Game Day R.3 AFLW - Crows vs Carlton - 11.35AM Sunday Thebarton Oval

[WaynesWorld19]

Was impossible to watch with the back view all white on TV. Didn't make out the teams

Still hard from the back view ....both sides not that good, but just love the enthusiasm of the players ...infectious and emotional

The clash policy is extraordinarily dumb some times

The clash policy is extraordinarily dumb some times

that's because its based on selling away jumpers instead of avoiding clashes.

 

[Scorpus]

Exciting game between Fremantle and GWS

 

[Scorpus]

Oh no... a draw

 

[CrowinNT]

Draw

Is that a 'spot the difference' puzzle?

So after tonight's WB v Melb game, is it too early to say it's then down to 4 teams?

Agree, its why tomorrow is important for the winner.

Probably 6 wins will guarantee a spot, 5 and percentage would go close.

So whoever loses tonight will be 1-2, meaning they need to win their last 4 games to finish at 5-2. Comp seems pretty even so that might be hard to pull off, not impossible.

Hopefully, the Crows Supporters Group show up to this game. It needs someone to start up some crowd chants so it feels more like a genuine AFC home game. Just some "Adelaide clap clap clap" would be good to hear.

They were at the game last time, selling sausages on bread. And thanks for that as they seemed to be the only food going

But yes some chants would be nice

Thanks for reminding me. I mustn't forget to have a stupid amount of sausages tomorrow, for a good cause of course.

Or you could start it. The issue at Thebby is how open it is that even it they start if going from behind the goals, it won't travel around the ground for others to hear that well at all.

Bit hard to start a chant from my couch on the gold coast, but ill give it a shot.

At the dog park last night, a couple of kids turned up with a footy and played kick to kick for half an hour. Normally i wouldn't have noticed, but it was two girls in their early teens who turned up and did it. Never seen that before. I think it's making an impression.

I've got free time tomorrow, so I'm going down to the match. I've always hated Carlton so it should be a corker.

 

[Firewalker]

Just on the schematics of the actual match, it might be too simplistic to say at this stage of the competition but from the two games I've seen Carlton play they're a bit like the Bulldogs for mine and look like they leave it to too few out there so if Brie Davey's numbers are limited off half-back, Jakobsson's role as a marking target negated & Vescio's impact on the scoreboard is low the Crows girls win the game pretty easily

Really, really great story on "Tex" Perkins, unfortunately it's a subscriber only article and with the rule about posting full articles being posted enforced I can't share it.

“I’ve been copping a bit of banter from the plumbers at work and family and friends but I’ve been out a couple of times and people have stopped me and had a chat.“It’s amazing to think that in such a short space of time we went from a lot of people saying we didn’t deserve a chance to play to now people genuinely care about us and saying they want to watch.”The second moment happened at training on Monday night when Perkins — nicknamed ‘Tex’, largely because of comparisons with the captain of the Crows’ men’s side (there’s also the surname she shares with Australian singer Tex Perkins) — finally met her namesake.
“He kind of screamed out ‘Tex’ from the top of his lungs and it was quite funny because the team was walking around and he called someone else Tex,” Perkins said.
“So I don’t think he has a problem with sharing his nickname.”

Enjoy the game everyone and cheer loudly. Good chance for a win and top of the ladder today.

Go Crows...!

 

[CrowinNT]

Luckily I checked the start time. 10:30 am for me. If I was in WA you would be watching just after breakfast. Seems weird. Anyway go Crows

 

[beartoo]

Mechanical problem with 2nd car--wife off with goodun--means I can't go.
I'll barrack loudly at the teev.
Go you good things!!!

Beat me to it. WTF is the go with that? Kids sport still on (cricket anyway).

Reckon it's so there's a Super Sunday with the AFLW/JLT matches on Fox Footy. Was the same yesterday with GWS and Freo starting at a similar time (and Brisbane Lions v Collingwood AFLW match on Fox Sports 3).
