JLT2 - Game Day Thread

[Magma]

bloody hell, talk about one hell of a prejack

 

[Tyls83]

I’m furious and contacting the club. When I microwaved my membership card just then it gave off toxic fumes and now I feel crook.

 

[cammo84]

and you lose a JLT and you go back into your box what does it say but the last cows side to win at Alberton was your reserve side ..

I'm more concerned about games won at Adelaide Oval

 

[Bearded Clam]

**** me, the cringe factor of some of our posters here is unreal. Came to have a lurk without posting just to get a view on how we went from the other side but this shit too embarrassing to deal with.

Slammer... he’s actually talking about you making a knob of yourself and you’re “liking” it.... ahahahahahahaha... that’s what’s classed as peak stupid..

 

[LittleCrowBoy]

Yeah nah, they won’t be top 4.

Why not ??? ....a sound midfield....great ruckman....hard running defenders and Dixon and Watts up forward ???
Credit where it's due ....this year shapes up as the biggest chance yet of a Port / Adelaide GF

 

[Roovolution]

LOL ... ... Keep dreaming

How many premiership points does a JLT game get you these days?

 

[Interstater]

Yes...your right....but I must confess ...I'm getting concerned Dermie might be right....the Crows forwards really do only play well when the game is on THEiR term

Wash your mouth out, Dermie hasn't been right for a very long time.

Thoughts on some players...
Gibson - Pretty much what we expected when we got him. Runs all day and gets a lot of the ball, but God his disposal is awful.
CEY - Looked really strong and won some good clearances. Could well play in R1. If it's a choice between CEY and Hampton, CEY wins every day of the week.
Hampton - No change since 2017, when he was consistently one of our least effective players in the 9 games he played. Turnover looking for somewhere to happen.
Gibbs - Surprisingly fumbly.
Betts - Never managed to get into the game. Beginning to wonder if we've seen the best of him, in which case giving him a long contract will turn out to have been a big mistake.
Fogarty - Really good in the first half. Very quiet in the second half. Partly due to the ball being mostly in Port's forward line, partly because Port tightened up on him and didn't give him the leeway he had earlier. Will play in R1 if Tex isn't ready to go.
Hartigan - Dear God he was awful. If he wasn't standing by and watching Watts kick goals, he was kicking it out on the full himself. Let that settle in for a while - 5 of Watts' 6 goals were kicked on Hartigan.
Murphy - Didn't kick a goal, but showed himself to be a real hard nut.

Umpiring - Adelaide players almost had to be decapitated in order to win a free. Felt like poetic justice when Pittard did his hamstring, given that the umpire refused to pay the "holding" free to Atkins. Then there are other examples, such as allowing Port to substitute a left footer for Neade when Mackay kicked it out of bounds near the point post. Ridiculous number of Adelaide frees that were missed.

Where were all these port supporters halfway through last year? It was quiet then. Full of yap now. O that's right. The year hasn't started yet.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Yes...your right....but I must confess ...I'm getting concerned Dermie might be right....the Crows forwards really do only play well when the game is on THEiR term

Jenkins is the big worry there. Fog make his own terms. Hope he gets given a go.

 

[Tyls83]

I’m really concerned how our game plan is going to stack up during the season when we have to play at windy hill, Moorabbin and Gotch’s paddock every second week.

 

[footy4ever]

Why not ??? ....a sound midfield....great ruckman....hard running defenders and Dixon and Watts up forward ???

Why? Because there are 4 better teams than Port in the comp. More than 4 in fact, and port can’t beat top 8 sides...in the real world.

 

[Roovolution]

I thought the Crows really missed Charlie Cameron leg speed in the fwd line today.

And his crap kicking for goal too.

 

[Roovolution]

What has an Essendon flog got to do with what you're crapping on about. Stop...take a look mat yourself...and then logoff! Why be a goose?

You are acting like a knob.

You’re the one who after winning a JLT game goes on the other team’s board to try and puff your chest out. Loser.

Dog shit coaching staff.

 

[Tyls83]

Last time Bryce Gibbs played port at an SANFL venue, he kicked 6 goals.... at 17. Delist

 

[Magma]

remember when brett eddy kicked more goals in a pre season game than his actual afl career?

 

[Redleg Crow]

The first half strategy was interesting - clearly told to played on at all costs. Kept the ball moving. High risk, high reward stuff.
Were a few times I would have preferred to see a kick than a handball, but otherwise it looked good - especially the kick into the leading Fog.

 

[John Who]

Ok, the big question is...who are the new ins for round 1?

 

[footy4ever]

Dog shit coaching staff.

...for starters.

 

[Magma]

i reckon fogarty and cey have really put themselves in contention. depends how walker and brouch are for rd 1 though. murphy looked okay too, but think there's less room for him than the other two.

 

[Tyls83]

Watts played very well, he’s played a lot of good footy over the years. I’m more than happy to look forward to 12+ years of Fogarty though.

 

[John Who]

i reckon fogarty and cey have really put themselves in contention. depends how walker and brouch are for rd 1 though. murphy looked okay too, but think there's less room for him than the other two.

I think really this is how both teams should be approaching this game. To see who deserves to be playing in Rd 1. The result is really meaningless.
Come on Jeff...Hurry up and upload it onto Youtube...

 

[mattymac]

Gibson is a tagger and was clearly brought in for that reason. His disposal is too poor for any other role in our game plan.

Jenkins should be handed a SANFL jumper on the way out of Alberton

How good is it to have Fog?! Gun. Should line up with Tex.

Dmac still garbage. Please come on Milera.

Geez, you really are stupid... you “liked” the above post from power supporter “handsome jack” who was lamenting the fact that other power supporters (re.. you) were in here making knobs of themselves..

So yeah... what’s an “Essendon flog” got to do with it you incredible moron..
