2nds AFC 2022 SANFL Thread

[dogs105]

Only managed to catch last 1/4 or so but McAsey, Hamil, Gollant, Pedlar and Hately are looking pretty good!

Bigfooty will have to find someone different to write off for this week.

How good is it to see a mid with burst speed

And then look for a forward target and hit him

 

[crows dude]

115 - 87 final score

Crows 18-7 v 13-9, final score

 

[Crowman32]

I think we have a ripper with zac taylor

 

[Crow-eater]

All over.

Crows 115
Redlegs 87

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Very good hit out.

Pedlar and Gollant exciting.

Strauchan a capable AFL ruck.

Hately and McAsey showing not to write them off yet.

 

[maxlilly]

Lots of positives to take out of that game.
Pedlar, Gollant, Davis and Cook all looking great

 

[dogs105]

Are any stats being kept?

 

[Bearded Clam]

Its refreshing to see a crows midfield that actually spread and provide some speed and run from the contest… and then look for and hit up leading players up the ground..

They went to sleep at the start of the third though which I guess is expected from such young/inexperienced players..

Really like the look of that Taylor lad..

 

[Crowstar]

Taylor's creativity is impressive. Setting team mates up with opportunities is priceless. Exciting prospect.
Pedlar, Gollant, Strauchan, a class above

 

[Scorpus]

Selection pressure is real boys!

 

[UcantCme]

Pedlar just needs continuity in his footy and he will not only be best 22 but will seriously add to the AFL team.

Selection pressure is real boys!

The thing is, we know the club rates Pedlar, they'll find a spot for him pretty soon if he keeps that up.

 

[Mutineer]

Any chance we get that type of umpiring in the SANFL season proper.....wishful thinking?

Selection pressure is real boys!

Did Berry get much of it?

 

[Carmo]

God it was good to see our center contests involving a 50/50 balance of our players minding their opponents and going for the ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Far out it has shite me that we only seemed to be focussed on defending previously.

You can see it with Taylor, he was just given license to go get the ball and he can do it bigtime. I guess it helps having ruck dominance but still, I can't see why we couldn't have done that previously.

Rowe is the obvious out IMO

Pedlar can play forward, or push up the ground

Not really. I’m not that bullish on Berry. He’s a fighter but limited.

I nominate Newchurch: he won't make it.

Very much so.

Soligo too

 

[dogs105]

Where did Murphy play today?

 

[Crow-eater]

Only saw the last 2.5 quarters (So missed the best one)

McAsey: Didn't mind his game. Coming from a low base, but perfectly good game from him.
Taylor: I like him, a lot. We may have gotten a steal here.
Murphy/Davis/Frampton: Meh. You know what you get with these guys. Depth.
Hately: Pretty good.
Hamill: Had his moments.
Strachan: A level above.

Pedlar: BOG.
Gollant: Next BOG
These two are next in line. Rowe/Berg/Fog are now nervously looking over their shoulders.

 

[CrowinNT]

We need to draft the best young ruck in the mid-season draft because another AFL side will definitely attempt to poach Strachan for a role at AFL level

Absolutely
I like Strachan. Like VB I mean NB
stated in the commentary he will be basically be poached / goneski through lack of opportunity

 

[MRB37]

Any chance we get that type of umpiring in the SANFL season proper.....wishful thinking?

I would say so!
