Autopsy AFL 2025 First Qualifying Final - Crows v Pies Thursday Sept 4th 7:40pm AEST/7:10pm CST (AO)

Which is relevant to this game how.....?

Oh that's right - it's TOTALLY ****ing IRRELEVANT!

Good posting.

Where did I say it was relevant to this game?

Don't get yourself so worked up about it.

 

[Go the Guts]

Crows by 40plus, game wont be the slug fest it was previously. The big Texan to kick 6!

Yep, last time a few weeks ago, Collingwood had 3 extra days lead-up, having played on Thursday night, so a 9 day break.

We had played on the Sunday night in PERTH. Home Monday morning. We were a lot less rested with a 6 day break.

We were also missing Max Michallaney and Rory Laird, who will possibly both play some periods on the ball or Michallaney as a defensive forward on Josh Daicos.

Confident we'll run them ragged this time on our home fortress.

AND…… it’s our club’s GREATEST EVER GOALKICKER - TEX’s - 300th GAME!

We’re not losing this!

 

[Port 2004]

I think Crows might go out in straight sets? Pies by 17 points this time. The events of the past couple of weeks appear to have rattled their cage

Yep. Pies to beat the whinging Crom by 20 points.

Haven't you got a 'sack Hinkley' or 'Butters traded' thread to stink up on your own board?! Go away with your stink.

 

[Rank]

Hopefully we get another 'right in front of me' moment that we can talk about for the next 15 years

The 'right in front of me"should have been put to rest after the events of two weeks ago. It pales in comparison to the Collingwood act.

Or the Wanganeen-Milera coming to Port thread.

Yep, I can see us giving them a good smacking if we get on top early.
Their fans will be supporting GWS Saturday.

Last time Adelaide beat Collingwood big 40+ was 20 years ago in 2005. A very rare occurence.

I'd guess it will be close as per recent history.

Even Melbourne broke them open late last Friday, and it was only due to their incompetence/an inability to put them to the sword that cost them the game.

I'll be surprised if the Crows allow anywhere near 71 inside 50s again. Keep that stat even I don't even think it'll be close. If they haven't learnt maybe they deserve to lose though.

 

[Gtowncrow]

You'd think so, but Collingwood can strangle you, and they did it to the Crows last time. I get the feeling if the Crows break their rigid structure, it will crumble like a gingerbread house: rigid but weak and fragile, which is something I've thought of for awhile, and the dam wall will break. In that case they'll win big, 40+.

If Collingwood somehow win it won't be by much.

Crows accumulated points of our 2025 losses totals only 51 points.

Collingwood offence won't kick a score again and if conditions are good, (which has been a rarity for crows games this year) I'm confident the Crows win this comfortably.

 

[Chronz]

Never seen the crows supporters so rabid before, would love to see what happens if we win this one. Pies by 9.

I'm going for the Crows too. It is a shame people like you would stand to benefit.

Right in front of me?

They do have some justification. Your players gave it to Rankine all night then ran and sooked the moment he said one word and now he misses 5 games. The crow fans have reason to be rabid.

Perhaps he should have said another word like "nerd" instead of the bad one and he'd still be playing!

Your posting about this is seriously pathetic

Imagine complaining about that instead of blaming THE PLAYER WHO USED THE SLUR

 

[davos44]

Yep. Pies to beat the whinging Crom by 20 points.

Can I just say thank you for the past 5 years.

The 2020 top of the table finish and kicking 6 goals in a prelim
The 2021 prelim choke against the dish lickers travelling from Launceston, Brisbane then Adelaide (my favourite).
The straight sets roll over in 2023
The 14 goal rag-dolling by Geelong followed by childish antics the week after

It's been a ride, I have enjoyed it immensely, back to the bottom for you my friend.

Great, now we're gonna lose

 

[Alwaysacrow]

Collingwood by a goal or 2 or Crow's by 40+.

The only acting was from Rankine and he was fined for it.
He needs to get that out of his game, I doubt we will see him do it this game

 

[57 Milner]

Daicos is a superior actor. Hence, his flopping is celebrated rather than sanctioned.

 

[cactuscall]

^ever since someone posted that in the lookalike thread all I see when i look at Nick Daicos is Steve Carell.

 

[demondavey]

Collingwood by 13. Adelaide raw on finals experience and Collingwood have the finals ready players. Crows will bounce back in the SF you’d think but won’t be winning this one.

 

[demondavey]

I can't believe everyone has jumped back on the Pies' bandwagon, they are bloody terrible and will get pumped at AO by ten goals.
Seriously, if they couldn't beat the Crows there with 71 inside 50s a few weeks back they never will

Waiting for the egg to hit your face!

 

[Tista7000]

Crows by 22

Win Win scenario for Adelaide though, they win and go through to a prelim. They lose and Rankine will be available for the Gf if they go through.

 

[ice444]

Crows by 1-2 goals but could go either way.

 

[timokane]

Pies by 19 points
