Review Round 1 v St Kilda: Sunday 17 August @ RSEA Park

[Firewalker]

Well as Dennis Cometti used to say on the old AFL video games; “they look to still be on Adelaide time”

 

[Crow-eater]

Kelli calling Jess Allan, Sarah twice now

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Moorabbin not looking quite as threatening as I remember

Grass and picnic rugs
Not the animal enclosure

Some of our girls look like they spent pre-season dining at our sponsor's establishment.

 

[Firewalker]

Well the positive is the ball movement is ok, and they’re are doing everything pretty right until they have to enter the abyss (the forward line)

 

[ContrarianCrow]

Kellie Underwood has named the wrong Allan sister every single time. Great way to represent the product.

 

[1990crow]

Am I allowed to say Hatchard doesn't look fit..

 

[Firewalker]

Somebody’s put the replay of last years match against the saints.

Dal Santo 1 goal up and goes the flood.


Newman playing a heck of a 1st quarter it must be said.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

They protect the player first in for the ball better in AFLW than in AFL

 

[ContrarianCrow]

Lachlan MurphyRachelle Martin showing that elite tackling pressure we value so highly.

 

[Firewalker]

Am I allowed to say Hatchard doesn't look fit..

I’ve never thought wearing long socks helps you appear exactly quick or svelte, but given her foot injuries over the years I don’t she’s been at peak fitness for at least a few years

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Fumbly

 

[Firewalker]

No holding the ball when St Kilda just drop the ball today

 

[mtbkym]

Underwood is pathetic, at least know who is who if you’re calling the game!

 

[cmndstab]

Crows seem to be looking for short kicks more often than previous years, probably a good option, but still struggling to connect with the forward line.

Very fumbly when going for ground balls. Need to tidy up on that.

Kellie Underwood has named the wrong Allan sister every single time. Great way to represent the product.

Who was the other commentator that said it was Munyard that missed the tackle, when it was clearly R.Martin.
Kellie also said R.Martin is the shortest player in the AFLW and then says something like, she's 177cm? She's 1.53m.

 

[cmndstab]

Martin is unfortunately just totally ineffective nowadays. Other players can easily break her tackles, and then just run away from her.

 

[Firewalker]

Well that’s pretty much what I expected, Hatchard (whatever her issues) is big problem in that midfield nowadays, Newman looks good, Gould has half a dozen to beat, Martin is too small to play in the league anymore and Grace Kelly shouldn’t be out there.

Rasheed looks alright, get no reward for tackling, big problem is the defence looks slow at ground level with the land of giants back there.

Looks like a few of our players spent more time 'training' with Rioli instead of Burgess in the off season.

 

[Firewalker]

Also Saints want to win the game I’ve seen only little evidence on field the Crows actually do.

 

[1990crow]

Looks like a few of our players spent more time 'training' with Rioli instead of Burgess in the off season.

It's a bit disappointing if I'm being honest. The women want to be paid more, and I'm all for equality but the league needs to start having standards of fitness as non negotiable if they really want the league to be more popular.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

What did we give up for Ewings?

 

[Firewalker]

Getting to the point I’d rather they played no forward line at all and just tried to run everything in and banned kicking inside 50.

 

[cmndstab]

Hatchard doesn't look right. Can't get going faster than a jog.

 

[cmndstab]

What did we give up for Ewings?

Essentially nothing. Some very late pick.

Edit: Pick 39, apparently.
