Round 7: Brisbane V Adelaide

[William C]

This is going to be an even contest.

However, looking at Adelaide's injury list compared to an in form Brisbane running team with home ground advantage ...

Lions mite edge home in a close 1

[scottyD]

My guess:

J.Brown 4.1
Notting 3.0

Burton 3.0
Stevens 4.0


Possesions:

Black 27

Edwards 32


Average guns:

Brisbane will dominate in back line
Charman will win 80% of hitouts

Adelaides back line too strong for Brisbane- mccleod, johncock, van berlo
goodwin will have a great game with 28 possesions


Verdict:

Adelaide by 18

[Antonius]

Adelaide look alright in this one, they could sneak home.

[- PC -]

<shrug> who knows

While Brisbane ended up winning by 45 points I think Freo laid down after the 24 point margin was reached...but you cant dispute Brisbanes position on the ladder ...Adelaides position can be put down to injuries....but I think tonight is the start of a turnaround and the Crows by 15 points

[- PC -]

Go Crows !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fire up people

[Zarko]

My guess:

J.Brown 4.1
Notting 3.0

Burton 3.0
Stevens 4.0


Possesions:

Black 27

Edwards 32


Average guns:

Brisbane will dominate in back line
Charman will win 80% of hitouts

Adelaides back line too strong for Brisbane- mccleod, johncock, van berlo
goodwin will have a great game with 28 possesions


Verdict:

Adelaide by 18
Goody and Burton carrying too many niggles to 'dominate'


Isnt Stiffy still injured :p

Adelaide will bite back with the pass our talk but shouldnt be able to get close enough IF Brissy is on song


I tipped Brissy




Saying that, Crows by 2-4 goals

stiffy?

[Zarko]

stiffy?
Johncock

[scottyD]

maybe... dunno but they are too strong

[Bobby Beecroft]

Backing the Lions 39+
Has been a big concentration into gaining the home ground fear back at the GABBA, over the pre-season.
Too many Crows not right at the moment, see no reason why this will not be similar to other games at the GABBA so far in 2007.

Good Luck all.

[Snuka]

Anybody got a url to link to the SEN coverage of this game? GameDay live only lets you link to 5AA but I was listening to the prematch on SEN and the it just switched to 5AA (nothing against them but not sure I can cope listening to the Adelaide-centric commentary:o).

[DonMania#5]

Any late withdrawals?

[Rory]

This is a Brisbane home game isn't it :confused:

[SorryIHammerChicken]

I'm going for the Lions here, reckon they can get over the line. Adelaide are a bit underrated though - they're paying 2.36 which is a bit high I would have thought.

[SorryIHammerChicken]

This is a Brisbane home game isn't it :confused:
I take it you think Adelaide are no chance whatsoever?

[Rory]

I take it you think Adelaide are no chance whatsoever?

No, Brisbane are wearing their clash strip.

[Crow-eater]

I reckon the crows in a close one 12 pts

[SorryIHammerChicken]

No, Brisbane are wearing their clash strip.
Ahh OK. An ordinary clash strip it is too. :thumbsd:

[Snuka]

Bris starting with Brown, Charman & Patful in the forward line.

[kimirocks]

Fire up boys.

[Snuka]

charman goal...got to much height on Stevens if they can get it to him.

[Crow-eater]

Brisbane get the first through Charman

Bris 1.1.7
Adel 0.0.0

[Crow-eater]

Notting with brisbane's second

[Crow-eater]

Goodwin with the crow's reply

Bris 2.1.13
Adel 1.0.6

[kimirocks]

Stupid decision, but a lucky break I guess. :)

[bus24]

One of the worst decisions this year, that was terrible Chelsea.

[kimirocks]

Thommo. Game on.

Bris 2.1.13
Adel 2.0.12

[Crow-eater]

Thommo with another from a free

1 pt ball game

[jasrocks]

Finally getting a bit of umpiring our way :) lol

Seriously crap decision but that's footy. I've done that a couple of times playing footy but still called a goal, so oh well...

[Monkster]

That was definitely a goal, if he had touched the ball would have changed trajectory enough for the goal umpire directly in front of it to notice.

[kimirocks]

Edwards misses slightly.

Bris 2.1.13
Adel 2.1.13

Come on boys.

[jasrocks]

Mattner been good early.

edit: oh ffs, that wasn't holding the ball against him

14-13 brisbane

[jasrocks]

Goodwin kicks his second

[Crow-eater]

Goody with his second from 50

Bris 2.2.14
Adel 3.1.19

[RoosterLad]

Go Goody!!

[kimirocks]

Go you good thing!

[Adam BK]

Great work goodwin

[jasrocks]

Great work Goodwin. 50 to Welsh who slots it from the goal square

[kimirocks]

C'mon Welshy. :)

[Crow-eater]

Welshie from point blank range slots it

Adelaide by 10

[jasrocks]

Mattner seems to be playing free? He is in nearly every contest inside the front half for Brisbane. Great game so far!

[Crow-eater]

Johnson gets one back for Brissie

Bris 3.5.23
Adel 4.2.26

[Snuka]

Bassett sounds like he is really mopping up well down back. Although sounds like the entries haven't been too clean.

[RoosterLad]

Both teams have kicked poorly into their forward line but Bassett has been very good, he reads the play well.

Good first quarter though.

[Crow-eater]

QTR Time

Brisbane 3.6.24
Adelaide 4.2.26

Adelaide going in to the first change with a 2 point break.

[kimirocks]

We're providing a contest. I am happy for the moment.

[bus24]

IMO best players

Brisbane: Black, Notting

Adelaide: Goodwin, Knights

[notting18]

A good first quarter, would be a lot better if we kicked a little straighter but i think it may just be a little to free-flowing for my liking. Adelaide are missing their targets with the 2nd/3rd kick from a kick in, but i dont think we can assume that will last all game.

I think Poss would have been our best player that quarter!

[Crow-eater]

Knighta!!

Adelaide gets the first major

[Total Power]

Come on lions...LIFT

[Crow-eater]

Johnson lining up............................ and its touched

[maccas_no1]

Scores????

[Crow-eater]

Bris 3.8.26
Adel 5.2.32

[CrowTwig]

Brisbane wasteful in front of goal. Should be in front.

[jasrocks]

Bock misses

33-26

[CrowTwig]

I hate this ring a ring a rossie sh1t. Really ruins what was looking to be a fair cracking contest.

[kimirocks]

So far so good on the Jericho front.

[jasrocks]

Griffen goals after confusion. Called touched FFS. Learn to umpire jerks!

[Crow-eater]

Umpires delibarating ends up as a rushed behind for the crows.

replay show a goal

[jasrocks]

Knights hits the post

[kimirocks]

Umpires Are ****ers

[kimirocks]

My god, how good is Knighta. He is stepped up this season, and I reckon would be top 3 in our B&F up to now. Finally starting to curb the errors, and is looking to be a star. Well in boy.

[jasrocks]

Adelaide plays around with it and Brisbane goals through Notting. What the hell was Rutten thinking?

[Crow-eater]

Notting gets a goal from a turnover

Bris 4.8.32
Adel 5.5.35

[jasrocks]

My god, how good is Knighta. He is stepped up this season, and I reckon would be top 3 in our B&F up to now. Finally starting to curb the errors, and is looking to be a star. Well in boy.

Knights playing his best game for AFC, I reckon Mattner is also. Seems to be in every contest still like I said

[kimirocks]

Crows Are ****ers :)

[Snuka]

Stupid decision, but a lucky break I guess. :)

Umpires Are ****ers

Chelsea gets the benefit of the doubt does she?;)

Wish I could bloody watch the thing. Sounds like a ripper.:thumbsu:

[jasrocks]

Point to Jericho. 37-32, bad decision there. Plenty of options for the last gamer

[Adam BK]

FFS ducks

[jasrocks]

Brown ducks and gets one for high. Starting to get to its usual crapness for us again. He goals

[Crow-eater]

Brown ducks his head gets a free and he slots it

Bris by 1 pt

F$%$#n umpires

[kimirocks]

Does it look like I'm watching the game bud? I only have the benefit of audio streaming.

Umpires are always ****ers. And I'll call it as I hear it, both decisions were wrong, as I hear it.

[jasrocks]

Scores level. 5.8 (38) a piece.

[jasrocks]

Shirley goals. 6.8 to 5.8

[kimirocks]

SHIRLEY. A very important goal. :)

[Crow-eater]

Robbie Shirley scores on the run from 50

Half time
Bris 5.8.38
Adel 6.8.44

Purely tongue in cheek mate.:thumbsu:

I've got to listen to 5AA as a Brissie supporter, and you know depending on what station you listen to, some decisions are 'wronger' then others.;)

[kimirocks]

Well at half thime there is a bee's dick between them. Adelaide seem to be playing better than Brisbane, whom aren't taking their chances. Shaping up to be a great second half. Wouldn't be surprised if it went either way. Adelaide might just run out of steam. But I hope not.

[notting18]

I think the crows probably deserve to be up at this point - although i also feel brisbane should be in front if we were playing at our best. I am not sure, as i dont watch too many crows games but i think that the lions have more possible improvement to come in the second half than the crows. Especially if we can get someone to give Browny some freedom in the forward 50 - he is playing 1 on 2/3 at the moment (A time which confirms how much we miss Bradshaw!)

[RoosterLad]

Crows in front, I would never have picked that but we are doing well so far, a long way to go.

[jasrocks]

Best five for both sides in no particular order:

Adelaide
Edwards
Knights
Hudson
Mattner
Stevens

Brisbane
Notting
Adcock
Sherman
Black
Lappin

[SA HAWK]

God adelaide play boring football.

[Total Power]

God adelaide play boring football.

Thank god TEN is showing the Sydney match.Even sydney is more interesting than those basketballers.:thumbsd:

[jasrocks]

Well if Brisbane didn't flood we would have gone forward quicker :D

[kimirocks]

God adelaide play boring football.Run along, child.

[roostersgal4eva]

Brown ducks his head gets a free and he slots it

Bris by 1 pt

F$%$#n umpires
welsh got a 50mt for no apparent reason - so i wouldnt complain

[SA HAWK]

Run along, child.So you like that low scoring defensive crap do you? If that's what turns you on.

[SA HAWK]

Thank god TEN is showing the Sydney match.Even sydney is more interesting than those basketballers.:thumbsd:Unfortunately channel 10 and foxtel are both showing the brisbane vs adelaide game in s.a.

[kimirocks]

So you like that low scoring defensive crap do you? If that's what turns you on.I'll happily watch it.

Perrie, I love him almost as much as Diego.

[Crow-eater]

Pezza!!! kicks truely

Bris 5.8.38
Adel 7.8.50

[roostersgal4eva]

Pezza!!! kicks truely

Bris 5.8.38
Adel 7.8.50
oh ****

[kimirocks]

Griffo, kicks a point, but you have to think, how are Maric, Meese and Tippy going to get a look in with the way the kid is playing. Enigma (slight exaggeration.)

[don vito of fitzroy]

Well if Brisbane didn't flood we would have gone forward quicker :DYou guys love it more than anyone else.

[roostersgal4eva]

[Crow-eater]

THOMMO!!!!

Bris 5.8.38
Adel 8.10.58

[roostersgal4eva]

[jasrocks]

Bock marks, 35 out directly in front. He snicks it home. 64-39

[kimirocks]

ok im starting to get nervousThere's much reason to get nervous. They're gone. Hopefully.

Bock kicks the goal, 24 points up. Goodbye.

[Crow-eater]

Bock lining up.................................. drills it

Bris 5.9.39
Adel 9.10.64

[wishiwas]

Someone shoot Stephen Rowe. He is a shocker of a commentator.

Great start to the 2nd half though.:thumbsu:
