Rowey very upbeat. They won the last quarter!

He'd slash his wrist if he couldn't find a positive.

Melbourne paying about $1.50. Are GCS really that dependent on a 4 game player that Melbourne deserve to be strong favourites going into this

 

[Interstater]

It was good of the AFL to put Essendon and North on tonight.

Dan Houston said he was going to watch the game tonight before getting some sleep for the 4am wakeup.
I'm guessing he'll be asleep on the couch by quarter time

Disappointed by the sexism in this thread

All 5 of the Crows games since the season resumed are in their 20 lowest ever scores. The 6.0 (36) they scored in the first quarter of their R1 match against Sydney is higher than the total score in 4 of their next 5 games.

Sexism would be to overlook her failings because she is a girl.

 

[GoPorts]

Short memory?

Nah, I get it.
But Melbourne though

That's like the Julia Gillard dilemma:


You can't criticise her because she's a woman

or

You can't criticise her, because she's a woman

 

[PAFC_1870]

Nah, I get it.
But Melbourne though

Fair, but it takes a while to change things I guess

 

[Visenfest]

Oscar Allen had a stint in the ruck and toweled up O'Brien. Does that help?

Yep! Been at wineries in the Barossa so haven't been watching. Lol at him getting towelled up by Allen

I think she obviously sticks out more and this accentuates the focus.

I can’t imagine anything more “Adelaide Crows” than to somehow benefit on-field as a result of political correctness

 

[chachi11]

Saying Eleni umpired the game shithouse isn't sexism its fact....

 

[tangolikelama]

So excited to see Rankine

 

[PA88]

The crows got two goals that they shouldn't have ... and I keep forgetting to listen to bloody 5AA after their matches have finished! Damn it!

 

[It Just Is]

Gold Coast are clearly a better football team than Melbourne

 

[EskimoPAFC]

So apparently St Kilda is still St Kilda...

Lol good to know

 

[JimmyBC]

Rankine looks about 25yo

 

[tangolikelama]

HOLY MOLY

 

[Schulzenfest]

Rankine's just kicked goal of the week within his first 10 minutes of AFL football.

 

[GoTheMightyCrows]

Boy oh boy wowee

 

[DaTBird187]

Wow, fair start from Rankine.

 

[ROBBBO]

Wowee Rankine !!!

 

[Schulzenfest]

I don't want to go too early here but Izak Rankine is the best player in the league
