Game Day Rd 12: Crows vs Dogs (@Metricon 12:35pm)

[BACCS]

At least he tried on the field and made a contest or offered a target when he was out there.

Tex has spent the last three seasons not trying.

That’s crap, stop making up shit

 

[crows dude]

Not always

People forget Modras bad games. He had plenty of them.

 

[VKCrow]

Starting to think Sloane's days in the midfield are nearly done, invisible today.

He needs to run off half back.

Mmm. Ok.

 

[GreyCrow]

Like what I've seen of Schoenberg, not lots of touches but seems dangerous and smart.

Would like to see him lift his eyes and look for a kicking option - but plenty of time for that

3/7 ratio should be at least 5/5 or better

 

[aabp1978]

As a pessimistic bastard, even I saw a few positive signs in that half. Schoenberg, McAdam, Pohlke, McPherson, Himmelberg all trying hard...Smith and Keays ok. Older players just letting them down at key times...that missed goal by Seedsman, Kelly, McKay, Hartigan have all cost us goals through awful play.

Makes Smithers goal even better.

Absolutely. Coming right of that corner going against his kick.

Like his last game for the crows when Blighty put him at half back because he wouldn't compete or chase?

 

[BACCS]

Talia stll no possessions. Everyone goes on about tex being lazy, what about talia. Get involved in the game and stop being a passenger.

Naughton is also slaughtering him

 

[FantasticShirt]

Walker is a disgrace and if he goes past Modra's goal record it should forever have an asterisk next to it, because Modra actually tried.

did you ever watch modra? stupid post.

 

[thebirdman 24]

Talia having no possesions isnt a bad thing necessarily. He is one whose effort is never under question.

What was the point of bringing in Hartigan and Kelly?

 

[jenny61_99]

Who is on Bontempelli?

No one from where I am.

 

[1990crow]

Sloane to half forward is the logical thing to do

 

[scoota10]

These players need to think about their Footy..Walker,Hartigan,Kelly,Seedsman,

 

[1990crow]

Tank

 

[GreyCrow]

Did Brodie Smith want to even try and stop that ball there?

Looked like he thought he was repaying Poholke and trying to avoid the ball

 

[Scorpus]

WB have one tall forward and he's kicked 4 goals even though we're playing all of Talia, Hartigan and Kelly.

Unforgivable

 

[Crow_Magnon]

Part of our play looks OK, but it's consistently the last disposal that ends up as a turnover, usually by being a poor decision (i.e. to a player under the pump), or our players like Stengle fumbling and coughing it up. Add to that the horrible misses by the likes of Seedsman and EH - when we do actually get a chance to score, and it's easy to see why we won't win a game this year. Not at AFL standard and not good enough.

 

[Magma]

at the very least the young guys arent getting worse. so there's that.

 

[robboaustralia]

Smart limbo by Poholke. Others would have grabbed at it.

Good team play and unselfish. Could easily have marked it to make himself look good. Most in his situation would have grabbed it to add to his stats.

 

[Bender20]

Scrutiny on the touched call has already begun.

Jenkins thinks it hit the post.

Wing where he can use his gut running between the arcs...getting pushed around in the centre today something awful, it's like he's lost his core strength.

 

[1970crow]

Sloane has had his moments, but they aren't in midfield

5 touches from 77% game time. Absolutely putrid. Tex 3 from 79%, just as bad. That's $1.7m in TPP providing what you'd expect from a second round selected rookie. And these guys are beyond criticism. They represent everything wrong with this club.
