Review GBU vs the Giants

[Bearded Clam]

good

We get a decent first pick this year.. is it our lowest ever?.. must be close.

Bad

Tex - shithouse tonight.. cue in the rack fonally please
Mackay - “terrible 200”

Ugly

More injuries - just thankfully not for us this time but not good to see

 

[Vooligan]

Rename thread to Good, Bad and the Taylor Walker.

 

[Scorpus]

Jacobs is an absolute liability. He's been pathetic most of the year, but tonight was an extra special dose of awful.

Smashed in the ruck by GWS second-stringer. Dominated. Destroyed. Obliterated. Several times he didn't even reach up for the tap, that's how bad he was.

He is cooked. Finished. Tonight should be his last game as a Crow. How long will it take the coaches to realize he is cooked (like with Thommo)?

Sad when he has given us a lot in past years, but it's over for him

 

[pjcrows]

Phew. Glad that's over. And by that I mean the 2018 season. A clusterf*ck of idiocy that needs to be corrected. Put the guys that need it on ice, have a break, make coaching and department changes where needed, trade/draft well, and get ready for the 2019 pre-season.

[Squiba]

Rozee and Rankine, thanks.

 

[Infra Ted]

Don't think Mackay deserves to be in the bad. He wasn't great but plenty worse than him.

The fact he has played 200 games definitely deserves to be in the ugly.

 

[Blueboys7]

Good to see Smith play well and find plenty of the footy.

Reminding us all of the gun he is across half back.

 

[spenze]

Our forward line is a shambles, either through injury, poor work rate, mind melding Star Trek camp, poor coaching or poor forward entries, it is a ****ing shambles

 

[Pea Nut]

Meh, not even worried. The West Coast win will do me. Finally though it's officially season over, time to look forward, and forget about this abomination of a year.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Good:
Smith
Jenkins

Bad:
The rest who aren't in the Ugly part

Ugly:
Jacobs
Tex
Atkins
Douglas
Greenwood
Gallucci
Cheney
Brown
Season 2018

 

[Crowked]

What ever we do at half time, we need to change. Another pathetic effort early in the 3rd. This is where we consistently lose games.

Do we need someone who can motivate us after a break? Pyke clearly can’t.

 

[dylan123]

What a painful season this has been to endure after last year.

 

[Magma]

just the usual really. our good is good enough but the fade outs and the cheap goals absolutely kill us. we're not fit enough to match it with the best over 4 quarters and buckle far too often under pressure.

what is ugly is the club's desire to play walker when he is obviously unfit to play. rushing him back from injury when he desperately needed to have proper time back is just pointless. he can barely run, can't turn and offers nothing currently. everyone else can see it. they then did the exact same thing with mcgovern. utterly reckless and for no benefit whatsoever.

 

[NTRabbit]

Even the club will now finally be forced into writing off this season. Now's the time to start working out how to get rid of some of the list cloggers: CEY and Atkins should absolutely be joining Hampton, Gibson, and Otten heading out the door, just for starters.

 

[Scorpus]

It's not just Jacobs that's a liability on the field, Walker is offering us absolutely nothing as well

 

[SellarStardom]

The Ugly

Sauce and Walker - you are both f'in horrible liabilities, time to have a serious think. Sorry Walker you are not a captain, tonight was pathetic

Our forward entries. Please get rid of Campo and Francou, f'in useless

Bad
Well the entire club.
Too - can you please f' off and get a decent CEO. Please piss off your mate Burton

Good
Nothing - so gutted, from GF to nothing

 

[TRP1996]

Good

• Smith.
• JJ did alright. Lynch's form was a little better.
• We can stop deluding ourselves re: finals.

Bad

• Still getting nothing from Tex and Eddie.
• The free reversal and Tex's likely suspension for that tackle (though it might force us to rest him, so...)
• Ratkins.
• CEY and Greenie poor. Though some of the bigger names in our midfield were pretty unspectacular too.
• Inability to overrun an undermanned opposition.
• Giving up easy and/or late goals.
• Doedee a little off, Murph and Gooch still inconsistent within games, but they're kids and this is to be expected.

Ugly

• Dougie's hospital handpasses.
• The state of our ruck stocks.
• Our not-quite-a-premiership hangover, this season, etc.

Don't think Mackay deserves to be in the bad. He wasn't great but plenty worse than him.

The fact he has played 200 games definitely deserves to be in the ugly.

There’s no spot for him in the team next year.. especially with potentially 2 or three young guns from this draft coming into it in a few months time..

Thanks for the service dave.. but its sanfl or suns next year for you!

 

[Shaz2012]

Good

Great to see the emergence of some new players. Fog, Doedee, Gallucci, Murphy.

Great to see Milera take a big step up. And great to get a couple of games into Smith. Seed also went to another level.

Bad

Disappointing years from Sloane, Matt Crouch, Gibbs, Lynch.

Quite possibly the end of some of, if not all of, Betts, Walker, Douglas, Sauce.

Ugly

We will keep playing guys that are past it in 2019.

Our coaching and high performance team are well below the level needed. No real change expected. Paraphrasing Pykes own words, if you keep on doing the same things, you keep on getting the same results.

 

[Bay62]

Looking forward to the changes. I think there will be several positive ones

Always look forward

 

[WetCrow1991]

Takes a special effort to be worse in the 2nd half against a side with players dropping like flies.

 

[Geoffa32]

Tex and Sauce should be done for the year.

Bit if a meh game for me.

Milera was mostly good.
Jenkins playing more like a key forward.
Sloaney wnas Sloaney trying his guts out


Season over.

Beaten by a team with no bench ???....good to see we supported DMac’s average career.....with a average performance by most Crows players. Solidarity !!!
