Game Day Practice Match up in QLD v the reigning premier

[FR0GGY]

Nicksy snags a win against a top side and it doesn’t even count

 

[MrBarry]

We are coming

 

[Crom]

Draper

 

[rocket18]

Ok. I’m happy we picked Draper

Imagine if our brains trust gave him a full game not less than a half.

Must be a lock for round 1.

 

[Pugsley]

That's how you win a tight one. Draper has sewed up his spot against St. Kilda. What a cool head-on young shoulders.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Give us the flag??

 

[Firewalker]

Zorko complaining to their pet umpires… the fact that grub has ended up with a premiership still doesn’t sit that well.

 

[Golumless]

This has been a pretty ideal preseason.

 

[CrowToon]

Where's the lid at

 

[footy4ever]

I've seen enough.

Book your flights.

 

[spenze]

Actually a pretty good game, good skills

 

[MRB37]

Slowed Dunkley and Neale down somewhat in the 2nd half which has been a big help. Liked the spread of contribution through the midfield too, not just relying on a big 4, but got the one obvious full timer in Crouch and then a series of players contributing.

Draper just has to play Round 1 after that though. 7 disposals and 4 clearances in that final term, 14 touches in 39% ToG, we shouldn't be holding him back.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Imagine if our brains trust gave him a full game not less than a half.

Must be a lock for round 1.

Tbh given the humidity, probably good not to give the kid a full game.

 

[AFC3000]

Undefeated this year.

Top of the ladder.

 

[Peter Doherty]

We've done a horrible job of icing this

Yeah the last couple of mins weren't great. We did kick the last 4 goals though, I'll take that at this point.

We take the 4 points and move on.

 

[Trigger13]

Pedlar was ok

 

[Pugsley]

What Nicksy should learn. WE DON'T NEED MURPHY.

 

[Redleg Crow]

TT uninjured, ditto Rankine and Dawson. Draper good preseason. Ticking boxes

 

[Crows I Am]

We have a good one in Draper looks all class already.

Good finish by us, Brisbane used more players and rotations but we managed to finish off stronger.

Few of our guys look pretty rusty still, will be much better after the run.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Love how they keep mentioning Milera like he is an easy best 22. Do they ever watch any games?

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Sheesh there were some negative nellys in here tonight who thought it was dry weather football against Shite team or something

Worrell , Nank , Draper , Peatling , Dawson
all good but most guys had their moments

Thilthorpe could be anything but needs to stop panicking any time he gets a niggle , unstoppable when he’s on

Huge effort with less rotations in that weather and the umps were worth 3 goals min

 

[StonesThrow]

Actually a pretty good game, good skills

I've just read through this thread and this is the opposite take to what I've read!

All I learnt was, skills terrible, umpiring bad and sid good

 

[Schulzycrow]

Although Pedlars disposal need fixing I would like him round one

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I think he can be better, gets out of position too often

Yep he can be the best contested mark in comp when he becomes complete player

Reckon he’s top 6-7 now

 

[Crom1995]

Aside from the positive news that we are going to win the flag, if someone like Nankervis or Bond misses matches for Rory Laird, I will spew. Absolute defensive liability who bombs the ball, yuck
