2016 Non-Crows AFL Discussion - Cont. in Part 2 (link in OP)

[CrowsB4hoes]

Kane Cornes. "No Hombsch and Ryder probably the difference".

Ryder. Hasn't played a game all season and they knew it 6 months ago. But he's the difference. Classic.

No Murphy, Wood, Johannison and Dahlhaus during the game the only reason Port got a sniff.

 

[matty p]

Has Cornes forgot that Murphy, Stevens, Wood and Johannisen were all out for the WB and that the Dalhouse was injured early in today's game

Not to mention their best key defender Adams was a late withdrawal before the game. The Bulldogs were literally missing 4 of their back 6 and still won.

 

[footy4ever]

Kane toad cornes boo hoo boo hoo wait until ryder hombsch yadayadayada boo hoo waaaaaaaaaaaah

So brave. LOL

 

[fabs33]

Now they can play the kids

Pity they traded all those picks in recent years...

 

[Crowked]

At least Schulz is set to return after the bye.

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

 

[rezagun]

Caleb Daniel was massive. So composed. Controlled the play in the last every time he had the ball. Forced players ahead to go to the right places by kicking there before the leads came. This guy is as good in traffic as any I've seen.

Has sam mitchell written all over him.

 

[Archie87]

So never being outmarked is the benchmark for a forward playing well? So i guess that means that previous to this year, Talia was actually being beaten despite often keeping his opponents to two goals or less; and by extension he's only playing well now that he is regularly outmarking his opponent?

 

[Anzacpaul]

Yeah over Cornes using no Ryder and Hombsch as an excuse.

 

[Pdub]

Port needs a new catchphrase "Excuses win premierships... we hope"

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

No Murphy, Wood, Johannison and Dahlhaus during the game the only reason Port got a sniff.

And no Koby Stevens

 

[Glenno23]

Port's recruiting is hurting them at present

Ryder not available, Dixon plays 1 good game in 3 if lucky, Polec's form is awful and Toumpas can't make the side

What a destination club! So many great players they have got from other clubs. Great recruiting team at Port!

Sucks that we're stuck with spuds like Jacobs, Betts, Lynch and Jenkins from other clubs

Yep, no McLeod and ricciuto in the guts for us atm is also hurting our chances...what are the odds... #woeisAFC #amidoingitright

Yep. Last two weeks it's been "it's not what Charlie does, it's how he brings the other forwards into it" and this week it's "at least his defender doesn't mark it."

He is the Invisible Man of footy.

 

[Pdub]

Anyone got the Sando vs Ken stats handy?

 

[arrowman]

Yet according to Rooch they have more members.

Why don't they turn up?

Perhaps they don't have hardened supporters like us...

They knit a lot, they make a mean apricot slice-
And they're tough and loyal old birds.

Butcher was getting that far.

 

[SpeciousArgument]

the best thing to have come out of the essendon saga has been ports massive ryder screwup

Especially those who "picked" Port: Dixon, Toumpass, Polec - and don't forget Crazy Vossy.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Port got less today on a perfect afternoon than us last week on a cold, windy Sunday twilight match. ****ing lol.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

If we had Ryder...

If we did this... If we did that. **** they're hilarious. Some even complaining about not having Lobbe desptie the fact he was dropped

 

[SpeciousArgument]

The funny thing is having the blue rinse members is actually a good thing, its shows a season ticket is actually worth something and people hold onto them.

What was the crowd?

it doesn't matter that the Bulldogs had three of their most important running defenders out

 

[Elite Crow]

Just over 40k I think
