2019 Non-Crows AFL Chat Part 2

[ThePrideOf]

Tom Lynch .. we have josh Jenkins... I am very sad right now

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Is Collingwood's form drop in line with Stephenson's suspension? He was certainly a key target in their attack.

Hasn't helped... loss of an in form player when they had the most dangerous forward mix & the media distraction.

Pies may only end up on 13 wins now & limp into the finals.

"you should of ended your...."

The man's illiterate.

fu** I hate that 'of' instead of 'have', slightly more than I hate the then/than confusion. I know the message still gets across, but FMD it hurts my eyes.






ok, rant over.

The worst example I have seen is someone who said “if they had of had...”

So you’re actually trying to say “if they HAD HAVE HAD...”. The same word (different tenses) THREE FRICKIN TIMES

All he needed to say was “if they had..”

Drives me up the frickin wall

 

[Grooster24]

The timing is uncanny

From what I can work out the rounds since he was suspended (which was during their bye round, R13)...
R14 W v Bulldogs - Buckley stated "the worst we've played" (prophetic[emoji4])
R15 L v Kangas 7 goals+
R16 L v Hawks by 4pts
R17 W v Eagles by 1pt
R18 L v GWS almost 8 goals
Now Tigers....

Prior was the bye and 10W2L, with their 2 losses being
R1 v Geelong
R11 v Freo by 4pts (2 games prior to the bye).
They had a run of 9 straights wins from what I can see.

Looks like they started to drop off a couple games prior to the bye and Stephenson's suspension.

Their drop off right now is eerily similar to our drop off mid-season when we had the 4 straight losses. Media and opposition fans started giving us the shits and players began losing confidence. Collingwood are in that headspace right now. If we count only the last 5 games, Pies might actually be in the bottom 4 teams, losing 4 of their last 5!

I am watching Richmond and feeling super jealous! They are strong all over the ground and play for the jumper and each other. You have to admire this

You forget the years of agony they went through to get here?

I doubt his suspension has helped though.

Stumbled on Classic Match on FoxFooty. 1997 semi final, North Melbourne vs West Coast. Dean Kemp's finest hour but in a losing team. My favourite non-Crows game of all time

My favourite non crows game is the West Coast vs Geelong 2006 @ Kardinia
Eagles down by 54 in 3rd quarter comeback to win by 3 points

Wash your mouths out and go stand in the corner.

2007 GF by the length of the Cheltenham straight. (see what I did there?)

I’ve actually never seen the game
Was living in the UK in 07 and 08
Remember getting up in the morning and checking the scores and laughing my head off

 

[Crows I Am]

That we will.

They get blown away in first halves, we don't turn up in the 2nd.

Should be fun

Could be in for another draw

That's paying $51 last time I looked.

Against Richmond i Reckon teams should be zoning off space in Richmond’s attacking half and stop bum rushing the player with the ball. You constantly see 2 or so players running at the Richmond player with the ball creating space in front for the overlap run. Allow one player to put pressure on the ball carrier and force a kick forwards into the attacking half.
Seems crazy to constantly chase the ball carrier.

Basically what we do at home.

Maybe he's remembering that they had the sense to have a significant external review, and bring in experienced quality football people from outside, to turn things around?

We went through years of agony too and got nowhere.

Anyone heard about a player manager teeing off on Fox commentator at a function yesterday (?)

Malcolm Blight used to call it “bees to a honey pot” and condemned it roundly

Shaun Burgoyne must be one of the greatest trades in AFL history

150+ games for 2 clubs.

Bernie Quinlan 178/187 Footscray/Fitzroy


Roger Merrett falls 1 game short 149 Essendon 164 for Brisbane

 

[rocket18]

Wonder if our horrendous game today is enough to get Janus back to BF.

Hasn't posted for two weeks (since losing to Bullflogs and Richmond) really miss the heatmaps/theories.

Always worth a chuckle, I could do with a laugh right about now.

 

[rocket18]

Also thinking about putting some money on Port to knock off gws to make our day even worst.

Surprised they are favorites.
1.85 Sportsbet
1.90 TAB
1.87 bet365
Would've thought gws would start favorite.

 

[Anzacpaul]

Cmon port.

We've got so many ex crows in the upper echelon, port being above us on the ladder might be the only thing that forces change.
