Game Day Game Day thread Crows V Doctors

[John Who]

First time I’ve seen beartoo with a drunken post.

Few points:

• MM is a tough nut. Receiver of a full-frontal collision with a thin frame, still wants to play the following week. The defensive spot is now his to lose this season.
• want to see more of Jones. This kid’s toughness is underrated. Has some genuine speed about him and would like to see him use it more.
• I hope Cook gets to be the Sub. Want to see more of this lad, some genuine X-factor about him.

Hopefully this thread has more posts after than before the actual game...

 

[AmericanCrow]

Wait.

Game day today?

I’m currently zinging along at around the speed of light on the bullet train in Japan so I guess there’s a time shift thing happening. I hope I can see the match so when I get back to real time I can have a bet on the outcome.

I’ll let you know who wins!!

I ask you bastards for the lottery numbers all the time and no one ever gives me the right ones

What makes me believe you got the right score I can wager on??

On the many occasions that I've crashed out at 8pm and woken a few hours later, I feel guilty starting a game day thread. I'm not sure what it takes to crack the top off near 3 days early.

1) Yeh, Game Day (today) is not Thursday (stating the obvious), so I am curious to know what prompted beartoo to jump the gun. Were you watching Marty and the Doc and decided to go Back to the Future?

Who are the Doctors?? And why has game day come prematurely?

I thought they were Dockers?

2) yes, they're the Dockers. The Fremantle 'Doctor' is the breeze that blows in from the West to cool down a Test Match.
It's a clever soundalike pun; Dockers/Doctors.
The OP is just putting the wind up you. Winding us up.

Hopefully, by game's end Fremantle will be Gone, with the Wind.

Back to the Game (Day).

It's gonna be a slippery slog this arvo, unless we get sunshine for the next 8.5 hours.
I saw enough last week to think that the Crows can give them the slip, by about 8 points.

a bit like us beating Port, Freo beating Eagles isn't a particularly meaningful form line. I don't think they're yet the side that I thought they'd be this year. We should win this.

there to tear us a new one for once.

Our mids are going to need to rove to Darcy's taps though as he is going to monster ROB.

Wind blowing today. Might help us kick straight...

Loving Max already. Going to be our 'Mr Reliable' for a decade.

Loved Jones coming on last week and having an impact. I have a soft spot for him and really hope he can forge a spot and call it his own. Would like to see him play 4 qtrs and lay 8 tackles and just straight line the ball today. Ideally, he'd also find a bit of the ball and have 20 touches. He has a bit of inside and a bit of outside ability. Just needs more confidence at AFL level, and a consistent position/role

An odd game to pick a winner

I had Freo doing well this year and they seem disjointed

It's our home game no Nat and weather for close contact.

Giddy up for an Adelaide win by 16

 

[FR0GGY]

Watch rachele kick 4 and do a backflip

 

[CrowBloke]

We should win this.

Yeah, "should".
Perchance to win: ay, there's the rub!

We've been conditioned by inconsistency over the last 16 months to dare to dream of wins.
I thought we'd be 0-3 after 3 rounds, such that last week's win (when they did play some beautiful football) has made me think that the Crows should win this, like you.
It's a real test, isn't it, for this fledgling side to show they've turned the corner and win today?

(waddaya reckon, AmericanCrow ??)

Me too

So Harry is sub. What happens if there's a late out? The other 3 emergencies all played SANFL yesterday. Does one of them just back it up?

Me too

If you both kick 4, we'll be a good chance!

 

[George CantStandYa]

Hey I didn’t say off

 

[1970crow]

Would make for a sleepy final quarter.

 

[BunjiMC]

Rankine paying $9.50 for 4+ goals. On a day like today his a 50/50 chance.

 

[CrowToon]

I hope everyone plays well

 

[pjcrows]

Today will tell us more about where we're at than any of the games so far.

 

[FR0GGY]

I hope everyone plays well

I wonder if Frederick injured himself doing that somersault last round?
