2nds 2023 Adelaide Crows SANFL thread

[Carmo]

He was recruited playing wing wasnt he?

Long term we were hoping he might become our big bodied mid

 

[cleanhands]

Beating the top team at home

Impressive

Quite a few put their hand up from what I saw

Will anyone take notice?

 

[Mostyn]

There's a few who could be happy with what they offered out there.

Schoenberg, Crouch, Hately, Dowling, Strachan, Himmelburg, Nankervis, Cook - all very good and a few showed real AFL traits.

Will anyone take notice?

No I guess, but it fuels this Thursday night's selection melts when we go in unchanged after a pitiful loss

Nicks and VB both there.

That was a good performance. Everyone contributed well. Top ups were all pretty good.

So have we held anyone back apart from the sub McHenry?

Soligo I guess

Berry sick, Newchurch injured

Soligo being rested.

With finals a chance in the AFL, there’s no chance to experiment and try something different. I’d love to see them play Shoey in the middle for 3 games in a row and see how he goes because he has all the attributes to be a good midfielder for our club. Unfortunately can’t see them doing it because of a chance to play finals.
If Shoey does well, it could change our approach to draft and trade. We could trade out most of this years draft picks into next years as it’s supposedly stronger. Amazing that one player could change everything, big if though

He took 13 steps

No one would ever get penalised for that

13 Parnell-sized mini steps too

He only took ten after passing out of the square. Was it a kickout, or something else?

 

[jenny61_99]

Unfortunately that was definitely holding the ball. Tried to take them on.

I was talking about parnell

It was a kick out

I wonder what the rule is there?

If the umpire's interpretation is correct how exciting to be the first team penalised for it

 

[Geoffa32]

Schoenberg should be playing tonight

Nicks said in his presser that Soligo is the travelling emergency.

Long way to travel…

Travelling to Adelaide Oval

 

[GreyCrow]

Dowling is an AFL player. He just is. He has it.
Clean hands and quick decision maker. He needs to be given games this year.

Waiting on injuries to 3 key mids.

Think he'll get a full game this year?

 

[adelaidecrows]

Waiting on injuries to 3 key mids.

and maybe a coach who plays players from the Sanfl.

 

[hugecannon]

Where was Dowling playing today?
Stats make it look like he was playing inside mid a lot more than he has been.

 

[twiggy4PM]

Impressive game by the Crows. Strachan dominated the ruck and took many good marks. The pressure from the midfield was immense. Most of the game played in the Crows half. Best game I have seen Himmelberg play, clearly BOG.

The core of this team has played together for a while now and the benefit of having a SANFL team loaded with AFL talent and superior fitness may mean it could be premiership time.

Jarrad Wright (South coach) had at crack at the condition of Unley Oval yesterday. Too muddy, unsafe, not up to league standard. Said they picked up a couple of ankle injuries due to the ground.

Fair enough imho. It's in terrible condition. Sturt have moved their senior trainings to Karen Rolton Oval.

We play Sturt there on Sat Aug 19 in the afternoon then our league team plays Sydney Saturday night at Adelaide Oval. Would we be able to switch the SANFL game there as a curtain-raiser?

There are likely to be 15,000+ spare seats for Sturt fans...

Unley is notorious for having a substandard surface - particularly since League matches returned to the ground.

Also, was Wright sure that was mud?

Shithole and Norwood is looking pristine

If it wasn't for the brick wall and all-bitumen surrounds Norwood would be quite a nice ground
