Before the team announcement, First of the season game. FIRST KICK : Dawson FIRST HANDBALL : Soligo FIRST CLEARANCE : Dawson FIRST MARK : Fogarty FIRST GOAL : Fogarty So, yeah Rob taps to Soligo who roves a handpass to Dawson who hits Fog lace out, Fog converts from 45.

Me personally, I have zero concerns about DC. Pick him first and fit the magnets around him.

To paraphrase Deadpool.. "In my world you were an Arcade game, you were THE Arcade game!"

I'd imagine the AFL/Tassie team will pay through the nose for good administrative pieces to join the ranks in the next 12-24 months. So I suspect he will have a fairly big number in front of him to leave if he's #1 on that list.

Sunday is going to be great. Crowies first game of the season at Midday, and the Australian F1 at 2:30pm. And Im going to a 5th birthday party that my son was invited to at timezone for all of it.... FML, they better have Daytona or i'll lose my mind!

I am fairly lenient to him as it was his 2nd game and Merrett is a brilliant burst type player. Holding him down in the first half is still a win IMO. Not disputing he got on top of him, but wouldn't mind watching a rematch between the 2

He also did a pretty decent negating job on Zach Merrett last year, from memory his 1st 1/2 was particularly good before Merrett got off the leash a bit. Personally I think that shut down ability would be handy almost every week. And not just in the back line. It's a role he can make his own

My prediction is Bond will get a spot in the first 6 weeks. And then not give it back.

Hence why we got Balme right? And Murray.

Stage 6: Is 10am too early for a beer?

I think when Draper gets his midfield minutes this year we are going to see his frenetic energy / burst be both his 1 wood and his biggest source of errors. He'll look like he's shot out of a cannon compared to what we've been use to for the last decade and a half, which will be awesome. But I...

Yep, TBH its probably as bad as its been now. The SANFL highlights packs were good for a while, then they seemed to just be set shots for about a year and a half, and last year they dropped the SANFL highlights all together. The fun video segments with players all seemed to stop. With the...

Mate, for a club that has its own media department, we get shockingly little in terms of Preseason info in SA as well. I follow the NFL and there are probably 50 podcasts and dedicated news outlets/reporters per team. All doing daily reports, news articles, rumours, and practice statistics. You...

I think the big point of difference with us now is Midfield legspeed. And it always felt like Essendon's quick mids use to dine out on our slow midfield. I am actually looking forward to that game. Hopefully see Draper, Rankine and Peatling return the serve against them.

I think the wrong question is being asked about Curtin. People are worried and want to know "where does he play" in the context of the full season. For me the question should be, "who does he exploit" and the context should be against each opponent. We need to stop thinking he needs a role for...

Should this thread change its name to 2025 Rumours and Spec. Or should we just go back to "Tales of the Henley Beach Cafe 2025"

Did anyone else just get an offer for a Crows digital pass? Their package at $58.33/month looks eerily similar to what Kayo gives me for $25/month. What am I missing? Are the games telecast in WonkaVision or something

It's a pretty nice situation to be in that our biggest selection drama is which of the last 2 years 1st round draft picks will likely be sub. Having said that I hope the answer is none and both are in the 22.

Has anyone done a super cut of Draper's game?

It's also not like the Lions players weren't having a shot at winning the game late either. I dont think any team athlete would react much differently. They are competitive beasts

No sure if its been mentioned, but I actually think this week is a lost opportunity not giving McAndrew a run against the Big O. Oscar is one of those ruckman that ROB seems to get owned by. An ultra tall, long armed player with a huge reach and enough of a jump to consistently reach over the...

Team accolades are not relevant in a school yard feud.

If Brodie Smith can get another season based off his 2024, then I'm definately not ruling Tex out from getting another season in 2026. I'm not putting money on it, but i'm also not putting money against it!

I hope he ends his career on 301 games. Just to stick it to Cornes forever

Me walking into the Bigman thread during the offseason without a Bigman practice report for 4 days; The same posters on the day of 1st actual Crows game to watch against another team in 5+ months...

Riley Thilthorpe is also on my list of players who are always worth keeping an eye on. This season I want him to turn those game changing quarters that he has shown he can have, into game wrecking halves, and beyond.

I know right. Why would you bother even being a member of a sports related team forum and slog through the 5 months of football-less offseason nonsense in here. And then when there's actually footy to consume (not just bigman reports), they all of a sudden have no interest.... I guess it's 1...

I'm just here for Dan Curtin #dancurtinfanclub Looking forward to seeing who they match up on him.

Your classic Russian doll of complaints

I feel like I should remember this, but what is Strachans actually injury? He's essentially missed the entire preseason now right? For a dude who is playing for a list spot, he's coming from a long way back.
