2017 Non Crows AFL Discussion Thread - Part IV A New Hope

[hey shorty]

Sam Gray with 6...... Yeah the Suns are garbage

 

[Shaz2012]

As good as we've been this year, possibly our best home and away season ever, if we lose tomorrow we will end the season with the same points as Danger's Geelong. And I thought they have been ordinary quite a few times. Depressing thought.

 

[The Karma Bus]

When Sam Gray is kicking 6 goals on you...

 

[mistylake]

Crows v Port qualifier by the looks, sounds better than Sydney.

 

[32Crow]

Nope, he said you have to weigh up the need to rest with the need for continuity. The match committee have decided that resting was the better option this weekend. There is no need to win this game.

nope, you obviously missed his presser before going over to Perth

 

[Niximus]

So its Richmond or Port yeah?

GWS or Port. Richmond basically impossible now.

Nah Tigs will beat the Saints at the G, too much riding on it for them, well play the Giants

Why is everyone assuming Richmond are going to lose ??

nah

Only way we get Richmond is a draw.

 

[Runnin Blue]

It'll be the Giants if Richmond win tomorrow

GWS or port

Ah, missed that. Still good. Better than Geelong or Sydney. Ball's in our court now.

 

[Gets!]

GWS or Port. Richmond basically impossible now.

Ah yep - just saw GWS percentage. Cheers

 

[officialjc]

richmond have to win tomorrow because if they do, they will play the geelong at the g and they are a big chance for a home prelim. if they lose, they will play essendon in a dramatic elim final and you can sense jobe kicking the sealer.

 

[Simmo28]

The GWS/Geelong game doesn't start until 7:25pm on Saturday. The result may not be known until around 10pm.

When does the team fly to Perth? My guess is that the GWS/Geelong game is too late for them to change who flies. Our SANFL team plays on Saturday afternoon - they're not going to pull half the team, on the off chance that Geelong pull an upset and make our game a dead rubber.

You can forget about Sauce, Sloane or Mrouch. They're all playing. The only player who could possibly drop out is Talia, depending on his fitness test today.

Off chance? [emoji12]

Pyke doesn't "rest", fact. those guys didn't come up, simple. if you want to believe your own story, no one is stopping you

You can bore ahead with your coincidence theory if you want.

We've already rested Greenwood once this season when he wanted to play.

 

[Ratkins]

Richmond are playing for a top 4 home final. Plus St Kilda gave them a hiding last time, they are not going to take tomorrow easy.

Richmond to win.

twist words if you like, you and I know we were talking about resting players leading up to finals

 

[AFC3000]

So Burgess is now racing back to prepare Port for finals?

Which we've done

 

[32Crow]

Which we've done

dream on

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Nah Tigs will beat the Saints at the G, too much riding on it for them, well play the Giants

I tend to agree

A Tigers win would also mean that they avoid travelling interstate in week 1 and will get virtually a home final against Geelong at the G

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Wingard: "A lot closer game than it looked."

Yep. Had some real heat. Was finals-like.

 

[hey shorty]

dream on

Don't need to. So if tomorrow WAS a final, do you agree they'd play ??

 

[Runnin Blue]

So, should I hazard a guess that the Port board is fapping right now over the fact that they will annihilate us in a final after they smashed the Gold Coast juggernaut?

I should wander over for a look. I have beer.
