The 2015 SANFL Crows thread.

[Sir Vlado]

Watching the reserves play borders on the depressing so much of the time. Here's something predictable again.

 

[spexau]

We've faded at the end of each quarter so far, and started pretty well in each instead.

Bit of wind going that way going by those flags on the opposite side of the ground too.

 

[Elite Crow]

Any chance Lowden can do something?

 

[jackster83]

The family club running away with it now.

Can we try Ramsey down back? He's not getting much of it up forward.

 

[Geoffa32]

Done well to hold on this long given the injury lists of both sides.

 

[Dandy_GO]

Lowden lacks intensity.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Knight seems to be having a strong first up game?

 

[NikkiNoo]

Neade has been to the lesson about throwing the head back. Ump on the wrong side.

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

this has turned to rubbish now.

 

[spexau]

Monfries mate

 

[MRB37]

I guess Jaensch is an option

Intensity dropped off in the last 5 mins or so. Port up by 5 now.

Still haven't used 1 for Otten either. It's been Reilly and Harry Dear who've been placed on the LTI so far.

 

[The19thMan]

I want O'Brien to play next week.

 

[jackster83]

Apart from Knight and Osborn, most of our AFL listed players have been pretty shit.

 

[spexau]

this has turned to rubbish now.

Yeah we've run out of gas. From a quick look we have 11 AFL listed players and they have 15 or 16 I think. And the vast majority of our AFL players are KPP or Rucks. Midfield just doesn't get enough of it.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

What role is Martin playing?

His numbers throughout the opening rounds seem well down on previous seasons

 

[Elite Crow]

Neade has been to the lesson about throwing the head back. Ump on the wrong side.

I reckon he is running the class, he's worse than Monfries.

 

[DD#23]

I've noticed this at AFL level as well, what's the status of the kicking in danger rule? Dead and buried?

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Yeah we've run out of gas. From a quick look we have 11 AFL listed players and they have 15 or 16 I think. And the vast majority of our AFL players are KPP or Rucks. Midfield just doesn't get enough of it.

Out of our 11 we have a few coming back from injury

 

[ManInTheArena]

Is Osborn playing forward? If he is, is this the first time he's done it permanently?

 

[Sir Vlado]

Laughing at that commentator seemingly shocked by how bad our average numbers are, well yeah, that's what you get when you're injury depleted and have to bring in top up players.

 

[spexau]

Is Osborn playing forward? If he is, is this the first time he's done it permanently?

Pretty sure he's always predominantly played forward.

 

[ManInTheArena]

I've noticed this at AFL level as well, what's the status of the kicking in danger rule? Dead and buried?

I think it was against the Bulldogs that I actually saw a player get kicked in the guts and it was play on. How is it not kicking in danger when the player gets kicked? It may be that it needs to be around the head but surely any kick to the person is dangerous.

 

[Sir Vlado]

I've noticed this at AFL level as well, what's the status of the kicking in danger rule? Dead and buried?

Makes an appearance maybe half a dozen times in a season? Then the general reaction is, 'oh, that rule'

 

[spexau]

Out of our 11 we have a few coming back from injury

Yeah looks like Magpies have 17 AFL listed players and they also have Summerton who's a very good SANFL player. We have 11 and a bunch of country lads.

 

[NikkiNoo]

What role is Martin playing?

His numbers throughout the opening rounds seem well down on previous seasons

Martin often is played as a loose man in defence as well as through the midfield and wings. He's Younie's Mr Fixit is my impression.
