Preview Preliminary Final v Brisbane Lions Friday night at Metricon Stadium

[1990crow]

She wasn't 5m back. It was just dumb play

Yes she was

 

[jenny61_99]

It was a LONG bloody drive down for this s**t.

 

[MarcusP2]

I mean, I never expected to win, Brisbane are better. But straight up non competitive is not acceptable.

 

[Dirty Bird]

Can someone explain why that was 50? She was 5m plus behind Biddell who was on the mark.

She plays for Adelaide?

 

[Scorpus]

Yeah so Clarke we aren't going to win this playing "our way" where Brisbane have spares outside and behind the ball.

******* even up the numbers you plonker

 

[ams4crows]

Why?

Once you get up by a certain amount and know you're gonna win generally is a courtesy to not get up in the oppositions face or do over the top celebrations, because you look like an idiot

 

[dplggr47]

Always knew Hodder and Wardlaw were impressive. They've been fantastic. Brisbane are just miles ahead of the Crows this season. To not even have a single shot on goal in half a footy is pathetic.

 

[Scorpus]

Also we need to recruit athletic types, not glacial poorly skilled talls - and we need to play ALL of these types.

Not leaving players like McKinnon, Kustermann, Tonon in the reserves

 

[Firewalker]

He’s been totally exposed, from the outside it looks like he’s hardly shown any interest this season to be fair.

 

[Scorpus]

To have no counter to being beaten the same way multiple times is really poor. Quite embarrassing actually to do nothing in the way he has

 

[1990crow]

"nothing stands out statistically"
If you ignore the free kick count, sure.

 

[MarcusP2]

We call this a 'Neil'.

 

[Interloperer]

Charlton was one of the most dangerous outside players. Not sure why she was moved inside other than weird stereotypes about that being where the best players are.

 

[Dirty Bird]

They got 7k to Brisbane vs Bulldogs in 2018 In Melbourne......
ANd it was free then.....

 

[Scorpus]

Charlton was one of the most dangerous outside players. Not sure why she was moved inside other than weird stereotypes about that being where the best players are.

I think she's done a good job. But it's probably because we had no one else

 

[Scorpus]

Geez Fox Footy (except Chloe Molloy) making some stupid reasons for not having the GF in Queensland

 

[Interloperer]

She's done extremely well. She's done less harm to the opposition in her current role in the setup though

 

[MarcusP2]

Lol 'they would get a fair crowd at Marvel because of Fitzroy fans, you feel for them... You can't say no to growth where you can get a big stadium... We could debate it all night...'. No you can't. The actual AFLW player said they would want home ground advantage for winning.

GF for sure at Marvel next year.

 

[Firewalker]

At least the positive is the Grand Final is now zero possibility of being held at the bloody cruddy Richmond oval

 

[Ciao Giacomo]

This so reminds me of the 2017 GF. We match them until half way through the second quarter but every 50/50 free goes against us. Their first three goals come from obvious frees not paid to us followed by soft frees to them. Then they are off to the races……

Brisbane are a great team but I am proud of our girls!

 

[MelbourneCrow]

Hard enough to beat this excellent Brisbane team without the one-sided umpiring

 

[Dirty Bird]

Geez Fox Footy (except Chloe Molloy) making some stupid reasons for not having the GF in Queensland

But they have 30, 40, 50k stadiums available (Despite only getting 7k to the only GF held in that state......)

 

[MarcusP2]

That's embarrassing.

 

[Scorpus]

But they have 30, 40, 50k stadiums available (Despite only getting 7k to the only GF held in that state......)

"Not allowing the game to grow"

You know what limits the game? Preventing fans of the best team going to their earned home final

 

[JP Sauce]

Might have been mentioned pregame, but I just noticed all the pink hair ties for Heather Anderson.
