Preview Showdown 49: Round 8, 2021 vs Adelaide

[EskimoPAFC]

I woke up this morning at 5.13 and the first thing I thought was Fantasia, 5 goals.

Thank me later when you collect your winnings

I reckon you've misinterpreted it.

Dan Houston, 13 goals.

Another wet game...oh great

Another wet game...oh great

We aren't normally too bad in the wet, especially at home, that doesn't concern me other than from a spectator point of view.

I’m going to do this

 

[Pickett4GOAT]

I'll be going to the game. I just want a great contest in which both teams put their bodies and skills on the line to create a wonderful spectacle and an intense tribal atmosphere.

[afl2004]

Not worried at all , we won't win the flag but we will kill some s**t kickers

Port with ease

What's the point then

 

[PAFC66]

Massive danger game if it is.

There isn't really , that's life

 

[Grave Danger]

lol - not content with stealing Collingwood's identity, apparently Kochie's been trying to steal the Crows'es hard earned underdog status for the Showdown

 

[malcheski]

Where has this BS come from that we aren't a good wet weather side? We are arguably one of the best wet weather sides in the comp, not to mention we basically play in the wet every second week.

As long as we turn up mentally, even in a monsoon, we will smash the Crows.

 

[Astronema]

I’m going to do this

he could give it a crack tbh, for ur sake i hope he doesn’t kick 4.5 or something XD

 

[Eighteen Seventy]

We'll learn nothing from this game the Crows are utter garbage

We've already learnt enough from the West Coast and Brisbane games. The learnings were not good.

 

[ibd77]

It's going to be a flat fogging. Crowd will be quiet & disinterested as the game will be like the St.Kilda clinical game.

However if the Crows show up and kick a 8 goal first quarter, vs our typical slow first quarter then all bets are off.

 

[dirty2]

Back in my normal seats this weekend!!!! Thank * for that.

I want us to beat them so badly that they fold in shame.

 

[Jonts]

Crows Will bring their high effort game they showed early, but with Tex back to running on half a tank it won't be as effective

Ports by 34

 

[charcolechaddy]

Anyone know where I can get a hot chicken in Yankalilla I’m hungry.

 

[finbarr]

It won't be wet, so stop wetting your pants over it.

They don't have that in them anymore. Sloane will give them an energy bounce for a quarter and a half or so and then they'll just die.

Round 1 was something they can't repeat, built on pure adrenaline and fresh legs.


On the other hand, the complete opposite could happen. The crows go bonkers crazy and Ned McHenry wins the medal.

Holy s**t if Ned McHenry wins the medal I’m checking the sky for the horsemen of the apocalypse

legit though he was a speculative rookie list pick and nearly s**t myself in laughter when I found out they used a first rounder on him

They took him ahead of Zak Butters, the player most of the mock drafts had the crows taking.

 

[JimmyBC]

They'll drop Rowe I reckon, I so wanted him & Fogarty playing it's like 2 men down from the first bounce.
