Game Day Round 16: Carlton v Adelaide @ MCG: "Trading Places"

[Punchy Bassett]

Wayne swass says jenkins will be found out in september.

He'd know all about that

 

[Geoffa32]

Collingwood looked very good against GWS actually.

When they do travel they go allright.

 

[Glenno23]

Collingwood looked very good against GWS actually.

Since Walsh's passing, we have not lost to a bottom 10 team.....Just read that in Twitter. Look for that to continue this week

 

[pjcrows]

Confident we can beat Collingwood but once again it won't be the walkover it might've been 3 weeks ago. A good thing.

 

[Alwaysacrow]

Some of those flogs on the paps board really dislike Pyke. I guess they prefer a clueless coach like Hinckley! NFI!!!

At some point we'll open them up.

Doesn't really matter. Someone else in the fwd line will stand up. Any forward can have a quiet game and others take up the slack.

Doesn't Jenkins play better against the top 8 teams??

 

[GreyCrow]

Geez Armfield is a sketchy looking dude...

 

[Mattrox]

Doesn't Jenkins play better against the top 8 teams??

In finals he kicked 0 vs Bulldogs but 4 goals 1 vs Hawthorn in 2015.

He'll be fine in finals. If he's quiet in a particular game others step up.

 

[GreyCrow]

Seriously, I don't think there's a sight I enjoy in footy in 2016 more than Jenkins kicking goals from the square

We've even started yelling honk honk when it happens

He gave a thumbs up after his last one to the cheer squad

I'm talking in games this year I'm pretty sure he has snagged an 8 and a few 4 or 5's against top 8 teams

"Crows looking like they'll lose the unloseable. Their kicking and inside 50 entries are deplorable atm.

They opt for a perfect stream of 3-4 handballs around a pack before they want to kick it long to a target."

sad arse Paer flogs are sad arsed

How did that prediction work out for them. LOL EAD port flogs.

There's a few who will create a hindsight role. deeztreez , adelaidecrows , Tarasque36 . Even Vader will still argue that he's our most important inside mid.

Negative, I thought he was poor today.
Dont be a bitch and think that one statement equals truth for the year. Football is fluid.
As I was sitting in the stands there was multiple times he kicked instead of using the right handball opportunity.
Still, did you notice that we are using multiple centre options, not just him. Which was my point.

What's his new role again? Can't recall. We're you the link up guy, the on the deck feeding M Crouch guy, or the tagging guy?

So many new roles.

OK, as simply as I can....
Instead of being our number one rover (as in Jacobs tap to him all the time) we are using M Crouch, Lyons and Sloane to tap to.
So, there is a change in clearance structure. Still the same this week.
Therefore he is seen as link or bottom of pack as he is not number one target. Can you follow?

Swans play Hawks this week. Go Hawks!

Hawks are a game up on the Crows but have lower percentage by 12%. Swans have the same number of wins as Crows but have 6% better percentage.

So if the Crows win next week then either: (1) if Hawks beat Sydney the Crows would be a game ahead of Sydney, Hawks top spot and Crows second spot, or (2) if Sydney beat Hawks the Sydney go to top spot and Crows second spot ahead of Hawks on percentage.

Either way, as long as Crows beat Collingwood, Crows go to second spot.

If Sydney win by six points, ruffly how much do we have to beat collingwood by, to go top?

 

[ok.crows]

About 70 to 80. According to the ladder predictor, 60 points won't cut it, the Crows would still be 1.5% lower than Sydney.

This is very feasible.

Been thinking about "Joe the Goose".

We all honk at my house when we kick those goals ...

Surely we can sell "Joe the Goose" horns for everyone to honk at the game?
