Game Day Round 2, 2017: Adelaide vs Hawthorn: (live thread SPOILERS)

[Kane McGoodwin]

Vickery probably had a worse game than injured Jenkins.

Gather Sanders is still in denial believing Vickery is a decent player lol. Not even Clarkson can work miracles.

I think it's impossible to unRichmond a player!

Normally, but Jason Torney was an exception.

Ottens went ok with cats too.

 

[mistylake]

Can't agree. First game 21 disposals and two goals.

Probably a bit better than I realised.
I remember some of his disposals were lazy misfires though.

 

[mistylake]

Tex was horrific for the first half.

Worked his way back into it more as the game went on but really needed him to stand up earlier than he did.

Absolutely needs to get kicking into the man in the mark out of his game, does it at least once a match.

Fixed that for you.

Ottens was pretty fair as well

I wonder if the umpires will be sent back to the VFL for a bad performance, or for failing to get Hawthorn over the line.

Doesn't changing this thread name spoil the delayed thread?

In my excitement, i forgot that there was a delayed thread!

My apologies!

Don out coached Clarke today, after qtr time Pyke went to PLAN B which delivered the result

Great Coaching

Don't like how long it took for Pyke to react, believe it wasnt until halfway through the 2nd until the tide started to turn.

I didn'tlike that they had plus 2 in our F50 and we kept kicking to a 2-1 contest. Remember at one stage we had 4 defenders agaist 2 hawks between the square and 50 arc, yet the ball was around our f50.

We won't always get this result if our coach takes too long to change things up.

Anyway we won so I wont be too critical.......this time.

There's a word in the English language mate it's called positivity.

The bloke's a fair dinkum campaigner, hand wringer extraordinaire, should be banned from posting in game day threads, some of his comments re Tex are embarrassing.

 

[Bicks]

Of course he was. Massive number of score involvements.

Some of the comments re Tex in this thread are downright cringeworthy.

 

[Cleric]

I think you'll be happier with his improvement through the game.

I hope he wins the norm Smith in a premiership team. But today was far from his best. Was missing when the heat was on in the first. Then when the sting went out he had a mid range game.

Bicks just flick your finger over the negative posters without even reading. Dont need to ignore when you can just flick straight past them..

 

[Bicks]

We won while not playing our best. A sign of a mature team. Gov, Mackay, Sloane, Jacobs, Cameron our best.

Must have mistaken someone else for Tom Lynch???

 

[Bicks]

ROB in.

Sauce up forward.

Otten up Forward, Lever down back, Wigg in for Milera.

I think it took the rest of the 1st term for the team to adjust the shuffle due to JJ's injury.

Why would we drop Milera?

is he injured?

 

[Bicks]

There's the Hendo we know.

The way the ball came in Brown always had the drop on Hendo.....I really don't know what you think Hendo could have done different without giving away a free.

 

[Bicks]

He is way too soft at the contested ball, brushed off way too easily, very poor defensively both weeks.

Hendo also had another player to defend, so had to react to who we kicked to, before trying to compete.

Tex had a good game. 20 possies, 2 goals. Some of his 1%ers were sublime.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

For those at the game, what was the rough crowd split?

Seemed like massive cheers when we got a goal

 

[bj79]

I don't post much but feel like I need to today. Proud of the boys. Some mistakes early but our young brigade are awesome. Pace through the midfield makes such a difference. Enjoy it guys. I was fairly pessimistic at the start of the season but some good signs. I love my crows.

 

[ams4crows]

Tex is playing as a classic CHF! if your CHF is getting 20 disposals and kicking 2 goals a game that's bloody Elite!!

This isn't the 90's anymore where CHF kicks 5 goals a game every game.
