Opinion Non-Crows AFL 7

[jackster83]

The first dull game of this round so far.

 

[TheRankineFile]

She just mixed up with McCluggage with Cameron. That's a talent.

The male commentators frequently do the same. Its very difficult calling the game.

In fairness ours was to the neutral fan

Those were the days…..

Is Lyons out of form?

 

[Samcro24]

Is Lyons out of form?

Coming back from injury I think

 

[TheRankineFile]

Is Lyons out of form?

No he is coaching well.

 

[Crow_68]

I am in the minority but I quite enjoy Kelli.

She doesnt make up names for players or go off on a tangent.

Then who are ‘The Big-O’, ‘Goldy’ and ‘Charlie’?

Just call them by their surnames, it’s a simple skill.

LDU is the one I forgive.

Last night was pretty dull most of the time. For a moment it looked like a game in the third.

 

[GROTTO]

Lions might blow this one out.



Kelly Underwood is a terrible commentator.

Any game where Richmond gets smashed at Adelaide and Port don't win is a pants party.

 

[TheRankineFile]

Can be applied to any commentator.

 

[GROTTO]

Can be applied to any commentator.

Not at all, her commentary is on another level of bad.

 

[Samcro24]

Kelli might be ok if she took the clothes peg off her nose.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Agree on Port. Richmond I have no strong feelings one way or the other. I did enjoy them subbing out Cotchin though.

 

[GROTTO]

The first dull game of this round so far.

Thats why its outside Metro Adelaide. They knew.

 

[Samcro24]

Don't believe that. If she was an ex male player u wouldn't notice.

Yeah that’s it. It’s her gender, not the cringey, nasal commentary.

Everyone loves the male commentators too, BT, Derwayne, and who could forget Basil!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Gus Logue has been ordinary

 

[BACCS]

Liking the talk that if (when) we get Gather Round again next year that the Barossa and Mclaren Vale are a chance to get games. Surely Glenelg hosts a Richmond game too?

 

[Scorpus]

It's not even her voice. She just frequently gets stuff wrong and doesn't know who the players are

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Her voice is pretty muteworthy. Then again I'd say that about many of the commentators.

 

[ABAB]

Looks like North can only play 1 to 2 quarters just like us last year so it will be interesting if they can pinch a few games. If not, we might have 2 borderline 1st rounders from GCS and North (Hawks and West Coast certain to be bottom 2) in what hopefully continue to be a stronger draft.

yep..they are where we were a couple of years back..they will get another season or 2 of high draft picks in and can trade for players - their time is not now, its in 3-5 years time

 

[Crow_68]

Easy review this one….

 

[Dirty Bird]

Liking the talk that if (when) we get Gather Round again next year that the Barossa and Mclaren Vale are a chance to get games. Surely Glenelg hosts a Richmond game too?

I'm not sure I like both getting a game in the same year.
I'd probably rotate the regions.

Year 1) Adelaide Hills
Year 2) Barossa Valley
Year 3) McLaren Vale

etc.

Also, I do like the idea of Glenelg, but I doubt big 4 teams will ever head there.*

I'm thinking something like

Thursday Night - Adelaide Oval - Adelaide vs Melbourne
Friday Twilight - Norwood Oval - Fremantle vs North Melbourne
Friday Night - Adelaide Oval - Port Adelaide vs Richmond
Saturday Afternoon - Barossa Valley - West Coast vs Sydney
Saturday Twilight - Adelaide Oval - Brisbane vs Hawthorn
Saturday Night - Adelaide Oval - Collingwood vs Western Bulldogs
Sunday Afternoon - Adelaide Oval - Essendon vs St Kilda
Sunday Afternoon - Glenelg Oval - Greater Western Sydney vs Gold Coast
Sunday Twilight - Adelaide Oval - Carlton vs Geelong

*I'm just thinking of local grounds.
I'd put them into 4 categories

1) Amazing locations, poor facilities with minimal room to get adequate facilities (for 10k+ crowds) - Glenelg, Norwood ovals
2) Pathetic locations, Room to put in extra facilities (portable toilets, food trucks etc.) - Nourlunga, Elizabeth ovals
3) Average locations, room to put in extra facilities - Prospect, Richmond, Woodville ovals
4) Good location, not enough capacity for fans, no room for extra facilities - Unley Oval.

Maybe rotate the Friday Twilight game between Norwood and Glenelg ovals, with the Sunday game rotating between Prospect/Richmond and Woodville ovals.

Go for a 6/2/1 split (AO/suburban/regional)
