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

[Beejay Crow]

Top 9 possession getters are all Melbourne

Mostly because of the Melbourne backline kicking sideways 5 times everytine they get the ball.

 

[Interloperer]

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!

They do, May just doesn't follow them. And the disposal entering 50 isn't good enough to exploit the free possession they get.

 

[FR0GGY]

Someone a while back said he doesn't have legspeed

Yeah he does

I think it’s leg length. Don’t think it’s the speed

 

[Southerntakeover]

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

So the result is important?

It wasn't the Captain of the Titanic's fault, the ship builders and crew let him down. Tell that to those whose relatives drowned.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

He looked like he did his ACL

Could be about a dozen different things and they would all look similar

 

[steve9798]

Hinge, one of my favorite players, decision making has gone to shit.

Nicks completely outcoached in the first quarter.

 

[Brenton Davy]

F50 entries have the Sanderson stench to them

 

[Mutineer]

I think Dawson possibly skies the ball more than Laird does, his once golden boot ain't golden anymore, just seems to hoof it as far as he can now.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Won centre clearances 6-0 that quarter after going 0-4 in the first

 

[SugarShane]

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

Less than a goal the difference. Kick the first and we're in front. Stage is set for a classic Crows give up a goal within a minute of the 3rd quarter starting.

 

[Cromulant]

He looked like he did his ACL

My first thought too.

But I have seen those end up being bad jarring, or maybe a patella tendon

 

[WetCrow1991]

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!

That would require some unheard of level of insight and endeavour that is only whispered of in dark corners on cold nights.

 

[Trigger13]

Could be about a dozen different things and they would all look similar

To me it had a real distinct ACL look about it. I hope I’m wrong obviously.

 

[Cromulant]

Dont think he came back out

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

We've shifted into finals mode

Did the same with the win-and-in Sydney game at home in 2023. That first half and today very similar.

Under pressure, it's what we revert to

 

[WetCrow1991]

Be great if Dawson had a big 2nd half.

 

[ams4crows]

I'm tempted to move Dawson forward and put Curtin in the middle with Soligo and Peatling

 

[dblstR]

Rash walking around the boundary knee strapped and hoodie on.

It’s Murphy time

 

[Moonwatcher]

F50 entries have the Sanderson stench to them

Felt like the 2nd half of the 2009 semi final to me.

 

[cleanhands]

For those that are watching their first game, it’s played over 4 quarters

 

[Mutineer]

 

[Redleg Crow]

Time for TT to show he is the man

 

[Brenton Davy]

Murphy not subbed on yet. Still got the training shirt on…

EDIT: Spoke too soon

 

[The Karma Bus]

F50 entries have the Sanderson stench to them

Ball movement in general in recent times is stinky too.
