Game Day Showdown XXXIX

[Scorpus]

Let's make Phil Walsh proud. #WeFlyAsOne

 

[1970crow]

Huge day for both clubs. Let's hope it's a belter. Bloody Holden Scramble, I'll miss the first quarter or so.

 

[FR0GGY]

Not sure what to think with this one.
Go us

 

[Red mist]

CARN THE CROWS!!!
Defence to hold tight.
Forward to expose their defence and Tex, Eddie to combine well.
Danger to dominate.
Sauce have a big one.
Smith to snag a long bomb.
Win by 21 to 30.

 

[Crow54]

I'm not confident of a win, just hope we don't get any major injuries.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Not sure what to think with this one.
Go us

Same.

A bit nervous. Wondering if we'll be on a massive emotional downer. Got up for last week and put in a semi competitive performance.

 

[hey shorty]

Super confident today, haven't been this confident against them in ages. Doesn't mean much I know but I reckon we have the scoring power to get it done.

Hard job but if we can shut down Wingard it goes a long way to winning the game.

 

[Roo Lives Again]

I was confident we'd win this one all week but feeling the opposite now. We've got too many of our good players out. Only way we'll win is if we play inspired football because of Phil. Really really hope they honour Phil properly and win.

Your not the only one with a few players out! Port board worried about today too, I don't think anybody knows how it will go today. Good luck football and to a great day. The rate of the AFL will be watching.

Who do we have to root to get some rain on a game day?

Not one ****ing game this year.

Not one ******* game this year.

Pretty sure the game against Melbourne was wet

That's right, I forgot about Bernie-gate.

Next week will piss down against the Gold Coast.

Showdowns always start 50/50 imo. They have historically been great contests.

 

[dblstR]

I think it's gonna be a weird feeling at the ground but it will return to normal midway through the first quarter.

Hoping for crows by anything, danger to win the medal.

 

[FantasticShirt]

Can't see us winning. They looked so depleted last week, hope to see them fight it out for the whole game though. No injuries please.

 

[JP Sauce]

Belt them Adelaide!

We can get back into the 8 and all but end their season today.

 

[maxlilly]

I have a good feeling about today.
I think the boys will be on a mission.
Our forward line will be strong, with the players out at the moment for Port.
And the power forward line not functioning very well.
Suns out, what a great day for footy
Go Crows

 

[mic59]

Off to the game now to evade the rush on the trains and have a bit of a bite before the March from the Mall. All Crows supporters welcome. Good luck for the game. RIP Phil.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Not one ******* game this year.

Other than the Fremantle game?

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

I have a feeling that we will win today. Got most of the emotion out of the way last week.

Backline taller this time to match port. Our forward line I think has the edge in their injured depleted backline. Just need to avoid a slow start & match mids as reckon we look better balanced on the outside.

Hold Gray, Hoff & wingard from having match winning games & we win.

 

[Redleg Crow]

So long as we get a good start. Can't stomach being down 4-5 goals after 15 minutes and losing again by less than that in the end.

Time for us to get a start and then keep it going.

 

[Redleg Crow]

It's a special day, and certainly has a different feel.

But...

Bugger talk that the result doesn't matter. This is Formula 1 football. Turn up to playing win, or don't turn up.

Team first, elite standards. Walsh didn't teach this team to be anything less.

 

[little graham]

Belt them Adelaide!

We can get back into the 8 and all but end their season today.

They'll be 3 games out if they lose.

It must be weird morning for their fans as well. Season on the line, the emotion of our former coach, not knowing what to expect from us.

Our reserves effort was possibly an ominous warning of how ruthless we'll be once we get into the game.

 

[pjcrows]

Start well FFS and we are a good chance today.

Not confident. I still feel weird.
