Preview Preview and Changes Vs Adelaide

[Freddy Bassett]

Leaving aside your terrible myopia, the Crows beat Sydney at the SCG, Geelong by 10 goals, Carlton by 12 Goals at Etihad when they were flying, Fremantle in Perth, West Coast and Fremantle in the Semi when they'd just come off a great win against the Cats. Who are the real teams?

GWS and Melbourne

 

[Elite Crow]

Yes. You beat Sydney when it mattered, didn't you

You said our game never stood up when it came to the real teams. Losing to the eventual premiers doesn't discount the fact we beat some real teams including the premiers once.

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Gee Adelaide would really want to win this one.... Wouldn't want to lose to little old Port Adelaide after puffing your chests out all week.

 

[Chrizzt]

Thread is getting off topic. This should be a preview and changes thread for the upcoming match, not slagging the other team off.

 

[Gillian Batty]

Interesting, you don't consider beating Sydney, Geelong, West Coast and Freo 3 times, beating "real" teams. The flip side some of you are getting upset for getting no recognition for beating Melbourne and GWS.

Look, sorry dudes. It's just my opinion. It just so happens that I am correct. So you beat Carlton...nice. Where did they finish? So you beat Freo a couple of times when they're in the midst of learning a new gameplan? You won't get near them this year. You lost your lead-up CHF and with that, you basically become Fev-era Carlton. As a result, you won't make the 8. Feel free to bookmark.

GWS and Melbourne

Crows so far 1 loss to Essendon and a scrappy win over a team that was beaten by the Bulldogs by 68 points. Soooooooooo....... not really that great.

We beat Freo in the finals, so your opinion is wrong.

 

[ploppy]

renouf is in for redden

 

[Stewies Power]

Surprised to see Redden omitted.

IN: Cassisi, Gray, Moore, Renouf
OUT: Redden (omitted)
Interchange from: Cassisi, Gray, Heath, Mitchell, Moore, Renouf, Wines

 

[Noobz0r]

In: Cassisi, Moore, Renouf, Gray
Out: Redden (omitted)

Gray would be sub you would think. I don't think anyone deserves to be dropped for Cassisi or Moore at this stage though.

Who's this mystical lead-up CHF you are talking about? Have you ever watched footy before?

 

[Shane_Mag]

Renouf in will be good. Our best ruckman imo.

 

[Stewies Power]

In: Cassisi, Moore, Renouf, Gray
Out: Redden (omitted)

Well if Renouf comes in for Redden then who does Gray come in for?

 

[HugeJohnson]

If Heath is dropped for Cassisi I will spit chips. Renouf in for Redden only change please.

 

[Gillian Batty]

I certainly watched the 2012 Preliminary Final

Irrelevant as much as you beat a side by 69 pts that was smashed a week later by 148 pts

Does this make Essendon a 70-80 pt better side than port and if so the Crows a 7 goal better side than Port because we got within 5 goals of Essendon

My point is form changes from week to week and all that matters is Sunday

 

[Steve Dore]

Well if Renouf comes in for Redden then who does Gray come in for?

Forget Gray, who does Cassisi come in for?

 

[ploppy]

i cant see who will come out...cant we just play them all.

 

[Gillian Batty]

Moore will come in for Mitchell. I don't know who the sub will be, but he killed it in the clearances last weekend, and that was our deficiency. So I gather he will play a full game.

But you are all relying on your form from last year to back up your arguments?

 

[King_Tredrea]

Adelaide aren't a Top 8 side, they lack class across the board.The honeymoon is over for Sanderson now, if he can get the most out of this list they MAY sneak into finals if everything rolls their way.

 

[StrappingTape]

**** off cassisi urgh. Redeem heft. We won't go with two Ruckan with rain forecast so gray in

 

[Chrizzt]

Hopefully Renouf in for Redden is the only change. I'd guess Moore is in to cover if Hammer is not 100% game day. Cassisi and Gray only named to give the Crows selectors something to think about. Was gonna say that no Butcher in is a good sign that Schulzy is right, but wouldn't be surprised if they start Renouf in ruck, Lobbe up forward which gives us 2 rucks as well as the additional pace of replacing Schulz with someone like Moore/Gray.

 

[Stewies Power]

Forget Gray, who does Cassisi come in for?

no one. He should just be an emergency.

 

[Gillian Batty]

Renouf for Redden is the correct call for this week.
