Game Day Adelaide v Hawks on the fork - Adelaide Oval, 4:05pm Sat March 23

[Murray2503]

Gibbs just doesn't care

He doesn't hide it. Never wanted to be here. Always a Carlton player in my book.

 

[MRB37]

Players don't seem too upset with that effort. Speaks volumes.

 

[The Karma Bus]

Yes, but they didn’t and that gave US the chance. It was there to be won.

Heard that a lot of times when we miss out with our late little run. We weren't winning it. It was a fleeting little rush. Doesn't really matter either, we asked for and got what should have happened with our disinterest etc.

 

[Crowboto]

One of the more embarrassing losses.

All you do with poor forward structure, gave away 4 points.

Its the Crows way

 

[FR0GGY]

Bring on the ashes!

 

[mick500]

how many times must the club be burnt by those who have repeatedly shown they arent good enough?

Ask hartigan. About 7 years I reckon .

 

[Murray2503]

Cleanout end of the year. Only way forward. We are a ******* embarrassment as an organisation.

 

[earlsta]

can we please used hawthorn's selection as well as port's selection to realise that giving others a chance instead of selecting the same disappointments and losers isnt the worst thing in the world? how many times must the club be burnt by those who have repeatedly shown they arent good enough?

MacKay was half decent today imo, not bad considering he hasn’t even played a game this year

 

[Mismatched]

Pathetic. Mentally weak. The second there’s a little pressure our players lose their heads.

Hopefully a good wake up call and we can.

Also kudos to their AFL with their new rules, 4 games in, 4 ugly games and no side hitting 100 points. Give yourselves a pat on the back

 

[ams4crows]

Keath was excellent, Mackay justifying his selection.

we were poor, looked so unprepared, Clarkson tore us a new one

 

[Bicks]

5 Rory Sloane
4 Matt Crouch
3 Alex Keath
2 Daniel Talia
1 Jake Kelly

 

[FR0GGY]

At least we have Otten to come back in.

 

[baldandbroke]

What's our record against the Hawks in the last few years?

They always beat us.

Did we think they had forgotten how to beat us?

Clarkson did the same thing to us in the gf ... He just told Richmond how to beat us.

That lightning bolt sign = plan B?

Finally. That was our best 90 seconds of the match.

And who says cult style predictive programming hasn't got its place in AFL pre-season training.

It looked like our 2017 plan A.

Don I have a really good idea for you.

Look at Geelong, 6 debutants. Look at port. 4 first game players ffs. Our club makes excuses.

 

[AmericanCrow]

So, just wondering what excuse the excuse making players will be latching ono this year??

Camp to rough again for their poor little souls?

Let's not wait until week 10 to hear that something disagreed with them in the build up to the regular season like last year's team did.

Garbage effort garbage result,

But I am sure it was because someone made them run to much in the preseason

 

[rocket18]

we continue to persist with D grade assistant coaches, Pyke has no hope.

That's on him now, if he had some balls to make some tough calls he could have whoever he wants as assistant.

For him to persist with our same midfield coaches says a lot about Pyle.

 

[mistylake]

I’m coming down with the kids. Lads now, 11 & 13. For a mates 50th. We’re going to come a few days early to catch the Geelong game. I really hope we can find something this time as I am hard pressed getting my Qld born boys into the Crows if we keep losing every time I take them to a game. I really don’t want to have to revert to taking them to see the s**t teams for them to see a win.

 

[FAITH]

Campo has 'special' relationships with certain board members, pykie couldnt get rid of him even if he wanted to.

 

[Cap]

Wrong. He wanted to be here 2 years ago.

Its only round 1 but lets put the blame on the selections and recruiting. We are playing to many in the twilight of their careers. We gave up 2 first rounders expecting a 21 yo Gibbs. A bit early but we did not use our 3 first rounders to advantage. Port got rid of some dead wood and ended up with 5 first game players of quality. Jones will be good but somehow PA picks look better. W gave up our next pick 3 on a speculative Carlton pick. We picked up Galluci a few years back ahead of PA's Marshall and SPP. both of them are regulars. Menzel was give up for an early 2nd and player. Loss again. Were is our future at the moment.

One of those games where we lost it rather than the other team winning it, could sense early something was up

Are you kidding? Our recruiting is the least of our problems.

Tex has to go. Absolutely useless

Haha, melts in round one

 

[BACCS]

It was already rubbed in our faces on selection night.

Really? Mackay was the least of our worries and didn’t cost us the game.
