Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 5 - Crows v Cats Thurs April 10th 7:40pm AEST (AO)

[Warhorse]

There’s idiots in every fanbase.
It’s ok mate you’ll live.

It’s a scarf, moron clearly doing it to get a rise out of people.

Having Adelaide fans sooking about someone hitting them with a scarf pretty much sums up their club and supporter base. Hilarious

Just the fans?

Bailey Smith set to get a please explain from AFL house for flipping the birds at fans heading down the race.

On recent events id suggest a disgusting club on and off the field.

He was just asking the SA local if he wanted to play Fortnite with him.

I think he's a bit frustrated losing his title of Captain Underpants to Robert Irwin.

Crows lost two in a row wheels are going to fall off?

Crows are par for the season so far. Rounds 4 to 14 were always going to be where Adelaide's chance at finals was won or lost. My prediction was for them to win 4/11 during that time which
would have them just outside finals. If they go 50/50 during that time and win the games against the lower teams by plenty whilst avoiding getting thrashed they sneak in on percentage, that's Adelaide's realistic target.

We haven't learnt anything about Adelaide over the first 5 rounds that we didn't already know. Their best is very good and capable of beating anyone but are they are prone to lapses which can cost them close games plus they rely on too few. The inclusions from last year have improved their list and they are a better side for it but 2025 isn't and was never going to be a year where Adelaide go deep into finals. They are the side that just makes it or just misses out that nobody wants to play against because their best is capable of beating anyone but they aren't a legitimate threat of winning the flag because they can't string it together for long enough periods.

You mean last year’s Rising Star winner Ollie Dempsey?
The Rookie Drafted kid who is an excitement machine?

Levi and COS play different positions, Levi plays a role that feeds him the ball.
COS plays a much harder role which requires a more defensive mindset so he doesn’t get to rack up cheap disposals that aren’t damaging.

Both have had great starts to the year, will be a hotly contested one.
Probably about 5 or 6 guys who could win it.

Rising Star means little, Watson is clearly better than Dempsey.

right now? most teams would take Dempsey but Watson has a higher ceiling in a more difficult position to find a graders.

Why, because he's two years older?

Hasn't received coaches votes this year Ollie, while Wiz was BOG in a game against the second or third best side this year.

Ollie is ranked lower in

• Player ratings
• Champion Data
• Disposal efficiency
• Kick efficiency
• Inside 50s
• Meters gained per disposal
• Clangers
• Turnovers
• Goals average
• Shots
• Goal assists
• Score launches
• Tackles inside 50
• Spoils
• 1%ers

Ollie is ranked higher in

• Disposals
• R50
• Contested possessions
• Hard ball gets
• Loose ball gets
• Crumbs
• Contested marks
• Clearances
• Intercepts

They're both ranked the same for Score Involvements.

They both have hurt factor but Wiz two years younger, already has more hurt factor, and more dynamic play. Ollie is bigger and stronger, has played more in the contest but that may change with Will Day out for the season.

The envious are out in force, it was a great game and whoever gets the Adelaide home game in "Gather Round" is going to be playing in front of a finals like atmosphere. Geelong responded and their newbies are looking good with a couple more to make an appearance over the next few weeks. Crows will do just fine this year, they will make the 8.

 

[Crow till I die]

If I had the game he did last night, I'd be telling the opposition fans I was number 1 on the ground too (and he did it with both hands) just in case they forgot.

 

[Cam Payne]

Imagine Bailey Smith and Harley Reid joining forces next year and flipping off every opposition supporter, every game. It'll be like a boy band gone bad.

Yikes. What a meltdown. Shouldn't you be enjoying your umpire-assisted win instead of desperately seeking validation from me?

Thanks for Max Holmes

wingman Ollie Dempsey is ranked lower than a forward in a bunch of the forward-centric stats? Jeez must be a real spud

Oh no! The rising star. Maybe Ollie will be as good as Rhys Palmer!

Oh so now you don't care about it but 3 posts ago you were in your feelings because Nick Watson averages more goals per game than a wingman? lmao pick a lane brother

 

[TheEscapeClub]

thats my boy

I remember The Crows recruited Kym Koster? from Footscray. He had his car parked at Moron Park and it still had Vic plates on it. When he came out it had been vandalised, hahaha.

I also remember the good old days when female Crows fans wouldn't letting visiting female supporters use the toilets.

I just don't rate the rising star award, similar to the brownlow. My post before outlined why.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Why do Richmond and Brisbane fans human centipede when it's about Geelong? Odd behaviour.

Looks like Axl Rose and Nick Carter had a kid
