Did Matty Allen play? Another who was unlucky not to get more (or any) opportunities in our midfield.
Partington is a strange player. He has a lot of non damaging touches but also regularly kicks multiple goals.
I think he clearly should be on a list somewhere, and probably playing right now.

You can be non damaging with your disposals but be fit enough to push forward and link up to kick some snags. I suspect he has a ping more often than not whereas other mids might look to pass off to the forwards more. Still, doubt we’ll see our current midfield depth get 35 and 3 at WAFL level on many occasions

Can we add all their possessions and goals together?
I was at an East Perth game not long before his debut, he kicked 4 in a well beaten team. Most of them were from stoppages or from congestion but it was hard to say whether it was good play or hungry play, it wasn't overly selfish from memory.

Wasn’t there a question about his willingness to run the other way? I’m sure I recall a discussion about why he was being marked down for that when certain other senior midfielders, one I particular, was allowed to get away with it.
Yeah I guess that’s why they trialled him in the forwardline. Must be a reason why AFL coaches don’t dig him because he still went undrafted after winning the MM
Allen 19 disposals 5 marks and 1 goal.
Allen in theory had all the tools, but couldn't consistently have a noticeable impact on games imo.

Once footage emerged of Parto doing the shittest clothesline ever, I lost all interest. It’s one of the most basic spots in all of professional wrestling, either learn the fundamentals or don’t debut until you’re ready.
Well, be keen to watch whoever (newbie) comes in to replace Shuey- it's a rare treat to see a new midfielder in the kitchen!
...and Cameron for some electricity!
Noticed Ryan looks a bit beefier, a good thing.

What on Earth is going on at Adelaide?
Adelaide Crows ruckman Reilly O’Brien posts bizarre tweet about Nic Naitanui
West Coast ruckman Nic Naitanui is ‘lazy and unfit’, according to a tweet posted from the social media account of the man he will go head-to-head with this week.
West Coast star ruckman Nic Naitanui is “lazy and unfit”, his Adelaide Crows counterpart Reilly O’Brien has posted on social media.
In what looks to be an unintended public posting O’Brien has derailed the plan to stop the Eagles star when the Crows play them on Saturday.
In the now deleted tweet, O’Brien posted some of the ways the Crows may try and stop Naitanui.
“Run off him hard, he is lazy and unfit,” O’Brien’s Tweet said.
“Will have a field day getting ball and marking everything.
Get to front and have grunt around the ground, and get ball on deck, beat him in this area.”
O’Brien is now the Crows No. 1 ruckman after the departure of Sam Jacobs to GWS in the off-season.
The Crows have been contacted about the Tweet.

Im on the Brayshaw and Cameron as ins.
This is the perfect game to debut Brayshaw and have a look. We've lost an inside mid and look at the mids of Adelaide....B Crouch, M Crouch and Slone. One of the bigger, slower midfields we come up against. So sure Brayshaw isnt quick but he sure is willing to crack in.
Cameron to totally demoralise the Crows as they are reminded what they let go.

He’s like a Goldstein who hasn’t quite worked out how to hitout to advantage yet. Gets a lot of marks around the ground
scratch that, he doesn’t really. How’s he get such high SC scores then

How does a man in his 20s manage to do that? That’s something your grandfather does when he thinks he’s googling.

Nic Nat, with the hit out, against the ruckman who didn’t rate him!
