Game Day Adelaide v Sydney - Backing Them In Match Thread

[jackster83]

I made it there in time. Found a pub selling Coopers just down the road from the ground.

I'm not allowed to yell at the TV because it frightens the dogs.
I'm condemned to an evening of sitting with the headphones on, every muscle tense, emitting the occasional squeak, or whispered "WTF?" "who was that to?" and "EEEEDDDIEEE!".

Ample grounds for divorce right there.

Having a few sneaky pints in Sydney before heading to the game, can’t wait! First time at the redeveloped SCG. Cmon boys!

 

[BACCS]

Looks like there’s a few from BF at the game tonight!

[MRB37]

No late changes.

 

[hey shorty]

So Gibbs doesn't have an excuse ??

Another bad performance from the lads and pressure will come. Greenwood and Gallucci nearly ready, Stengle, Davis and Poholke showing great early season form and Ned hopefully building.

If tonight isn't the night against an equally listless Sydney then we are in trouble.

 

[Thylacinus]

Crows by 7

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

No late changes.

You mean we all listened to 5aa for nothing?!

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

You mean we all listened to 5aa for nothing?!

Think we all know by now they like to create fake news... given they struggle with actual news.

Jesus Joey Montagna has enjoyed retirement...

They're not those little fluffy white things are they ?

Yep no excuses. Two shockers in a row and we're done.

Just said the exact same thing myself. Is looking rather round isn't he.

Great news
We need on the ground commentary

Sydney are in a similar boat, gonna be a huge game.

 

[Anzacpaul]

Eternal pessimist here.

Think it'll be a good game but we'll go down by less than 10 points

 

[Doc_]

Not confident at all.

 

[CrowinNT]

Got my Darwinites big out door TV fired up
You all know the set up
I am apprehensive
I posted a few times in the game thread that we would come back v Hawks

It did not happen

I think I WANT us to win this

 

[Iron]

One of those rare nights where literally nothing would surprise me.

Difference between 1-1 and 0-2 is huge when you look at the first round results. Huge!

 

[mattymac]

Come on lads. National stage. A ground that suits us. Circle the wagons and show some pride.

We don't come back from 0-2 so this is really backs to the wall already.

I wanna see a tackle in forward 50. I wanna see eyes lowered. I wanna see forwards working as a unit to create space. And a hint of composure from our mids.

Above all a bit of heart. Show us that it means something.

 

[mattymac]

Betts gets a lot of unfair flack for flying at the ball when it's kicked directly to him, often 3-on-1, with no tall forwards in sight. It's not his fault he is dealt a shit sandwich! At least he's trying to get something to happen

Sometimes true. Other times he goes 4th man up when he should be at the fall

 

[Pea Nut]

I want to see Murphy show something tonight. To me he too often looks like a guy who has won a competition to play a game of AFL football. Like he doesn't belong. Don't know if the game is too quick for him or if he has too much to think about. Time to deliver, you might not get many more chances.

 

[ams4crows]

I just want our forwards to play in front and hold that position when the ball comes in.
