Question: Last year we had really good threads on the upcoming games. There was some good,informed analysis of the two teams and possible outcomes of games. We also had a guest from the opposing club lay out their thoughts for us. It caused a lot of good debate.
I tried my hand at one for the match against the Saints,but I'm not well-informed enough to tackle this task against Freo. I don't know enough about them to take it on.
Anyone want to have a crack?

Crows by 22 points.
 
I don't know what to think about this game.
I think it depends on where the players heads are at and how much the Bock situation has affected them since it could work to our favour, or Freo's.
Hopefully it fires them up to get the bad press away from them and they win.

Crows by 44 points :p. We gotta have the number 44 somewhere! :thumbsu:

I know a bit about them.

1. They wear purple. And the No. 1 rule of AFL footy tipping is never tip a purple team.

2. They dropped Duffield, who has been their only good player in the first two matches. This shows that their selection committee is as dumb as their coach.

3. Clive Waterhouse used to play for them.

4. Now that James Clement has retired, their best player is Paul Medhurst.

That's all sorry.

5. They have a unique drafting/playing strategy, which has them actively trying to get worse every year. They have been successful at this for a while now.

6. They didn't really rate Andrew McLeod.

7. A supporter of theirs released a shockwave flash video a few years ago, which bemoaned their terrible, terrible history. It's hilarious (if you're not a supporter). It was called, "The Shame Of The Fremantle Dockers". PM if you'd like a copy.
 
The Faceoff threads will return soon, never fear :thumbsu:

But when, I miss them threads.

I seriously think if we lose then we are in a pile of dirt, I know its only round 3 but it just seems like a game you gotta win, especially against Fremantle who got beaten pretty well by Essendon.

So us by about 30 points.

Hopefully either this week or next week.
 
I expect to see a more spirited Fremantle effort however the combination of our discipline and pressure with Freo's poor decision making and skill level should provide us with more than enough opportunities to win the game

Crows by 27pts :thumbsu:
 
Will depend on final team selection. If Stevens and Rutten are out as well as Bock we have no hope. Maybe Sellar can come in and smash big Pav? :rolleyes:

Over on the Freo board a lot of posters are tipping us. Seem to think our discipline in particular will be too much for them.
I feel sorry for their supporters. Can't be easy following that unpredictable rabble week in week out.
 
I'm surprised that any of them still want to be associated as fans of the rabble, er, I mean club.
 
It's not like you guys have the most dominant record over us, you should feel very ashamed indeed if you lose to us this Sunday then.

It's not really the discipline of you guys we are conerned about, it's our shithouse skills in general.

We'll win if we cut down our use of the handballs and play a hard game through the middle of the ground. We'll lose if we play bad, simple as that.

I think Geelong in Round 4 will be too good for us. We've gotta win this weekend.

But I have a bad feeling that we will wear those red uniforms.
 
I just think back to the West Coast game last year. We were flying, West Coast had already started tanking for Naitanui, and we got belted by 10 goals in an embarrassing effort.

Any ideas on which guernsey we're wearing?

Exactly!!
With Fremantle having beaten us 3 times out of the las 5, we shouldn't be too confident of winning this one.
I still hope we will win by >11 points.

Today they trained in the one we wore against Collingwood.
 
I dont tip the crows at Subiaco regardless of who we are playing.
yeah its a big home ground advantage, i think it might be a bit closer then what most supporters think on this board. Hope they are right though, would like to see us win by a bit for for once. 50+ point game would very nice:D
