Preview Practice Match: Crows vs Port, Saturday Feb 27/2/21 @ 11am

[Mutineer]

Will be interesting to see how the mob down the road approach what is essentially a scratch match. I wonder if the games will have AFL umpires officiating?

I certainly hope so so the players can bed in this ridiculous stand the mark rule.

 

[hey shorty]

I'm having zero doubts he'll be there round 1 at the moment.

I don't think he will be, and I'm relatively confident with that.

But we'll see.

They've been umpiring the Vic games.... Hopefully that doesn't mean we get Eleni the Port Cheerleader

 

[hey shorty]

Good to see Murray getting a run too.

 

[Torpedro]

I’m hoping Worrell comes in for kelly or Murray next week. He deserves a shot

 

[Scorpus]

So here's what our practice match squad looks like compared to the final round last year

Out: Talia (injured), Crouch (injured), Mackay (injured), Crouch (FA), Hartigan (traded), Stengle (suspended), Himmelberg
In: McAsey, Murphy, Hately, Seedsman, Hamill, Frampton, McHenry, Murray, Milera, Rowe, Butts

I've highlighted the new players for 2021 and the unforced changes

 

[Golumless]

Quietly, it's nice to see McHenry and Hamill in the seniors squad, and it probably all but confirms we'll list Murray as our sup pick.

Pedlar not being included is surprising though.

Himmberg dropped ain’t good to hear

It's a massive year for Ned, hopefully he starts playing the footy that saw him drafted.

 

[Doctor B]

Will there be a replay of the 2's?

It will be interesting watching Pedlar and Berry in the midfield, if the two talls in Himmelberg and Thilthorpe gel, also Newchurch at their feet.

 

[hey shorty]

Yeah I'm probably more keen to watch the 2s game.

Only 12 listed players in the side and Taylor I think.

 

[mattymac]

No Pedlar after his game last week?

Shut up

 

[RePete]

These teams aren't really true reflections of who we think our best-22 is. The game next week will probably be a much different team with the team for round 1 different again so wouldn't worry.

 

[craig crowing]

No Pedlar and no Worrell very disappointing not giving them a chance to build on their showing last week in a practice match where want to see what a couple of these kids can do.

 

[hey shorty]

Usually the 2nd game is more indicative of the R1 side, however we are playing the same team again so who the **** knows.

Pedlar you can understand as his fitness base wouldn’t be ready yet

worrell would have been good to see though

Adelaide crows rebuild:
1. Get rid of senior players and sell youth as the answer
2. Play oldest list of players possible

 

[Mutineer]

Yeah I'm probably more keen to watch the 2s game.

Strange that the mob down the road are streaming both games live but we're not?

Still at least we can watch the game.

Both games will be live streamed at portadelaidefc.com.au and on the Official Port Adelaide mobile app.

You would hope this is the case.

 

[ams4crows]

It's only when you look at the two teams side by side that you realise how poor the list truly is.

The back the senior boys in is getting so old and tiresome, there is zero to look forward to in the AFL trial, most people wanting to tune into the SANFL trial more than the AFL one tells you all you need to know with how this board values the list.

 

[Red mist]

So, Hateley was reasonably arse in the trial, shouldn’t he be given a rev up by putting Berry or Pedlar in front?
