Also Thilthorpe was great. At the other end Dixon was great as well, while Marshall got absolutely towelled up.

The sack Ken Hinkely thread is going wild on the Port board.

I think I can safely say on behalf of the supporters of 17 other Clubs, that as a collective we all think Ken is doing a wonderful job.

Good time for a contract extension. :thumbsu:

Great game as a neutral at the ground. Atmosphere was electric.
Which is why it's so hard to understand why the AFL can't give this show piece game a stand alone nationally televised game?

This game shat all over the two games from Thursday and Friday night.

How many absolute classic games do these two teams have to play against each other before being given a chance?

I firmly believe there's more spite and hatred in the showdown than any other rivalry in the AFL.
 
Was there a reason given why this game wasn't played during Gather Round? It would've really given the showdown the national spotlight and be booked as the marque match of the round. Just feels like a missed opportunity
 
There are certain games a team can't win.. and this is one of them. The occasion and just where the team are at. Port by plenty.. you can just imagine the cringe rev up talk in the rooms when Hinkley and other pump them up about that guernsey they will be wearing. Crows have got no hope.. especially in an "away" showdown.
This aged well….
 
Is there a rumor going around that the crows are going to wear a state jumper tonight or is that an April fools gag?
Ok All You Power Bunnies…. You’ve had your fun with the Prison Bar Jumpers and you performed like crap in them(even with a few dubious goals from weak free kicks plus the free kick count in your favour)…… But the next Showdown is Our Home Game and there will be NO Prison Bars for you! But we will be wearing a version of the Croweaters State Jumper…. Drop Mic!
 
Good win bu the Crows but don't get to excited, they did only beat a SANFL team.
Twice yesterday actually.

We beat them in the SANFL by 78 pts.

Then in the AFL (or SANFL v2 if you like) by 31.

The wonderful thing is that franchise has nothing coming through. This is their all-in side for a flag and they got done by a bottom 6 club by a combined three digit sum.

What a rabble.

Do the crows actually have that much talent coming through? They have a few but im not sure either team have the youth to build towards anything meaningful.
