Game Day Collingwood vs Adelaide Game Day Thread

[GrommoT]

I hope none of our fans left with 5 minutes to go

 

[Southerntakeover]

At the same time we needn't have done that.

I agree.

The positive is we've managed to turn the momentum in a major way. That's what we couldnt do against Melbourne earlier this year. Hopefully it's a sign that the team's grown and matured.

If they could just stop thinking they can rock up and have an easy win we'd all be a lot better off.

 

[Runnin Blue]

I was screaming at the TV all second half. Neighbours must think I'm a nutter.

I gotta admit, I spiked the couch cushions when Gov took that mark. Jumped about twenty times too.

 

[dani_giuls]

Didn't watch, didnt want to jinx it after I turned on quickly and we'd gone from 3 to 21 points down. Will watch a replay of the second half now.

You can thank me all for the draw.

Happy to eat my hat on my first half thoughts.

Still sitting here gobsmacked. Tex was immense in that last five minutes. The way he spotted up Otten and then the way he used his body in the air to give McGovern a clear passage at the ball were match winners.

 

[GameofSloanes]

Pleased with that. Cats most likely team to go above us and we stay same margin effectively in front of them. Gws struggling to make to 4 Richmond are Richmond. Port could get up there but if they go above us we don't deserve to be there anyway
A good scare to focus us for next week

 

[sgPanther]

You are all welcome--I woke up right before half when were down a million.

Seems the boys decided to wake up themselves.

Great second half--to bad they apparently played first half like the game started at 1:20 am

Good first half to miss. It was rage inducing. Lack of effort and spirit, making Collingwood look like superstars.

 

[Discarnate]

I hope none of our fans left with 5 minutes to go

Will admit to turning off the TV at half time

(perfectly valid response though - glad we showed something we never have before in the last)

 

[Bay62]

At 1/2 time I'd have taken the draw.. so I'll take the draw.

Still not happy though.

Don't want to hear Pyke say he is anything other than unhappy either

 

[adelaidecrows]

Does anyone think we'll learn anything from that.
I doubt it

I think we fell back into old habits where we just tried to play fast footy but didn't react to Collingwood swamping the contest. We should have slowed play up in the 2nd quarter and looked for players leading up instead of bombing it long to contests. We did it well in the last 4 weeks but this week we were poor. Hopefully we realise what we did wrong and counter that come showdown.

Least you didn't have cops called for screaming at tv at 4 am

 

[The Karma Bus]

O

Other way around, instead of 6 points ahead we're 4 plus %

Ah yeah and I forgot GWS had a 2nd draw so they're back to the normal number of points if you hadn't had a draw at all.

 

[John Who]

Worst half ever! Best draw ever!
I'm half happy and half angry. I'm feeling hapgry..

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Missed the whole game. Anything interesting happen? Who won?

 

[AmericanCrow]

Good first half to miss. It was rage enducing. Lack of effort and spirit, making Collingwood look like superstars.

Seems it was indeed wise to catch an extra hour of nap time.

Second half was plenty enough for the ol' blood pressure

 

[Murray2503]

Milera and Seedsman not up to it. Keath and Sauce poor. Sign Gov up now! I mean tonight

 

[SloaneysDanger]

No but you'll call our players soft and whatever else. I know which is worse.

Um I called JJ soft? Because he was being soft? Point being? Did you watch his first half? Credit to him he was much better in the second half but he played horrible in the first.

 

[Tyls83]

So many games decided in the last 30 seconds this year. If we hadn't got the draw the melts on here would be nuclear

 

[mistylake]

GIVE GOV ALL THE MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell yeah, Lever did Jack s**t today.

 

[AmericanCrow]

I hope none of our fans left with 5 minutes to go

Hell, half that other team's fans have left next weeks game early.

 

[GrommoT]

Having a ciggie, feel worn out...I know this feeling.

 

[hey shorty]

Missed the whole game. Anything interesting happen? Who won?

Nobody, boring as.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Got out of jail however hopefully the club treats this as a loss

Absolutely smashed in contested ball

Got killed in pretty much every stat, it is a miracle that we pinched a draw.

 

[flashcrow]

Joy but not quite post coital glow.

True! but I for one am just as worn out after watching that!!!
