Game Day Crows vs Demons, Rnd 17, Sunday July 6th, 2:45pm

[WetCrow1991]

What more can be said about this bush league club.

 

[Scorpus]

So they should, its pathetic.

Dont hate the player, hate the game

None of the comments are attacking Murphy as a person

 

[Alwaysacrow]

Jones 28 disposals
Dowling 25 disposals 2 goals
Pedlar 24 disposals 1 goal
and we're still persisting with spud Murphy. Unbelievable.

 

[Scorpus]

If Murphy is picked for a final, we will have a record melting thread.

How many melts were there when we dropped Lever for Mackay in a final?

Surely this will top that

 

[WetCrow1991]

This is about as far from like for like as you can get, save for bringing him in for O'Brien or Thilthorpe.

 

[The Karma Bus]

None of the comments are attacking Murphy as a person

If we're at a point that you can't say how can someone make a team because they're not very good, wow.

 

[Cromulant]

*coach

Yeah that's fair, after all it they who make the decision

 

[Bay62]

Where’s Rowie on AA??

 

[Cromulant]

If we're at a point that you can't say how can someone make a team because they're not very good, wow.

How about "thats a piss poor selection decision"

 

[WetCrow1991]

If we're at a point that you can't say how can someone make a team because they're not very good, wow.

Fans, supporters, former and current AFL players and coaches all wonder how he is still getting games.

 

[Cromulant]

Where’s Rowie on AA??

Sulking with Jimmy in the Eagles rooms

 

[Crowbling]

Rachele will be subbed out after 5 minutes. Pulled up a bit sore 2 weeks ago at training.

 

[thebirdman 24]

Nicks can’t even drop Murphy properly.

 

[ams4crows]

I think most of us don't have any issues with Murphy as a person and no one is angry at Murphy but people are extremely pissed that the selection committee continues to pick a player based on the fact he's a good guy and a great teammate and don't factor in that there are other players on the list that have more AFL quality skills and could contribute to the team in better ways.

Its not so much their contribution - its building their resume in favour of someone who would match them in stats

 

[PCORF]

and we're still persisting with spud Murphy. Unbelievable.

Incredible isn't it?

If we lose then the coach may get a good wakeup call.

I am sure he is a good bloke, he would have to be because he has 118 AFL games and he is an SANFL player at best.

 

[PCORF]

Too important for him!

Come the end of the season when the pressure is really on big time, will #4 be holding the club back?

 

[jamesclean]

dogs105 threads are up xo

 

[Alwaysacrow]

C'mon Crow's get the job done for Phil.

it is like Smith. Cannot tell me he is offering anything that Edwards couldn't provide.

 

[The Karma Bus]

Ah good old Bassett.
We were watching him walk on the ground to go to a gate that leads up the stairs and to the coaches box.

I'm saying to those I'm with.. that's Adelaide's box he's heading to.
He gets up there, looks in like wtf, where's my Melbourne people and who are these invaders.. our guys in there are laughing, he turns and walks back down hunched over like I'm a dumbass.. laughing his ass off.

 

[PCORF]

Melbourne with a good record here vs Adelaide and were unlucky to lose here in 2021.

We cannot underestimate them.

I don’t think we need to apologise or qualify our criticisms of Murphy as a footballer because a few snowflakes are being triggered.

I couldn’t really give a rats what he does off the pitch. Everything he does on the pitch is awful which is all I care about.

Danger game feeling today…just win
