Review Showdown 49 - Rd 8, 2021

[Marmozet]

We win Showdown 49 by 49 points!

Not the most entertaining Showdown. One team was playing to lose by as little as possible.

Boak is now a 3x Showdown medalist and we now lead the ledger again. 25-24.

All I want is a .gif of Jonas pushing over Rowe like he was a small child.

 

[Visenfest]

Well. My arms are firmly folded. We won as expected, but that was not a good performance at all.

Trivia question for future years - who kicked 5 goals in Showdowns 48 and 49? Adelaide.

 

[Mr Experience]

Solid win in the end, got it done, onto next week.

 

[ROBBBO]

So easy

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Four points is four points.

Thought we handled their intensity fairly well so happy with it.

Yet again its downhill skiing though. Must beat the dogs next week to get back that respect.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Meh

Lycett was robbed of the medal. Good solid win. Lots of slippery ball mistakes but aside from that, all good.

 

[Marmozet]

They dragged us down to their level.

They weren’t playing to win. They were in damage control the whole night

The Ted Walker we know and love was back tonight

Well. My arms are firmly folded. We won as expected, but that was not a good performance at all.

Na I don't buy that. Adelaide aren't as s**t this year and they were not easy conditions. To come out with a 50 point win what more can you expect. Adelaide literally played to keep the damage as low as possible. that was a B+ performance, better goal kicking would have lifted it to an A.

THEY PUT ON THE BARS FOR THE CLUB SONG!!!

 

[Chokito]

Medal should have gone to Clurey

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

Fantasia is at John Butcher levels of accuracy at this point.
Annoying to lose Lycett, but arguably he is our most replaceable player. Handy having the best and second best Ruckman in the sanfl who are ready to go.

 

[GremioPower]

It started with "Never Tears Us Apart":




It ended with "Easy":

 

[snozulu]

I thought Clurey was fantastic tomight

 

[Winganeen]

Flat track out there tonight, need to fire up for Footscray.

Would love Farrell to come away thinking that wasn't enough, anything short of Brownlow votes shouldn't be enough, good game just want to see more.

[It Just Is]

Not a pretty game but high intensity throughout and in the end we won each of the 4 quarters comfortably. Can’t complain about that.

 

[GremioPower]

The Crows played the game of their lives. They gave their all for the entire match. They lost by 49 points.

Let's that sink in.

Macron Bars even has the MG logo nice and above the horizontal bar.

Jumper looks ******* great. * you AFL and Collingwood for the fact we can't get this.

Please start selling it
