Game Day Crows vs Eagles - A game of wind and wind

[Mr_Moogle]

That choking in front of goal too. Players failing because they're scared of failing.

 

[crowker]

Todays useless stat.. we are equal 2nd for winning the 1st qtr (70%) and 1st for the 2nd qtr ( 90%) .. we drop to 8th (50%) in the 3rd qtr (after Nicks & Co tell the lads where they need to improve), then back up to equal 2nd for the last ( 80%).

 

[footy4ever]

Eagles playing with absolutely nothing to lose. The run and gun is killing us and yet somehow we're ahead.

Crows thought turning up and playing like hollywoods would get the job done with percentage to burn. No respect for the oppo. Too cute. Too clever. Too complacent. Not enough meat and potatoes solid work.

Expect we win but what a shitshow.

 

[Shuestar13]

Your team has got some great players. I expected you to come out firing and you have. Second half could go either way imo considering the way we are playing!

I’m pleasantly surprised tbh, I thought we would have a let down after last week, but the effort has been great. All we can ask for

Umpiring abysmal as normal. Commentary is… not good

One of those days you grind through, get the win and move on!

 

[Jcpdragonx]

If it wasn’t for Dawson and Thilt clunking everything we’d be bottom 6

 

[BRL121]

You can see the panic with the loser gameplan of bombing it long to a contest. We are doing this against the bottom side at home ffs. It is so deeply pathetic.

What? The game plan seems to be short sideways kicks very badly executed and converted to turnovers.

 

[GreyCrow]

Anyone who thinks this team is ready to function without Tec is kidding themselves

 

[Mutineer]

In what way?

15 disposals 10 kicks, 5 handballs equal highest on the ground, 80% disposal efficiency, 3 clearances 5 tackles 300 metres gained highest by a Crow, 3 score involvements in only 67% time on ground. Pretty fair going.

 

[Mattrox]

Looks like we are playing in 2nd gear, only shifting into 3rd a couple of times.

Looked like we tried some different CBS combos.

Need to lift and finish it out strong without the brain fade moments.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

What? The game plan seems to be short sideways kicks very badly executed and converted to turnovers.

Yep. If anything we're too cute.

 

[AFC979810]

We are a much worse side with Berry in the midfield. May as well put Laird or Keays back in the middle.

He is an honest trier.

Need to keep the midfield group exclusively to Dawson, Soligo, Rankine, Peatling, Rachele and Draper.

 

[Crowstar]

Downhillskiers FC.

Absolutely rubbish first half.

 

[Smart Fella]

You’re telling me you haven’t enjoyed Rory Laird’s epic seagulling stat-padding football clinic exhibition that is unfolding before our very eyes? Can’t please everybody I guess.

Settle down mate, it actually takes great skill to get fifteen touches to half time without a score involvement.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

The only nice thing I'll say about Berry is his kicking doesn't stand out because the entire side are turnover merchants today.

[GreyCrow]

I think we are going ok - I just want more intensity

We can see we are better than WC and yet we are keeping them in the game

2 more goals extra and this game is done

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

We did it last year, we’re capable

The fact that game wasn't the end of Nicks shows how willing the corporation accepts mediocrity.

 

[AFC979810]

15 disposals 10 kicks, 5 handballs equal highest on the ground, 80% disposal efficiency, 3 clearances 5 tackles 300 metres gained highest by a Crow, 3 score involvements in only 67% time on ground. Pretty fair going.

Wrong.

I wonder what the common denominator is...

When the sideways kick connects we bomb it long.

 

[Firewalker]

Settle down mate, it actually takes great skill to get fifteen touches to half time without a score involvement.

The gaining of 65 metres from those 15 touches is the even more elite stat #LairdsEpicGame

 

[CharlieCrow]

Bring on Sid.

 

[nummy217]

Mild concern, but at this stage, you are in no real danger of losing this.
Will be fourth this evening
Tests in the next few weeks. Will need a lot more than this to pass them.

Always have respect for you Shuestar! Won't be long and you guys will be back in the hunt.

 

[Moonwatcher]

I wonder what the common denominator is...

umpires (yes, the Crows)

 

[arsene wenger1]

Michalanney said the same Wednesday morning. It's obviously what Nicks talks about.
No wonder the team plays with zero confidence.

It's actually horrifying.

If they truly believed it they’d play with a bit more intensity. I think the problem is the opposite.
