Preview Face Off: Adelaide V North Melbourne Round 4

[ams4crows]

do you think in time he will be a HBF who gets say 20 touches he’s a game?

Yeah eventually, but we've got Smith, Seedsman and his draft partner in Crime Sholl who at this stage are getting in the position to get those handball receives out of defence.

I'm not sure Hamill will ever be 'fantasy relevant'

I don’t know, before he cut his hair I’m sure he was in some fantasies.

He was very good in 'Star Wars'

Super danger game... they will come out hard

That would be really awkward. The shinboner spirit.

 

[Bay62]

Off thread but anyway..

I’ve received two complete lots of tickets and member merchandise - has anyone else had that?

 

[CrowBloke]

On form, my head says Crows by 8+ goals.
My heart says Crows by 15+ goals, with Tex kicking 10, another 10 Coaches' votes, another 3 Brownlow votes ...
BUT
--- it's away, and that will unsettle the kids
--- NM will be desperate to show more than last week's shambles
--- they seem to find ways to beat us when strong underdogs .

I'd love a big win, but am nervous.

Be real people. North are much worse than us, their list was gutted. We're also switched on, wheras North don't even have electricity connected.

I've heard this sort of thing before

 

[GROTTO]

I've heard this sort of thing before

North led the reigning Premiers* at quarter time in R1.

I would not be taking them lightly.

 

[maxlilly]

We are playing with some structure and system, North aren't even close to that.
I can see Tex kicking another 5 goals this weekend.
Hopefully it's a good win and we keep building confidence in the gameplan
Hoping Thilthorpe gets his debut this week also

 

[pjcrows]

Debuting the new yellow guernsey this week?

 

[Bay62]

The email from our new CEO was a decent start - seemed to be engaged and continuing the trend of giving us more information not less. And not a word about clearing his mechanism

 

[moogerfooger]

Didn't think Essendon would get within a bull's roar of Sydney. Funny things happen.

 

[1970crow]

Can we destroy them as revenge for David Noble trading Dangerfield on the first day of the trade period?

First hour.

 

[1970crow]

Interestingly, it is currently one of those strange situations where none of the sides in the top 8 have lost to the bottom 10 sides. Games between top 8 and bottom 10 are currently 14-0.

Only a small chance of that being preserved this weekend IMO. Further games 'across the divide' in R4 are Syd vs Ess, Dogs vs Lions, Eagles vs Saints, and us vs North. Even if those games go to form, there is still a likely movement of sides in and out of the 8.

If the Suns get up over Carlton (or Carlton win by a big margin), they could displace one of Geelong or Richmond losing to Melbourne or Port respectively.

Collingwood beating GWS would displace the other if they both lose.

The status quo would likely be maintained if Geelong and Richmond both win, and the other games follow form. A big win to Richmond or the Suns could push Port outside on %age.

Lot of effort going into a round 3 ladder.

 

[Scorpus]

Sloane out tips the balance a bit.

Crows by a slim margin, not a belting

Firstly hope he’s ok but we’ll *! Of course. Typical Crows luck. Just when he’s found form again and was killing it. Hope everything goes well with his op.

 

[Golumless]

Come on full midfield time for Fogarty.

 

[GreyCrow]

Sloane out certainly makes one think the margin may be closer.

At home I have the Crows by 10 goals - away and without Sloane it gets to under 4 goals in my opinion

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Come on full midfield time for Fogarty.

Let’s see what The Fog has got

 

[Dangarman]

Lot of effort going into a round 3 ladder.

Nah, playing with numbers, stats, history and permutations for me is anything but effort.

Speaking of history, can we unseat a North coach for the 3rd time?

Dean Laidley now goes by the name Dani Laidley according to Wikipedia.

So the true nickname is now the junkyard bitch*

Bitch being the correct term for a female dog
