Game Day Crows vs Demons, Rnd 17, Sunday July 6th, 2:45pm

[Moonwatcher]

Thilthorpe needs to lift as do others.

Delivery the issue I think.

[ams4crows]

We're about to blow top 4

We are 5 points down at half time, we haven't blown anything yet still a whole half to go to regroup and play better

 

[Scorpus]

I know why Melbourne are playing so well

Petty isn't playing

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Top 9 possession getters are all Melbourne

 

[WetCrow1991]

Isn't that exactly what you're doing?

It isn't an ACL, his leg is haunted by a spooky ghost. Trust me, I read John Who posts.

 

[Cromulant]

Curtin really got us going with Rankine and Soligo putting us on their back that quarter.

Someone a while back said he doesn't have legspeed

Yeah he does

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Delivery the issue I think.

Our forwards need to hard tag their 6 defenders so that we can get near our F50 entries

 

[NSolis]

Hard to gauge if this is one of those shit happens games or a shit happens but we escape with it one.

Feels like a likely win based on the last 10-15 mins there but it's definitely a hard game to judge. Pretty awful first 1.5 quarters.

Well, they are playing that keeping away style which Nicks didn't seem to want to man up until the last 10 minutes of that quarter after we were 28 points down.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

I'm not sure what the first 10 minutes of that quarter was about. We just allowed them to do have a training run.

Thankfully we flicked a switch, but still need to tidy up. Keays should've ran in and kicked a regulation drop punt, but had a rush of blood.

 

[steve9798]

Soligo, Peatling, Rankine keeping us in the game. Dawson okay. Alot of passengers.

 

[ams4crows]

Why can't our talls take May further up the ground and try and get our smalls in behind? Works for Collingwood and Geelong a lot!

 

[Cromulant]

We've tightened up those uncontested marks in our F50

 

[WetCrow1991]

Swap forwards and defenders.

 

[Southerntakeover]

There's a level of hell just reserved for the people who stand in the thoroughfare under the stands just hanging out at half time

 

[Trigger13]

Looked like he jarred it when was watching live.

He looked like he did his ACL

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

30-21 I50's. Clean that up and we can win

The count is in our favour.

We’re getting it in there, the delivery has just been dogsh!t

 

[CrowToon]

Key forwards are responsible for kicking goals and he has 2.

Well good luck coaching teams with Rachele competint and Tex roving

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Need to clean up our forward entries, don't let them have a spare down there and lift the intensity.

Taylor starting to worry me.... Just hasn't showed anything when he's been in the side.

Need Dawson to lift as well.

Leave Rankine forward, I would try Max or Hinge in the middle as a rotation. Even give Curtin a few CBAs in the third. Really mix it up.

 

[Crowman32]

We have so many players who have been really poor today. 215-136 possessions is a smashing in general play.

 

[CrowToon]

Isn't that exactly what you're doing?

Nah I know best

 

[WetCrow1991]

Feels like a likely win based on the last 10-15 mins there but it's definitely a hard game to judge. Pretty awful first 1.5 quarters.

We have the 3rd quarter nap time coming up where Melbourne can push the margin out again.

 

[adelaidecrows]

this has the smell of the 2023 Essendon Game all over again.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Top 9 possession getters are all Melbourne

They played lots of kick to kick.
