Game Day Adelaide Crows versus the GWS GIANTS

[xchadders]

We are going to get smashed tonight. Bookmark it. They are ridiculously strong all across the park. We are playing VB and Hendo

Geelong smashed us all over the ground. Tonight will be worse.

Yep.

They're a gun side as it is - and we refuse to put our best team on the oval.

We'll get fisted.

these kind of comments give me the craps. before the game you wrote us off, didnt give us a chance, gave up.
we won. dominated really. crappy last quarter and crappy kicking, but we won.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Hollow win? Come on mate. Disappointing last quarter but we got the win against a top 4 aspirant.

We were not disappointing. We were f*cking awful. Absolutely shit. And we were bloody lucky to get over the line.

 

[Bokonon]

Kudos!
Your guys won rhe contested ball tonight and your outside run/forwards were awesome. I thought it was a good game but if I'm honest I struggle to enjoy the class you showed against my team. If we meet again it will be in September

We certainly did. Sorry for not picking us to win every week mate.

Enjoy the 4 pts

So many on here had us losing tonight

There is no perfect game in modern footy

I wasn't one of them. I gave us every chance to win and I said it during the week. Our record against them is fantastic only losing once since their inception. I thought it was 50/50 entering the game but home ground advantage helped immensely. Also winning the inside 50s, clearances, stoppages and contested possessions helps. However the 4th quarter we stopped doing what worked so well for the first 3 quarters and almost coughed up the win we had at 3 quarter time sewn up.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Its that lapse in concentration thats holding us back from being a top 4 side.

The lapse in concentration starts on Thursday when VB and Henderson get picked.

 

[JennyTalia]

Liked JL a lot tonight. Eddie is a freak!

Some people just enjoy being miserable. I wouldn't pay it any attention.

It was a nice win. The team did what it needed to do. Plenty us will enjoy it and smile.

 

[Huntercrow]

I love our team!!

 

[Moonwatcher]

In the 2001 match against Richmond where we scored 9 goals 0 in the third quarter we only went on to kick 3.6 more in the last and just 1.4 for us tonight in the last.

 

[xchadders]

We certainly did. Sorry for not picking us to win every week mate.

its not whether you pick us or not, its the whole 'woe is adelaide, we can't win, i can't see it, we have no hope, we suck, we play crap players'. some of its true, but damn, we were written off before the game.

 

[AmericanCrow]

Mate! we kicked some serious butt. they are quality.

I know this. Tell it to the perpetual debbie downers.

 

[Abstract]

Atkins with the gun symbol on fanfooty. Nice.

 

[Iron]

We were not disappointing. We were f*cking awful. Absolutely shit. And we were bloody lucky to get over the line.

You're being ridiculous. Throwing tantrums after a hard win. Ugly look.

 

[GreyCrow]

Ahh feels great

Go Crows

And we beat a "Contender" (ADRIANNNN!!!)

I was wrong tonight.

Some people would rather be "right" then have the team win.

Sad lot

 

[feenix67]

WTF with people bleating about the last quarter. We just beat the fastest team in the comp with some of the best 2 way running and stoppage work I've seen from our side in a long time. We tired badly in the last, but who wouldn't take a 4 goal win?

Third quarter electric, won us the game, despite our bad early kicking. Get a grip you people.

Nathan Van Berlo: 6 touches

He will get a game again next week because apparently you don't change a winning lineup

Some people want higher standards from their football team than you get from the Cleveland Browns.

 

[Tex200]

Super super performance.

Anyone complaining about that win has to be kidding.

Nathan Van Berlo: 6 touches

IIRC only one or two of those were effective ......game too quick for him .....he was suited to the slow chip around played in the AFL during the Craig era

 

[SmegHead]

Douglas and Lynch should have iced it. Douglas especially should be very very relieved.

Almost could have been 3 for 3 goal stuff ups to lose the game.
