Game Day Showdown 45

[pastmyprimus]

Who would have thought. Farrell's kicked 3 more goals than Eddie

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I like DBJ playing higher up the ground, decent kick and some footy smarts as well.

Fitness after a tough game last week might be an issue.

They played Melbourne who are a physical team.

 

[Rising Power]

I'd like to see zero OOTF and zero blind panic kicks direct to the opposition for the rest of the game from our boys. Stupid turnovers keeping them in it.

 

[NickFlips]

Has any team ever had more punchable heads than this current Crows team?

Every past Crows team?

 

[Enviable Tradition]

If we can limit their scoring this quarter its ours with the breeze in the last.

Crows very fortunate there was rain in the 2nd.

Nah I want to bury them in the 3rd.
Run, run, run!

They have had 36 inside 50 to our 26 and they have taken 9 marks inside 50 to our 3.

We have to shut that down. Lucky a few of their set shots were shockers. If they keep getting that many marks inside 50 and kick straight we are in trouble.

 

[Killer Power]

We need to control Jenkins. Perhaps Jonas!

 

[Nihilus]

we need to continue with the goals . an there 3 - 5

 

[Ford Fairlane]

finbarr Ratkins has grown a beard of sorts and it made his chin even less obvious. It's like he has no lower jaw.

 

[tribey]

Sloane 17 & 2 at the half.

What is it about us not implementing the hard tag on him that everyone else has success with?

No

They're all getting good delivery though, feels like a robbing Peter situation.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Wow, Hombsch. I've never seen anything like that first half.

Bonner. Any chance of actually wanting to be out there instead of daydreaming about getting easy, uncontested ball?

Those two are keeping Adelaide in this. Putrid.

Apart from those guys I think we have looked really good for the most. Need to be slightly more aware when feeding off to runners through the half back line but apart from that we have looked sharp and dangerous IMO.

Yeah, Hombsch and Bonner are a worry. On the plus side, Pittard doing really well on Betts.

 

[pastmyprimus]

Bonner's defensive game needs a lot more work. If that doesn't improve his penetrating kick won't save him

 

[chiwigi]

Yeh I was offered 2 free tickets for the game and sit amongst them..........I passed.

I’ll travel to Sydney to watch Port play, but I wont walk down the road for a Crows showdown, such a bunch of campaigners.
It seems much worse at AO, I reckon because I feel like it’s OUR ground they are in, whereas it didn’t feel that way at West Lakes.

Eddie can kick 4 in a quarter. Let's keep a lid on it. Great start by the kid though. Sam Gray won't be back.

Really? They're a bunch if theatregoers who gives a shit.. ? There's nothing better than winning a away showdown.

 

[MrMeaner]

Our defence has been a bit of an issue. Giving up too many marks.

 

[Contested Marx]

My nerves

My heart

If I don't make it through this game just know I love you all







Except 66 & PB

Yep - as much as we have looked efficient offensively, our team defence is badly down today. This applies from the deep forward line where we haven’t been able to lock the ball in, to the middle of the ground where we’ve allowed them free short kicking possession, to the forward line where their leading has been largely undefended.

If we don’t tighten up here, they might start to capitalise.

 

[finbarr]

How’s when Ricciuto said Wingard took a dive....

Shut up dickhead.

 

[PAFC66]

I'd leave it. Jonas is more of a threat when he's chopping off inside 50s and helping out 2:1

 

[Steve Dore]

I like how everyone assumed Tex would kick that because he always does against us lol

I certainly expected him to kick it.

 

[PAFC66]

Shut up dickhead.

And Healey corrects him saying it was a clear push in the back.. loser.

Ebert’s been bloody disappointing this year. I’d try Rockliff on him. Take Sloane out of this and it will make a huge difference.
