AFL 2018 - R1 - Essendon v Adelaide, 7.10pm, Etihad Stadium

Who is missing for Crows?

Don't say Smith, he's gone for the year. Who's coming back?

Tex, Brad crouch, lynch off the top of my head. Pretty crucial players. plus a few more.

media talking the dons up as contenders no chance soft as butter

Jake Stringer's spread and second efforts are extremely poor. Either unfit or lazy.

Extremely poor is kind. Woeful is a better word.

 

[The 747]

Doedee been good.

Yeah looks a player

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Jake Stringer's spread and second efforts are extremely poor. Either unfit or lazy.

I turned the game on halfway though th first and i apart from a great score assist I haven’t seen him do anything at all really.

 

[Rack Watts]

Bombers at home down 20 at 3 qtr time against a team missing 7 of their best 22.

And these are our new premiers?

Pre season Vic media at its finest

I cannot stress the importance of Zach Merrett to our team. I'd prefer to not have Daniher for the night over him.

 

[theyellowsash]

You gave more evidence to support my point, so why do I need to apologize?

The rule I quoted clearly shows it was the wrong decision

Especially with stringer what a bust

He’s unfit because he’s lazy.

Must say I’m loving the roof being open. Hopefully we see it if there’s any more balmy winters nights

only round 1 I guess, put fantasia and merrett back in

 

[TiAn_]

If the Crows had a full side this would be very ugly already.

 

[Bic]

Essendon purists must be spewing that Oliver was just one pick away... would fit his team SO perfectly. Exactly what they’re missing.

 

[Luv_our_club]

Accepted good man. It's not often someone on the internet admits they were wrong haha.

The Umpire called a goal.

The video was inconclusive.

Correct decision.

 

[CrowsFlag2018]

Who is missing for Crows?

Don't say Smith, he's gone for the year. Who's coming back?

Tex, Brad Crouch, Lynch, Knight lock 22.

Alex Keath, Gibson in the mix.

Smith i included but concede he isnt back for a long time.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

only round 1 I guess, put fantasia and merrett back in

sure then give the crows crouch/tex etc

 

[Rack Watts]

Some knee jerk bullshit in this thread.

Especially with stringer what a bust

Recently watched a highlight "package" of him on YouTube and was impressive. Problem is his best and worst is far to big a gap.

They are the team I see possibly sliding out of the 8 (WC are the team I see definitely sliding out)

 

[The 747]

Jenkins is the most overpaid player in history.

He would enrage me if I supported the Crows, massive man, Tex out, time to step up and he gets shown up by a first gamer who does what he should be doing.

 

[The King!]

I turned the game on halfway though th first and i apart from a great score assist I haven’t seen him do anything at all really.

hear his name more than you see him

 

[MrDanggazz]

Bombers seriously missing Fantasia, also merret going down early didn’t help, there goes most of there goals

 

[The King!]

sure then give the crows crouch/tex etc

don't disagree, I don't rate them, but early to call either way

 

[The Joker]

The rule I quoted clearly shows it was the wrong decision

He wasnt 100% sure, so by the laws of the game, made the call to go with the umpires call which is 100% the correct thing to do!

Reality is, you cant be 100% sure either, so it's just your opinion!
