Preview Gold Coast Suns v Adelaide Crows, Saturday 16th of March, People First Stadium, Gold Coast, 7.40pm Adelaide time.

[Slime Roy]

Thankfully there's the SANFL trial game against Sturt Saturday at Thebby Oval 10 AM start for Keane to have a tune up.

Pheew! Wasn't liking the thought of 3 weeks without the big fella

 

[radiojake]

so what jumper are the Crows wearing tonight? Home with white shorts? Home with blue shorts?

The 90s throwback that'll clash even worse?

 

[Slime Roy]

Slippery, you’d want sure ball handlers right? Soligo as sub will be able to throw the ball back to the boundary umpires

and tap em when they miss a decision.. could be an expensive little qld trip!

 

[Jarman3]

I haven't really paid much attention to the preseason games... is it surprising we've picked Borlase over Keane? Keane looked ok to me in the games he played late last year. Has he had an injury over the preseason? Form dropped away? Or has Borlase gone up a notch?

You’re a day early.

Tonight?

Re the who-will-be-sub? speculation --- if beating GCS depends upon who the sub is, we're in big trouble.

 

[BennyGan]

Hey guys, who is most likely to keep their spot in the side once Tex is back between Burgess and Gollant?
I know Burgess did some backup ruck work in the suns VFL the last couple years, would that give him the
slight edge over Gollant?

I'd assume (hope) that would depend on who plays better this week.

 

[beartoo]

I think that's the case. Unless we decide to use Borlase as 2nd ruck.

Strange take, surely the question you should be asking is why aren’t we playing someone who could help us win? Because that’s what selection is all about, picking your best team

Probably burgess as he’s more versatile (can go back or ruck)

 

[Southerntakeover]

tbh if the rebuild is going to be successful, tex missing should not be a factor, because he's unlikely to be there when we are contending. tomorrow will be a good test
Could berry be playing to tag? rowell/anderson have carved us up before. not sure he has the speed if so.
Surely murphy is sub, and if it's soligo because he hasnt got his fitness up for a full game yet, why is he even in the squad? what happens if there's an injury 1 minute in?

It's Thilthorpe though

 

[Coopers]

Has Butts shrunk. They have him listed now at 195cm. He was 200cm before.

That happened to my grandma

 

[Coopers]

Is it time already for the seamless transition to 'Hamish was right, amazing pick', to 'selectors are right, these guys can never play, more SANFL for you loser' already?

Surely we just make sure that Curtin is fully fit and then we have to prioritize him being in the team.

Surely.

McHenry has flown in. Late out?

 

[Coopers]

Bigger butts were in style in 2018.

Sir Mixalot was into it way back in 1992.

 

[119others]

About to board a flight to ADL and the Crows boys were on the arriving flight led off by upbeat Keays and ROB. A few words to fire the boys up.

McHenry was there. Butts looked a little ginger. Rachele seemed to be the joker of the pack. Defenders all walking as a group playing around.

Now I didn’t want to be too much of a fanboi so didn’t stalk too much haha. But strangely I didn’t see Fog or Rankine either. Hopefully just missed them amongst all the disembarking passengers but imagine a forward line without our 4 best forwards eek

 

[crows dude]

McHenry has flown in. Late out?

Wouldnt he be the travelling emergency

 

[footy4ever]

Waterboy.

Maybe we just bought him a ticket. Get him a seat behind the Suns bench and let him just heckle them all game.

Haha, NO whistlin' though!

Yes it is

Borlaise has improved a bit though

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Far out, the two players I was most excited to watch (TT and Tex) not playing.

I really don’t like our chances at all now.

 

[Scorpus]

Jokes aside, this is a good idea for finals. Buy a group of tickets near the bench and relentlessly sledge the opponents through loud chants
