Preview Showdown 50- Why I Hate The Crows

[Marsh1870]

i have genuinely never seen anything that exemplifies the term "f***ing loser" more than this

Difference is, last year the fixture was changed prior to the game to a 17 game season and in doing so took away the Crows showdown, but left the only one for the year as our game.

We didn't give them our tickets, we just shared some because they weren't getting a showdown. The call for a 50/50 split of tickets was reasonable, but given we had ownership we denied that and looked after our fans. Which was good, fu** them.

So I'd expect they might do the same and give us a few, that'd be it, and that'd be fair. We've had our showdown and can't complain. This is their only home showdown in 2 years and with a far more limited capacity than what we got to have.

This all makes sense but the crows also got 10 games out 17 at AO last year compared to our 7, so missing out on a home showdown was definitely well compensated for.

Wonder if the crows will go out there like they did last time.

They didnt go to win, the set up they used and what not, they were just looking to not get blown away.
Right from the first 5 mins i knew we werent going to loose, but it was going to be an ugly game.

They’ll come with the ‘modern equivalent of’ biff and try to get as many Port players suspended as possible.

Apparently it arose from a misspelling. It's more derivative nonsense from them, because we are known as the "Pear", they also had to get some variation on their name just to keep up with Ports. Again.

Some Rhonda misspelled Crows, a new meme was born and appropriated.

Ah damn here i was thinking 'crom' was created as a joke from Borat just searched it and different spelling

Khram - male genitalia. (Probably from the Russian slang word "хрен" ["khrien"], of the same meaning). Used to refer to the scrotum or testicles, as well as the penis.

Any tickets available for Port members? Or is at sma/crows only show?

Pete Ladhams obviously knew about the anniversary, because he did his best to recreate the incident on Sunday night.

ok so for a long time now, this is my understanding, it's been funny online to hone in on small mistakes like spelling errors. like if you accidentally end something with "thank" instead of "thanks" people will repeat it and mock it. that is what they've done, somewhere someone accidentally typed "go crom" and they've ran with it a million miles an hour to try and make it one of those funny internet joke things, but it's so utterly forced that it's just painful every time they try to use it.

Skimming through that, I had completely forgotten that that random Glenelg missed a set shot from point-blank range, which would’ve blown the margin out to 25 immediately before Browny’s gutrunning wrong’un.

Talk about a cataclysmic sliding doors given all that transpired in the hours and years thereafter.
