Game Day Crows v Hawks 7:10 AO

[TubbsFarquhar]

Let's be honest, they've been dogshit since the Showdown win. McQualter laid out the blueprint to beat them, but the Eagles just lacked the fitness and class to get the job done.

Nicks hasn't adapted and isn't the type to do so. Sack him and be done with it, the team is going nowhere under him.

 

[The Karma Bus]

It's not just lack of composure, we looked physically cooked. Nicks failed to mentally prepare the group and failed to rotate players. McRae was absolutely spot on when he said we peaked too early.

I was saying tonight, some of the other coaches were watching us thinking "gee they're going hell for leather, that won't pay off in the long run sweet summer children. They'll learn the hard way"

 

[MrBarry]

I could have swallowed a loss if we took it on, but this is absolute garbage again, just shit football got 2 weeks straight.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Seriously WTF is Keane doing. This could be one of the worst games I’ve ever seen

 

[Country_Crow]

How the hell did we finish on top? We are playing like a bottom 4 side. Lol

The form line coming into finals wasn't overly optimistic, just getting over WC and NM looking likely to lose either.
Outperformed expectations this year imo but thereabouts from here hopefully afterthe side now seeing the difference in finals, just need to see some fight to believe instead of being insipid muppets

 

[Drummond]

and what a ****ing bed shitting from nicks making rachele the sub. a side that needed a lift, a bit of energy, makes him sub. read the room baldy.

Staggering decision.

 

[LoBu]

Can bang on Tex all you want

Fact is he outperformed both Thilthorpe and Fogarty so far in Finals

Which speaks volumes

What are you talking about? I just said he was sick today when I saw him.

Agreed, it's just a loser mentality from Nicks. Same as last week with bringing in Max and not dropping Bond. He needs to make a call and back it in. If Rach is fit he should be starting, just a waste of time putting him as sub.

2 home.finals
Time in front to get the crowd in it
0.0.minutes

We were in front last week, not for a huge period of time, but we were in front.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Hard to reconcile that this is the same team that was flying two months ago. Genuinely reckon we'd struggle to beat Essendon in a final playing like this.

If anyone is going to be the team to break Essendon's finals wins drought, it's the Crows.

Yep. Went hard for a meaningless accolade. This is what happens when your entire club has no finals chops.

 

[FR0GGY]

Seasonal flu haha

Football season

Finals flu

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Hawthorn are gonna do what Collingwood did last week and kick 3 quick goals at the start of the third quarter. Game over.

 

[George CantStandYa]

You have to bring on Rachelle now otherwise you shouldn’t have played him.

 

[ams4crows]

Far out its hard to watch us play atm. We just seem to be lacking in confidence all over the ground. We are not taking any risks and second guessing ourselves so often which is leading to these stupid turnovers.

If we don't change it up quickly Hawks will come away with a pretty easy 5-6 goal win tonight.

But why has our confidence shriveled up?? We were fine 6 weeks ago and now we have no idea where the goals are.

 

[AmericanCrow]

What are you talking about? I just said he was sick today when I saw him.

Fair enough thought it was a shot at him

 

[Moonwatcher]

May as well attempt to make it a shoot out because whatever we are doing now doesn't allow us to score

This is the shoot out

 

[Tyls83]

i've stuck by this mob for 20+ years of trash, but i'm pretty much done. The players and coaches still cop their 500k+paychecks.. but i'm the one who will have to cop all of the trolling and abuse whilst i work my arse off for a fraction of what any of them get paid, because back in the day I was proud of my footy team.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

That call on Crowcast that we were building a squad of big game players is looking pretty shaky.

 

[George CantStandYa]

Nicks COTY.

You morons. What did I say???????

 

[Scorpus]

But why has our confidence shriveled up?? We were fine 6 weeks ago and now we have no idea where the goals are.

It's Nicks. He is a scared little loser

 

[Country_Crow]

Have to go shoot out mentality now and stop hitting it up the wing, not our strength. Take the game on with movement, that's when they are exposed.

 

[MRB37]

We've done nothing but flash the T on the sidelines all half.

 

[The Karma Bus]

Does anybody wonder why Berry attends centre bounces ?
I assume he’s watching somebody but for fk sake move man! Move!!

He'll play ok again against mediocre opposition teams and players and then we'll hear again how he's actually a good player.

 

[Alwaysacrow]

Where is our attacking football? We need to take chances NOW or it will be too little too late.
