Adelaide Solves the Mystery to stopping Gary Jnr.

I didnt get the chance to see the game, only heard Chris McDermott and co discussing it Sunday morning, and I was amazed that Ablett actually got a touch.

Apparently the Crows outplayed Geelong for 3 quarters.

Haha, so true. And the Crowvertiser had a picture of the Cats v Crows game on the back on Sunday despite us beating the reigning premiers at home. To think, there are actually people who think that shit newspaper favours us.
 
Yep .... its gone now, figured it was over the top.


Your right - clueless. And while I liked him initially, I'm hoping Triggy is wearing latex gloves, because Rowe is certainly sounding like a Triggy puppet the way he is blindly defending the Bock decision.


Dont know how to take Rowe. Living in Tassie and not being able to listenn to 5AA doesnt help. From what I've read, what you are saying is truly believable.

Add to that the fact that for the first few weeks of the season the centre spread has had some sort of "game of the week spread" ... so far each week its been of the Crows game. IT was fair enough the first few weeks as the Adelaide/Collingwoood game was a good one, and we were terrible against West Coast. ut this week when we play a decent/exceptional game and the Crows are poop ... the spread is still of the Crows.

I'd just finished playing footy and had an hours drive home so caught most of the pre-game - it was deadset embarrasing how naive and blind he was.

Every other panaelist was commenting on how stupid he was sounding, yet he maintains Craigy and Triggy would never tell a white lie to benefit their football club.
 
Gary might start getting a tag now. And it probably won't be guys like Jared Petrenko next time :eek:

If oppositions don't tag him it's simply because they realise that a one on one tag is ineffective. Their plan is generally to limit his effectiveness by clogging up the space ahead of him, which is why he is hand-balling more and more thus releasing the players around him. The fact that he is getting so many contested possessions shows the unadulterated class and work ethic of the man.
Also because of the zoning we see now, it is more difficult to apply a hard tag without the extra bodies around the contests.
 
Did you just compare GAJ to Leigh Matthews? :eek:

Ummm, Matthews kicked 900+ goals as a midfielder, and later as a forward pocket.

Nope, I said each of them are different types, and each of them were/are great players that I'd love to have in my footy team.

BTW, if the players are not full forwards or permanent forwards, the total goals each kicked is hardly a true indicator to greatness.
 
All midfielders spend some time on the bench, son.
Yes. How does that help your contention that he was benched because he wasn't getting enough of the ball?

So let's go through lies that have been debunked in this thread:
-Ablett never cops hard tags (reality: he mostly does)
-Ablett was thrashed by Sewell (reality: he continued playing well for the 3rd quarter before being rested in the last)
-Petrenko tagged Ablett (reality: he went to him when Ablett was being rested in the forward line. Shirley was the only one who tagged Ablett)
-Ablett gets cheap handballs (reality: it is a tactic to free up space for himself and his teammates or to get the ball out of congestion)

i wouldnt even bother replying to that massive tool podgey! anyone with half a brain can see he talks shit!!!

Well Power supporters themselves don't bother turning up to their own team's games, you can hardly blame anyone for thinking nobody cares about that team.

You yourself are a perfect example of this. You cry and whinge a lot in this forum but you don't go to any games. Because if you did, you would know for a fact that Danyle Pearce gets racially abused by Power supporters on a regular basis.

I agree with your point about Petrenko.

Once again you resort to unsubstantiated (and unsubstantiable) allegations. Without one skerrick of proof you have been bashing "racial abuse allegations" like a wife beater bashes his missus.

Now back to the topic, I’m glad the worlds best coach Craig David came up with a fool proof plan to curtail Ablett’s influence. After all Ablett is my DreamTeam captain. Thank you Craig, your incompetence is appreciated.

Do you by any chance go to Port games? If not, how would you know? If so, you are a massive loser who needs a life (especially considering you live in Victoria, but I can imagine you driving down to AAMI to watch our games and then to come back to Bay 13 and say 'I heard someone in the crowd say Abo, all Port supporters are racists! Dunno why he was saying it about Brett Ebert though') if that wasn't confirmed by your constant boring trolling. Oh and BTW I haven't missed a game for anything less than a broken ankle I suffered last year for a long time. And I've never heard anybody racially abuse Pearce. It may happen somewhere but not where I'm sitting (did you read that bit? That's called not pretending to know something that you can't possibly know)
 
Fact of the matter remains that Power supporters should stop whinging and crying about lack of media coverage or low attendances when they play interstate because they themselves don't care about their team enough to attend games.

I mean seriously, don't be such a hypocrite. If you don't care about your own team and don't attend games, why should anybody else?
 
You had no answer to my post so you change the subject. Classic Sekaj. Now go and throw bottles at a 12-year-old or something.

*waits for 'Well your post was so stupid I couldn't be bothered answering it' response, once again failing to answer a question that you have no answer for*

No answer to what? You have done absolutely nothing to refute the facts that I have presented.

Nothing changes the fact that Power supporters (the few that do attend games, not you because you are just a typical fair-weather Power otherwise you would actually know this is fact) racially abuse Pearce in a disgraceful manner.

Don't worry gopower, Sekaj is absolute filth of the lowest kind. He makes blokes who hit women look like Samaritans.

Expect a PM soon from me where I’ll point out what I mean.

Luke Power said:
Power says the Port players copped a torrent of abuse from their fans after squandering such a big lead to lose their fourth game from as many starts this season.

"There was one throw-in on the boundary in the last quarter and some Port fans were yelling out they wanted to kill some of their players," he said.

"So I wouldn't want to be a Port Adelaide player this morning."

Power supporters = Disgraceful :thumbsdown:

And if gopower actually went to games, he would know this.

If you present some facts I will be glad to refute them. You may not know this, but it can be difficult to hear what every single person in the crowd at an AFL game is saying. I have never heard anyone racially abuse Pearce. It might happen, there are a lot of assholes in this world including yourself, but I've never heard it.
