Oh shit, Vlahuss is back again.

Also while the margins may have been identical, only 1 side had their finals won in the first quarter and it wasn't Richmond.

I think it's relevant that they beat the same teams we did by similar margins. I was on to that straight away when everyone was saying how we would smash Richmond.


Claiming we had Geelong beat after qtr time is delusional as well. They dominated in the 2nd qtr for periods where we couldn't get a centre clearance. We put Charlie Cameron coming in from the back of the square to settle things down and it worked well and we started halving contests. But they definitely had some momentum going. Geelong players felt the same and said they went in to half time with some hope as they felt they were starting to get on top and thought they were a genuine chance of working back in to it.

Our ability to play 4 qtrs got us through that match. It certainly wasn't over at qtr time.

Stop making a knob of yourself and showing you ignorance ad the ignorance of a lot of AFC members that kno nothing about any other club except our own. And come to some weird conclusions like Charlie Cameron should of been dropped, otten is to slow, and hartigan and brown are good under pressure lol.

Let's be honest, you would probably still have Neil Craig coaching and van berlo as captain with tex drinking in the stands if you had your way like a majority of crows supporters at the time.

Richmond by 5 points. Cotchin for nom smith.

The main board to go into meltdown

The "does AFL manufacture narratives" thread explodes

New trending tag will be "free kick Richmond"despite only getting one forget free the whole day.

"Worst flag side in history" threads are created

You guys seriously like to be selective with your stats don't you.

It was 2 points, 2 rounds and 18% ahead in the H&A.

Also while the margins may have been identical, only 1 side had their finals won in the first quarter and it wasn't Richmond.

Grasping at straws here.

We were 31 points up at quarter time, 35 up at half time, 35 up at 3/4 time and 61 up at full time.

To say it wasn't won in the first quarter is just ignoring reality.

Our half time score was only 2 points less than their full time score.

The Adelaide Crows take on Richmond in a "Battle Royal" at the MCG. This is another of my Crows Fan videos to fire the fans up for the game. Note: No Richmond supporters were hurt in the making of this video


Crows to win, don't care by how much. Just hoping for a good contest, fair umpiring, and no injuries to either side. Crows by 18 points.

I have been pretty level headed to this point. I can appreciate and respect that dusty will probably carve us up for 5 or 10 minute periods, I can respect that. The one thing that will make me lose it is Richmond getting free kick after free kick and us getting nothing. Hopefully it's a non issue.

To say Geelong could not have come back from that is ignoring reality.. they didn't but they could have.

And people say we get ahead of ourselves lol

Yep. Doesn't change the fact they were getting on top in the middle and winning centre clearances and slowed the crows momentum to only lose the qtr by 4 points. It wasn't over.

Is it raining in the CBD? It's pissing down out in the South-East of Melbourne.

 

[Mogwai]

I haven't broken out into a smile today or even felt like saying more than 3 words at a time.
The nerves are giving me a right jolt and even though I'm dressed and ready I just want to stay in bed.

 

[telsor]

Good luck to Adelaide and their fans.

I hope for no injuries, no major controversies (people will always find something to whine about though) and a good game.

Yes, Adelaide are favorites, but it's by no means a slam dunk and bigger underdogs have won numerous times before, so I maintain hope.

Sure, if 22 Crows players decided to take a nap, they'd have come back.

However since that didn't happen, Geelong didn't because they couldn't.

you do realise we lost the free kick count last week.

You do also realise that as far as free kick differentials , noone does WORSE than Richmond this year.

The free kick thing is a furfy

Best we've been treated all year is even free kick counts...

Maybe the crows supporters are urinating on each other in some weird pre game ritual like their oz national anthem stance lol

Nope, clear here

Crows by 38.
Norm Smith Medal - Tex Walker.

 

[Bazza97]

Adelaide will be too good in the end I reckon, but I still give Richmond a pretty good shot at winning this. Adelaide by 23 points.

 

[Glenhope]

For all the great Tiger supporters I know, Go Tigers.

 

[vaughany]

Does anyone know if the channel 107 broadcast through Foxtel will be shown in HD?
I believe Fox Footy HD can broadcast either side of the game but not allowed to show the actual grand final

luv to see the tigers get up but thinking crows easy

ON MY WAY TO G'!!! GO TIGES!

Sounds similar to us. We lose free kick counts and other teams claim the umpires looked after us. Every week lol.

 

[Ocker]

It's hard to get excited by this match as I can't remember two more average sides ever making the final week of the season. It really has been the weakest season in AFL history.

Crows are honest, Richmond are just flat out impostors.

I can't see the Crows being held to 12-13 goals, so all things being equal, they will win.

Crows by 37.

Hopefully 2018 sees improvement in the competition.

Thanks snake - we were hoping you'd say this

 

[Yellow Feathers]

Game day, bitches!!

Cheeky punt on the Crows / Matt Crouch double.
