Review R3: The Good, Bad and Ugly vs. North Melbourne

[suburpy]

Yeah go Kayo - don't have to hear BT anymore. And I now go for the Parramatta Eels - digitally :-0

 

[Rotayjay]

2025 = 2016?

2026 = 2017?

 

[Bearded Clam]

Good

Peatling
Tex
Ranks
Laird
Tt
Fog
Draper
Curtin
Hinge

Dirty day

Dawson

Pathetic

Milera - just a weak defender

Sholl - learn how to tackle you soft coxk.. just hopeless all day with the softest tackle attempts you’ll ever see. Total liability

ROB - you arent a talented footballer and you arent a midfielder once the ball gets on the ground.. you need to get out of the talented guys way..

And our seniors like laird and keays need to stop calling for the footy when the player that has it is a better decision maker, is in a better position and has more talent.

The maaggot umpires.

Actually credit to O'Brien I thought he beat Xerri at the very least was even with him today and that's a player who dominated Gawn last week.

Worrell Max and Hinge were excellent.

Thilthorpe was superb as was Tex and even Curtin played a great Game

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Milera looks slow to me. Would make sense that he's lost some pace through repeated injuries. It's not an excuse for not going when it's your turn though.

Ugly - Brian Taylor's obvious disdain of the Crows. And more importantly, our supporters.

Eat a big bag of doodles you campaigner.

He’s an a grade campaigner

 

[Geoffa32]

Great to see Dawson have an ordinary gane, yet we still beat a side close to our level.

We don't rely on individual ability to win games.

 

[Dewy006]

Strange game from Fog, feels like playing on an undersized opponent he thought he would just be able to out muscle him so stopped working hard and offering hitups, the things in which he has been so good at in the first two weeks

 

[SugarShane]

GC have a higher percentage. Played 1 less game too. Probs would’ve stomped Essendon at home if their game wasn’t cancelled, so likely would still be in 2nd regardless.

Ah shit. Didn't even notice that. What a stitch up.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Strange game from Fog, feels like playing on an undersized opponent he thought he would just be able to out muscle him so stopped working hard and offering hitups, the things in which he has been so good at in the first two weeks

He looked exhausted at times.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Peatling - Best game for the club and showed moments of why he was hotly chased by 6 clubs
Curtin - A Dawson lite game today, kicking goals, marks in defence/wing and applying great pressure
Soligo - Started the year strongly, going at 28 disposals and a goal a game, some elite kicks
Rankine - 30 disposals, 8 clearances and some of the cleanest passes you'll see in the comp
TT - Just a beast, just as dangerous as a mid as he is a forward
Tex - Shaky start but great from the second qtr onwards
Worrell - Might be a sneaky AA chance so good to see him starting to truly shine
Hinge - Such a pivotal part of our defensive structures and rebounding

Quieter games from Dawson and especially Crouch but well accounted for by Soligo, Rankine and Peatling, big step forward for our future.

Love it. Exactly my thoughts <3

 

[jbanger]

Curtin, Peatling & ANB all had their best games for the Crows. Sid's 2 goals the icing on the cake for mine. I rated Keane's evener upperer in the last qtr on that flog who kept on getting gifted frees in front of goal. Also loved Soli getting stuck in to the NM players after he goaled in the 4th.

Ugly - inconsistent umpiring (non) decisions.

 

[SugarShane]

Yeah go Kayo - don't have to hear BT anymore. And I now go for the Parramatta Eels - digitally :-0

I don't pay for Kayo, I pay to avoid Channel 7 and Kayo wins by default.

 

[Geoffa32]

Tough game for our backline, yet they were superb.

Such a tight unit, and don't panic under pressure.

Credit to Laird. Preseasin he looked past it. But last two games has really shown why he was an AA defender.


Milera, the weak link here.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Ugly - Brian Taylor's obvious disdain of the Crows. And more importantly, our supporters.

Eat a big bag of doodles you campaigner.

What did he say?

 

[rubbers0ul]

Will finish the round in 2nd. Would be well clear in 1st on percentage if the Hawks didn't have an extra game.

thanks to dills and kane opening round - the ladder is irrelevant this year

 

[rocket18]

Good:
Hinge
Max
Peatling
TT
Soligo

Bad:
Sholl
Borlase
Keane
ROB
Milera


Disappointing: (but not surprised)

Draper only got one CBA, ideal game to get him in the guts with Dawson/Rankine/Crouch all down and/or tagged.
Our coach is still our biggest impediment.

 

[hippyhippy]

ROB - you arent a talented footballer and you arent a midfielder once the ball gets on the ground.. you need to get out of the talented guys way..

I thought Rob competed hard. He wasn't beaten today imho

 

[Geoffa32]

The goal Tex kicked from Ruck, Southern End was clever.


Norf Ruck did not want to engage physically. Instead looked to want to come in late and tap without contact


Tex engages as the ball is in the hit box. Taking that advantage away. Outbodies and wins posession.



It was smart Footy.

 

[FR0GGY]

Well played Crows, too slick for us.

1 question. Is that a really stupid time to schedule a game at AO ? Really hard to watch on the telly, players at the grandstand end having trouble all game with the sun. And the red ball ? Difficult to pick up as well.

Must be just the time of day as it’s no different at the MCG, horrible to watch
During the afternoon

 

[ams4crows]

Bad Crows NGA lad Dudley already kicked 2 goals in debut for Freo and we never gave him a chance.

Should get an extra rookie list spot for an NGA rookie.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

TEX how can you not love him? 4 goals, 6 shots. Not bad for a washed up hack!

 

[FR0GGY]

He looked exhausted at times.

He got pushed into a marking contest and was in the hands of the trainers for a while

 

[FR0GGY]

Finn O'Sullivan looks the goods
