Preview Showdown 49: Round 8, 2021 vs Adelaide

[GremioPower]

They will throw everything they have at us. Q1 will be competitive. After that, we should take control of the match.

We are going to win. The question is: will we play good enough to run them over?

If we don’t play well, the final score might be close. Only if we play really bad (Saturday level or worse), they might have chance to pull an upset.

I don’t believe we are going to be that bad in consecutive weeks.

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

Gutted if they drop Rowe, though he is the type to have that once in a blue moon game.

 

[ploppy]

We seem to get real fumbly when the ball is wet. If it’s wet we should forget the game plan and just play wet weather football. Soccer it , knock it forward , basic down the line stuff.

If he plays and kicks multiple goals I'd just about give up, he's about as quick as Rocky on crutches.

 

[Marmozet]

They’ll be competitive at least I think

 

[StuMan]

I want Fogarty to play so Rozee can pull Flog's jumper over his head again.

 

[Crocodile Dumbdee]

Massive danger game if it is.

How is this a massive danger game? Give me one believable reason. You wet your little single bed every round every year. How do you even support this club and team?

Adelaide Vs Geelong Round 1.
We can't play in the wet
We are playing injured players
This is Adelaide's grand final.


I've tipped us almost every week this year. Go back and have a look. We should get the job done but if they start really well we're in trouble..

Yeah - probably not.... But I've seen us lose the unlosable to potatoes before especially under Ken.

Fair to say I am sticking my neck out here?

Every team in the AFL or any other league for that matter has lost the unlosable since I can ever remember. Just stop fcng sprouting it out week in week out like you do. RUOK??

Where is this coming from?

 

[Schulzenfest]

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

No, they took him ahead of Duursma.

...

They took Chayce Jones ahead of Butters

 

[Eighteen Seventy]

I just hope we don't take them lightly.

 

[JohnHinckleyJr]

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

What about the Richmond game ? Nelly

 

[Steve Dore]

Another wet game...oh great

0-2mm, that's barely more than a heavy dew (not the Stewie variety)

No need to start build an ark just yet.

 

[finbarr]

No, they took him ahead of Duursma.

...

They took Chayce Jones ahead of Butters

Sorry. It's easy to lose track of which young potato of theirs is which.

 

[finbarr]

Where is this coming from?

The same place of myths that says "Travis Boak is slow", probably.

Geelong hadn't even gotten out of bed in round 1 and figured that no matter how far they got down they could still easily come back, they took the win for granted. What they didn't expect was the umpires to basically rule every single decision in the tingles favour to keep them in front.

I miss Hartigan

 

[Ljc_86]

After that crap in Brisbane I’m expecting a 100 point win.

Playing group owes us that sat through and watched that whole game some magic.

 

[Freak Dodgeball Accident]

No, they took him ahead of Duursma.

...

Could you just imagine Butters at the Crows? Straight to the top of the most hated players list. That s**t-eating grin of his... Such a punchable face. So glad he's ours

 

[GoTheMightyCrows]

As bad as the cows are this is their grand final so will come out pretty determined, smash them on the inside and we'll win easily but if we let them gain a bit of confidence they might create a bit of doubt in our players minds after last weeks bad performance. In saying that we should win by atleast 6 goals.

 

[Memphis]

If we don't win this one I'll be making an appearance in the 'Sack' thread.

No reason whatsoever to drop points here. None!

The Crows are a terrible football team atm.

The only way i see us dropping points in this game is if we wear the prison bars.

 

[backtozero]

I want us to beat them so badly that they're forced to contemplate sacking people.
