Crows although winning last week were a little disappointing and can not afford to give away the start they did against Brisbane, as the Cats will not run out of gas like Lions. Cats coming off the bye though and with game at Adelaide Oval crows should get up though.

Adelaide by 8 goals, Paddy to have 30+ and kick 5 goals along with his re-signing announced the Monday after the game ;)I can dream, can't I?

Cats to rebound with a solid win, should be a good game.

Not sure whats going to happen but with much sadness our coach Phil Walsh was killed last night by his son. Phil's wife was attacked also but isnt in a serious condition. I sit here absolutely stunned at the news. So sad RIP Phil God bless you.

I can't see how they could possibly play this game this weekend now.

I can't see how our players could possibly front up and play, looking at them walking into the club they all looked shattered.

I agree with this players would be in no condition to play this game even though it is a Sunday Game.  leave it to the AFL to sort out.

Share the points, let the Cats have them doesn't really matter as far as im concerned, can't play it. Im emotional so lord only knows what state the players are in poor buggers. They don't look good walking in as youd expect mate.

Part of me feels like this game shouldn't go ahead, but the other part of me thinks it should, to celebrate the life of Phil Walsh. The result won't be the priority, but although it would initially be an epic struggle for the players, once they get into the flow of the game, and with the crowds support I'm sure they will try their hardest for Phil and it could be a really special day

Geelong can have the points if they want. Would be shocked if there's a game.

Was looking forward to this one on Sunday too :/ can't say that for crows games too often

I reckon they'll probably still go ahead with it, but it won't be the same and the crows will get stuffed. The scheduling disarray caused by cancelling/postponing would suck.

I feel much the same RD part of me out of respect for Phil thinks maybe the game shouldn't be played and the other half of me is wondering what Phil would want and i sense he would want the boy's to play, his mantra was the game is more important than any individual and he was just one brick in a large building that is football. The players the club family and friends would know better and i'll leave that to them to decide what should or shouldn't happen as they would be the best judges of that and as supporters of the club and those of us that support other clubs and love footy we will have to respect whatever decision is made in order to  respect the man Phil Walsh husband father and the coach of the Adelaide Football Club.
I can't see how our players could front up Sunday which doesn't seem that far away and play a game of footy but i could well be wrong and that may be exactly what they want to do for their coach, time will tell mate.

They are saying it's most likely than not that the game will be cancelled and both teams will split the points
