2nds 2024 Adelaide Crows SANFL thread

[Cap]

If the selectors are on the money nank must be the first cab off the rank for selection next week. He was a class above today. His ability to change direction and turn defence to attack was in high evidence

who do you think, injuries aside, gets a gig this year first

Dowling or Taylor ?

Maybe Billy but at this stage both are not close. Taylor needs to use the ball better than he has in recent weeks which is weird because that has been his one wood. Billy has to get more of his own ball and start dominating games more at SANFL level to get over players like sholl jones etc

 

[Sanders]

No we can't. We have to be seen to be trying to win games. This means we are limited to what we can and can't do with development. Not sure why you are chasing me with this when the club has actually said this and so has port adelaide.

There’s no truth to this, and no restrictions on where we play people or the positions in which we choose to deploy them

 

[azza77]

You’d hope Dowling and Taylor could reach a level of AFL capability this year, too. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Edwards get a few games

I actually forgot about Dowling my bad.

Very undecided on hear. Suggested Caleb Daniel in the List Management Thread and people are still convinced he doesnt have a palce at AFL level and is exposed in the 6-6-6 system.

Bloke was the half time Norm Smith Medallist in the Dees vs Dogs GF, so I would beg to differ. Not saying you specifically, but yeah some people have some high hopes on Taylor still (im still less than convinced) and yet some here think Caleb doesnt have a role at AFL level for being too small.

But yes agreed, Dowling is one player I did forget about on the depth chart. Still though, his trajectory was looking good as a first year player, but he has stalled a tad. A huge engine and good marking game makes him suitable for the modern winger, still a little bit unsure on the consistency of his kicking/foot skills so far.

[crows dude]

You think the Himmelberg in defence experiment is over already?

No but I couldnt think of anyone else to go forward. Maybe Murray

 

[crows dude]

Murray has been a Forward/Ruck coming through the U18's at the Bushies so if the experiment isn't over it would likely be the case.

It maybe a good centre line, but I would be very surprised if Sholl and Curtin are are not swapped.

Some interesting players for the Eagles too top draft prospect Kade Herbert, Charlie West one of very few decent Key Tall Forward prospects in this draft and former Giants listed defender Cam Fleeton.

EAGLES
(1) Luke McKay, (2) Zac Buck, (3) Kade Herbert, (4) Cameron Fleeton, (5) Adam D’Aloia, (8) Will Neumann, (10) Connor Ballenden, (17) Patrick Weckert, (18) Luke Beecken, (19) Bailey Hann, (23) Sam Nicholls, (24) Sam Rowland, (26) Josh Mawson, (28) Jordan Moore, (31) Charlie West, (32) Ryan Bruce, (37) Nathan Barkla, (39) Jack Firns, (40) Brody Mair, (43) Noah Angove, (44) Callum Fairall, (51) Max Lister, (62) Griffyn Hansen

The Eagles fielding a lot of reserve players from the look of it. Resting players for Rd 1.

 

[Ciao Giacomo]

Are we really going to keep Parnell out in case there is a late, late change tonight?

Is Bond injured?

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Anyone know if the match is being telecasted. It's not on the SANFLNow app atm.

There may be a rough stream on SANFLNow, but the link probably won't be live until tomorrow

 

[Eagleboy2011]

No they dont telecast trial matches

All trial matches were televised last week on SANFL now. I was hoping todays would be.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Last weeks against Sturt was because I watched it and so did others, in fact if you're a subscriber their still up on the SANFL Now to watch.

I think it's free until the 1st of April.

Was it on live?
I was hoping to sit and watch this one leading into the AFL game, but I can't find it on SANFL Now. Wondering if its one they put up there later.
