Matt Wright in the paper today on Curtin
“He is still learning his craft and whether he gets an opportunity (AFL selection) in the coming weeks or later in the year we will wait and see”

Don’t get your hopes up

Yet somehow Ned and Chayce have mastered their craft? Give me a spell, AFC. You’re absolutely cooked.

Where do you think Ned learnt how to be a non statistical player?

Wright made that position.

Hate to say it guys but the changes will be

Out Pedlar Inj Hamill

In Murphy, Smith


A lot of leadership coming in, senior heads can never be a bad thing in a big game.

On a side note, thought Ross the Boss interview last night was interesting, trying g to find the right balance between flooding new players and getting the win, he thinks he is almost there too

Yep, that'll be it.

McHenry will stay the sub.

He really said that after saying Murphy played really well?

The decision was made last week.

Murphy in after one game (no matter how bad), Curtin may get a chance once finals are no longer mathmatically possible.

Has everyone just forgotten that Shoey doesn’t have it and won’t ever have it?

Absence makes the heart grow fonder I suppose.

Tend to agree. Poor disposal

 

[Burtonsgottago]

It really says something about how poor Burgess and Gollant have been that Himmelberg came in and performed better than both of them despite somehow managing to get smothered 5m out from goal... twice!

Slow down. Might have something to do with the opposition

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Quote from Wright on Murphy:

I think he's coming in. Hopefully it's for McHenry.

On Curtin, I think he is almost certain to come in if Smith is not fit. I think if Smith is fit it's more touch and go because they'd have to omit Hamill. Justified, but not clear if they will do it alongside other forced changes.

Smith should come back via the sanfl given his form was awful prior.

Also, we should revert him to a wing, where he played his best football last season.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

We are not serious while either Murphy or McHenry are in the team.

Really?… good fxckn god…

Matty wright needs to line up at the wall in front of the firing squad next to roo, kelly, vb and nicksy if thats really what he said..

This club is fxxkn pathetic.

I am now actually hoping like hell Curtin and his manager demand a trade to west coast at years end.. it is yet another necessary nail in the coffin these ********s need to be buried in.

 

[George Kramer]

Yep, that'll be it.

McHenry will stay the sub.

Maybe Butts for Borlase given Ports key forwards

They see him as a tall defender, he ain’t play midfield or half back unless there’s a suitable match up.

He’s going to be a gun player but he’s a bad match for us

 

[crows dude]

Maybe Butts for Borlase given Ports key forwards

Yeh Butts on Dixon
Keane on Marshall
Worrell on Georgiades

Wright might be worse than Godden, I didn’t think that was possible

 

[1970crow]

Hamill and Pedlar out, Curtin and Berry in. McHenry can stay as sub.

You can maybe flip Butts and Borlase too, I'm easy.

Aren't you on record saying, 'you don't change a winning team'

 

[Bearded Clam]

Imagine being Curtin’s dad…

seeing your son play a game like that yesterday..

You’ve probably watched every crows game this year in order to take an interest in the who’s who, the form and happenings of the club your son plays for..

You’ve probably watched hacks like murphy, scholl, smith and mchenry get afl games this year and wondered… whats this clubs weird obsession with these blokes?..

Then you watch them get selected week after week..

You notice other clubs, even s**t sides like West Coast and North, giving games to their 2023 first round draft picks..

If I’m him.. I’m thinking “is this really the best place for my lad to have his talents and career developed?” and you’d surely be thinking “my son deserves more than this”..

I’d be on the phone to my son and his manager nutting out an exit strategy.. sure, your not implementing it yet.. but having one ready, just in case..

While you are at it, Rachele should request a trade to Collingwood, Soligo should request a trade to Geelong, Rankine should request a trade back to GCS and MM should request a trade to Port Power.

 

[1970crow]

Just one ******* debutant at least, please!!!!!!!!

Debuting Curtin after thst game would be the easy decision, Nicks is a deeper thinker than that.

 

[George Kramer]

Wright might be worse than Godden, I didn’t think that was possible

They are all preaching the Nicks way, he’s a cult leader.

If Curtin doesn't play this week even the FB happy clappers will turn on the club.

I can understand Wright not speculating on Curtin being selected in the AFL team as that's not really his role, but you'd think he could muster more praise than just saying he's learning his craft. Was clearly a breakout game.

Clearly the directive is to talk down the performances of the SANFL players to deflect from the coaches copping selection scrutiny

I think you under estimate the HC crew
