Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 6 - Crows v GWS Sat April 19th 4:15pm AEST (AO)

[Tenens Pila]

Bad enough having Ricciutto commentating on Adelaide games, but that noise he makes when there's a "near-miss" is bloody annoying.

 

[mick500]

We fight so hard to kick a goal then give up goals instantly. No such thing as an easy win for us.

 

[Chuckie357]

If you exclude games in the Bermuda Triangle of Marvel under the roof, surely this is the lowest in fine weather since the dark ages.

But it’s NOT fine weather. A lot of people in here could be afl umpires, absolutely no clue and their eyes are painted on

to the vet.

 

[MarcMaverick]

It looks rather stormy there.

 

[T2B_]

The irony that a Crows fan earlier was complaining about umpire love inside 50

 

[windyhill]

Love the big man. Absolute gentleman when I met him.

Woah. Settle down big fella.

My impression was it had only just begun raining but I understand how you must feel about the issue.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Crows defense has held up well. Giants aren't kicking an extra 4 goals to win this

Been a shocking howling wind all game. You could see that in the first quarter when GWS struggled to kick the ball down the members side wing and when the crows kicked it almost every kick carried well past a pack or contest

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Wow two free kicks to our forwards. Is this a dream? Now I know how Curnow feels

You have more belief than I do lol.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

It's blowing a gale & swirly.

Now wet ground too.

 

[joe444]

Aside from Marvel under the lid, is it far to say that Adelaide's conditions (windy, as I have unforgivably failed to mention, I mean seriously some people ...) have thrown up a few alarmingly horrific viewing experiences. Especially at West Lakes?

 

[Stax on the mill]

Throwing the ball obviously isn't on the list for umpires to watch.

Too busy calling 18 metre kicks as “not 15, play on” to worry about trivialities such as throwing the ball.

 

[ABAB]

Both there, big difference.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

GWS do have a habit of winning some of these games where they haven't looked good for three quarters but the score hasn't got out of hand

Big ask with four goals in the last. If they had have conceded one less goal they probably would've liked their chances

 

[joe444]

To busy calling 18 metre kicks as “not 15, play on” to worry about trivialities such as throwing the ball.

Forget kicking in danger, too.

And we seem to have decided players can voluntarily take a tackle to win a ball up. Just hug the thing to your chest and all is sweet. That latter one is decidedly different from anything I've seen and it annoys the cr@p out of me.

Why not just remember why the rule was invented, and pay it in line with that?

 

[mick500]

Classic crows defending.

 

[T2B_]

Any GWS fans there, was complete silence when that guy kicked the goal

 

[MarcMaverick]

Last week was a round of shootouts in the AO, this week a slog.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Soligio loves a good dip for the high free. Does it numerous times every week.

 

[windyhill]

That's not a handy point d/head.

 

[Rod Stroker]

"I'm not sure he has this kick in him. Or maybe he has".

Fox paying Roo shitloads to offer nothing opinions.

 

[Tenens Pila]

With all those tv screens at Sth Melbourne that Derwayne keeps talking about, he's pretty hopeless calling set shots that are obviously missing.
