Review R9: The Good, Bad and the Ugly vs. Port Adelaide

[jo172]

Winning away showdowns are never bad.

The ugliness is their beauty.

**** them. I hope they fold

 

[WetCrow1991]

Good: Win
Bad: Midfield
Ugly: Coach

 

[NTRabbit]

Every metric says we should have lost, except for two - Port couldn't kick straight at goal, and they couldn't stop turning the ball over.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

This game had Douglas crashing into McGovern vibes

 

[Danger in Texas]

Never begrudge a Showdown win. But Cripes. We’ll need to be better than that next week

Do agree with this, we’ll have to improve big time. Pies are flying

 

[Mattrox]

Never begrudge a Showdown win. But Cripes. We’ll need to be better than that next week

We are never winning next week. We have "Collingwood at MCG tax" to pay in the way of free kicks.

We won't get a set shot free inside 50m and Pies will get a handfull.

 

[Slippery Pete]

Good:
Showdown win
Ahead in the ledger

And that’s about it.

Anyone at the club satisfied with that performance tonight should have their head held down the f*cking toilet.

 

[Pilchard_Adams]

Is it Leo Keane or Mark Barry?

 

[Drummond]

Seven disposals

Outside of his 2 goals he was invisible tonight. Couldn’t get near it.

 

[Geoffa32]

WTF was Laird thinking late pushing the ball out into free space in Port's forward line.

And then to scoop it up.

 

[xFuzZBaLL]

Why are they putting one of our star forwards (Rankine) in the midfield anyway? Put him where he belongs.

 

[Betts are off]

ANB with probably the least effective tag in AFL history in the first half

 

[Slippery Pete]

Outside of his 2 goals he was invisible tonight. Couldn’t get near it.

Quick to give it to the crowd though.

Never before has a Crows player had an ego so out of step with his achievements.

 

[Geoffa32]

Seven disposals

No midfield time.
When we needed a spark in there, he should have been given a run.


Tonight's game truly highlights how badly we are coached....

 

[Maddogmetro]

Despite the on field slip ups, Keane seems like a really nice bloke.

 

[Danger in Texas]

ANB with probably the least effective tag in AFL history in the first half

Weird that ‘no fitness’ Taylor was better in the second half

 

[KingChowder]

Love the interview by Keane haha

 

[pjcrows]

Nicks is not the coach to take us forward. If we make finals, it's in spite of him, not because of him.

Correct.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Unpopular opinion: ROB was good

But he obviously should’ve been good on a young guy like Visentini

 

[crowholder]

Good: we won a close one at last, in the real season, not like against Brissie in the off season.

 

[whattagun07]

paused kayo after the finlayson goal
took the rubbish out, took a leak, twiddled my thumbs, then checked the final score before watching the last 90 seconds.
what an absolute butchering of a last qtr lead.
thank f*** we got over the line.

 

[cm_perfect]

Will take any type of showdown win!!

Filthy or Bitters for the medal.

Rozee smozee pffft.

 

[Crows I Am]

WTF was Laird thinking late pushing the ball out into free space in Port's forward line.

And then to scoop it up.

And the late push to give away the 50 early in the game. Two massive brain fades

 

[Shuestar13]

Shutting the game down is good, but just went way too early

A wins a win, you didn’t let them a*** their way to a miracle.

Defence is looking a lot better now.

Midfield smacked though. Bring in Sid.

 

[andidas]

Good: Defence, TT
Bad: Senior player brain fade 50s
Ugly: Matty Nicks. Bust the game open with 17 mins to go, then go long down the line for the remainder of the game. Also you go from using Dawson last week all over the ground, to just doing absolutely nothing while he gets tagged out of the game.
