Game Day Round 2 - Crows vs Puppies

[Texas13]

That butts miss... would have much preferred loosing by a point

The ONLY reason this result could be positive is if it forces Nicks to abandon his bs slow style and go fast.

It could end up being a blessing in disguise.

You reckon he'll change ?? Nah

It's frustrating to her Daws say post-game that we started playing 'our game' in the last quarter. If it's how we want to play, why don't we for the rest of the game?

 

[WetCrow1991]

Cheating pricks. We didn't help ourselves with the arse game plan. But **** me the umpring.

 

[Magma]

its not even worth getting angry or anything. we lose these types of games so often i just feel indifference to it

He thinks his he's a mastermind for constraining a team that could steamroll into close games.

Imagine if we played that aggressive fight back style all the time.

**** THIS CLUB IF WE'D PLAYED LIKE THIS ALL NIGHT WE WOULD HAVE WON!,

Very naive post.

 

[Texas13]

fml... 3/4 of crap footy only to almost win in the last, its going to be one of those years isnt it

 

[Betts are off]

I dont like blaming umpires. But if you told me they were playing a separate game of "Kill the Crows momentum at every possible chance" I wouldnt fight you on it.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

2 horror mistakes from senior players in Milera and Neal-Bullen cost the game in the last few minutes. Milera punching the ball to where 3 Bulldogs are standing and Neal-Bullen trying some dumb 2 metre kick instead of handballing.

No. Nicks cost us the game with his BS game plan in the first half

 

[Footypie32]

Ver naive post.

Great, Geelong in Geelong coming up and they are coming off a bye.

 

[Danger Zone]

**** THIS CLUB IF WE'D PLAYED LIKE THIS ALL NIGHT WE WOULD HAVE WON!,

Yikes...

 

[Magma]

and yeah the umpiring sucked, but guess what? it'll suck next week too. and the week after that. it just depends who it sucks for.

 

[thebirdman 24]

Are we going to miss Ah Chee?

Hasn't done anything in two games besides a good spoil.

He is a good communicator and a good bloke by all accounts, but he lacks the killer instinct and tactical awerness of Mcrae or C. Scott

This is Nicks SEVENTH season, surely he shouldn't still be learning??

How come most of us can see what doesn't work and yet he can't??

The problem is according to the players, they are not intending to play this way apparently.

Been dissapointing so far, but early days.

I wish he kicked it too but blaming our fullback for not kicking a goal...

yeah true... but from there?

 

[mcleod at 50 lines it up]

Either nicks is a genius that protects a team that doesn't have the speed or midfield and unleashes them for a quarter, or he's a stubborn dumbass that holds the team back with his dour defensive game plan. I think it's probably the first one.

That hack kick did cost us a goal, he is definitely prone to some ordinary decision making unless he has a very straight forward option.

Some poster know him personally and say he is very stubborn so he thinks this is the way to play.
