Gee, Worpel is a hard one to watch. He can be so impressive, then his next play is absolute :poop:. Going ok for what we payed for him though.

Oh, and how do the AFL say that every game was a sell out this round. Watched most games this weekend and there seems to be heaps of empty seats at most of the games. I guess they gave away so many free tickets and people couldn't be bothered showing up. Anyway, good for Adelaide though, would a good money spinner for the state.
Norwood Oval holds about 15000 which hosted two games and Mt Barker only held about 7000 I think it was, so it’s pretty easy to see them selling out. That and last night was a double header, I was there and I reckon a lot of the Melbourne and Essendon fans bailed out after those games as it was with rain. It was absolutely packed on ground level in the break between the two games and you could barely move, but a lot of the lower level seated areas were empty as they were in the rain. It was still probably three quarters full up to the top in the eastern stand where I was as it was under cover. Went to Friday night too which was pretty full and had a great atmosphere. Early word is it was worth at least $85 million to the city, from an investment of $20 million. Looks like we've secured it for another 3 years, which is great, it was an awesome weekend all around the city.
