Preview 2021 Internal Trial: Crow v Crow, 20/2/21 10.30am ACDT

[Firewalker]

Odds on teams will be all changed at halftime & ruin any feel the game had to that point to emphasise this is just training drill exercises and the 2nd half will be shortened to under 30 minutes so they can finish before 12:00 PM

 

[hey shorty]

Given the relative youth of our key defence and the size of our tall forwards, it might be a high scoring affair.

 

[Santoz]

Your club website, like many others, down?

Nope

 

[Santoz]

Nope

Must just be me.

I just got into your site, but still getting a few Forbidden 403's on a few links internally.

 

[Thylacinus]

Yay, footy is back. The blood is starting to pump! Wish there was a d) in the poll, namely 'all of the above'! May the best club win!

Yup. It's a trial game. It's really just a "hope the kids don't look horrifically unco" affair.

 

[Truck25]

I hope they put the video up to view later because I'll be travelling to Murray Bridge for a 7yr old birthday party...YAY!

Sounds like a 75% best 22 side vs the younger players

you called it

The magnets are likely to shift on the whiteboard and players switch teams throughout the game as Adelaide’s coaches look towards Round One in four weeks' time.

 

[maxlilly]

Why not try and even up the midfield clash, that looks like U19's vs men

 

[Scorpus]

"If Thilthorpe performs well in the practice games he will play round 1"

*Puts him in the team with the far weaker midfield*

Maybe the club wants to see how they go against men...

 

[1970crow]

Oh I dunno, if you listen to the mob down the road it was the perfect idea.

FWIW I'm not sure we'll have a huge list of probables, but I'd like to see RT and Rowe play alongside one and other

We did it last year. Confirmed we were on track, such was the drubbing.

Everyone knows what happens when you play boys against men, you don't learn anything

 

[hey shorty]

I still think he'll play R1

jesus, the party’s been going for seven years?!? Wow that’s a good effort!!!

 

[AFC3000]

Appreciate the video but do miss the days they'd just stream it on Youtube. Hopefully the website is ok this year but right now the highest resolution is 576p so not much hope it will be amazing.

Rule a line through everyone else.

 

[Crow-eater]

McHenry opens the scoring for Red with a behind.

Red 0.1.1
Blue 0.0.0

 

[MRB37]

Jones found a lot of it in the opening minutes.

 

[Crow-eater]

Sloane snaps a goal for blue from the ball-up

Red 0.1.1
Blue 1.0.6

 

[RePete]

Stream could be better quality. Hard to tell who is who sometimes.

 

[Crow-eater]

Milera hits the post with a dribble kick. Don't tell Jason Dunstall.

Red 0.1.1
Blue 1.1.7
