Game Day Round 6 Adelaide v GWS - Make or break time

[pjcrows]

We know a lot about Nicks, but today's game will tell us everything we need to know. I'd like to think that he knows it, too.

If a 5-day break after a hot Gold Coast game went against us, then there's no excuses if we can't get over a Hogan-less GWS at home after a 9-day break.

Make or break time.

Can’t see us winning but stranger things have happened

80% chance of rain and we're playing 4 tall forwards. Our players wouldnt have even trained in rain for 12 months at this stage a well.

Its that sort of a weekend

Agree. We will find out a lot today about where we are really at against very good opposition!

 

[John Who]

I’d like to add a sprinkle of positivity..

We have Murray back, and the defense looks elevated in an instant. It should at least stem the bleeding if the opposition gets on some momentum.

We’ve had some good rest, so will surely play better in the last quarter than the shit show that was last week’s last quarter. Surely? Or at least the bare minimum, hopefully highly probable?

If Port surprised everyone that they can beat the Hawks then so can we!

Ok, that’s all I got. Crows by 2 goals.

 

[GreyCrow]

Looking forward to this one

I have tipped GWS - 1st time in a while I have felt we arent good enough - but happy to get it wrong

I think we are falling back into circling the wagons and deja vu is kicking in

Having Hogan out helps

Will look on with interest in this

Looks like Curtin up the ground today, onto Sholl's wing

I wonder if Rankine spends more time forward today?

 

[Greenfinger]

Some good changes . Curtin on the wing and Murray back in particular. I’m not sure if it’s worth continuing to persist with Berry after 57 games . Would have preferred Dowling but hoping Sam goes well.

Would make sense with both Crouch and Berry in the team. You'd assume those guys are mostly in the middle when on the field. Assume that if Taylor is not the sub he plays forward as well a good amount of the time in the Rachele role. The trade-off is Curtin plays less up forward, and maybe we sub off a forward if needed.

Will he though, we brought Murray back without dropping anyone from the back 7. Reckon that's where most of the wing is covered from.

Is this the game where plan A just gets over the line?
If GWS have the gather round sniffles it might be.

Either Nankervis or Curtin sub I guess

 

[FR0GGY]

Either Nankervis or Curtin sub I guess

Surely it’s Berry

 

[1970crow]

Either Nankervis or Curtin sub I guess

I'd have thought Berry or Draper.

 

[Scorpus]

Should be a close game. I'm tipping the Crows narrowly

 

[Cromulant]

Have to bounce back this arvo IMO.

They played in the blazing heat 6 days ago, and are without the best forward in the game..... no excuses.

 

[Mutineer]

Draper I think will likely be the sub.

I think we need Berry's strong body in the midfield mix against Green and Callaghan.

ROB watch today
It's going to be interesting to see if he can step it up against Briggs

There’s actually very little rain forecast during the game, it’s meant to come down just after the game finishes.
It will be quite hot and humid.

Surely we play Nank on the wing. Happy for Curtin to have some time there but playing Nankervis full time on the wing in the 2’s and not giving him a run there when Sholl isn’t playing just seems crazy.

I was a couple of days ago

In the end I managed to download it and transfer it to my wallet, noticed it had been moved to expired vouchers the next day

Downloaded it again and it's still there now

 

[BunjiMC]

Hogan out and Murray in.

Crows by 23

Keays with 5
