The diving thread

[chazwazza]

Lol you're such a whinger. 1 supposed act of playing for a free and now he has the reputation? Man you've got some serious issues.
Almost all the free kicks pointed out above are actually frees, as soft as some were they were free kicks.
Eye gouging? There is no proof and crows fans will just go with it anyway. Piss off riley knight get off him.
It's about time though that you added this sort of aggression to your play but when you do it, especially when it's not natural you're going to give away free kicks.
Don't complain about it if you want to be seen as a tough side. Playing on the edge and this is what happens.
Still can't believe we only had 2 free kicks at quarter time, should've been more!

However, if you're going to accuse me of going on about eye gouging well ummm........

Crows will choke when the real pressure comes, like they always do!

Probably but we won't cheat whilst doing so. Danger and Selwood turning footy into soccer. Embarrassing.

Whinging about frees when you were slaughtered at the contest?

hahaha OK... convince yourself of that so you have an excuse when we beat you guys in a final!

Crows won't cheat? Lol you've been known for it in the past with salary cap breaches.
You won the flag off the back of bad umpiring in the '97 semi final..... andddd the prelim!
You can complain about free kicks in home and away games all you like, but you should hand that flag back.
Hopefully we beat you in a final with some favourable umpiring so you know what it's like.
Danger is known for diving and the crows are known as cheats

I do wonder what will come of the Selwood incident. A week?

It's fun watching people trying to defend this.

It's fun watching people trying to defend this.

It's even more fun reading all the flog Adelaide fans whinge over it for two days like they have some sort of moral high ground!

 

[Whiskers]

What are we defending? Just so I'm clear.

 

[JVseven]

That when the heat is on your 'star' players duck, dive and play for frees.

Do you think Geelong handle the pressure well or something?
What's our recent finals record like?

 

[firefighter]

well ummm........

Nice photos, can actually see Joels fingers deep in the eye sockets of that tool. So deep I can't even see his hand.

What's our recent finals record like?

You can stop pretending now.

Apart from 2011, under Chris Scott no we haven't and we won't with lazy players like Motlop in the team.

Of course apart from 2011, we had bloody legends of the game that year.
My dog could have coached that team and won the flag.

Motlop isn't lazy. He's just a soft pea heart who should have chosen soccer as his sporting career path.

We should have sacked Motlop after last seasons prelim he was pathetic that night!

So how many weeks do you think the MRP will give him?

 

[adelaidecrows]

Aside from Dangerwood, Geelongs side is poo. Crows prooved that if you shut down the influence of those two they turn to rabble. Both Danderfield and Selwood are well respected tough players but it does prompt the question as to why they took to diving and playing for frees when they are good enough to win the contest. Selwood does drop his knees and shoulders in tackles to get head high frees too often.

 

[chazwazza]

Whatever you choose not to see.
Anyway we'll see what the MRP think about it. It's all that matters in the end.

That tool wrestling with Joel? Maybe 2.

Geelong beat you at home by 22, You beat Geelong at home by 21 yet Geelong are poo. Weirdo!!!

 

[adelaidecrows]

We were badly out of form when we played in Geelong. It was uncharacteristically soft from us. It was a high quality game at AO but its hard to argue that Geelong is capable of winning without Danger and Selwood dominating. Still it was just one game. See you in finals.

 

[firefighter]

Fair enough, any excuse is a good one especially if you're the one making it. BWAHAHAHAHAHA......

The week before Adelaide smashed Flagless Freo by 100 points at home, and the Lions by 80 the week before that. The week after the Geelong game you beat Saints by 57. Be off with your BS..

Settle I know you are disappointed. Thanks for 2007.

I'm with the cats fans here - can't see the problem in those photos and didn't see much of the game.

What's it supposed to show?

A possible explanation as to why Knight retaliated as he did.
