Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 22 - Crows v Dogs Sun Aug 11th 4:10pm AEST/3:40PM CST (AO)

[ams4crows]

A bloody frustrating season as a Crows fan, we manage to keep up with the good teams without ever winning and regular lose to the teams around or below us. Then we will play a blinder when finals are non existent for us.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Nicks and our useless staff.

he wasn't so useless last year when you almost made finals

 

[Soggy2112]

Caleb Daniel 15 touches in a quarter and a half as the SUB done better than nearly half his team mates

Absolutely staggering that Bevo can’t find a role for someone with his skill and poise.

 

[Slime Roy]

Bevo clearly focused his prep on the skateboarding in Paris, not the football in Adelaide...and there was also a really obvious nod to Raygun in the way they went about it.

That umpire paying all the free kicks and the handball by Fogarty as holding the ball is the one who paid 17 frees to 1 against us when he umpired a Bulldogs crows game about 5 years ago. He's also a Bulldogs supporter. I don't know why they'd let him umpire our games. Especially a dog's crows game ever again.

That seems a bit unlikely, as Troy Pannell retired 6 years ago..

 

[SSwans2011]

What a bizarre end to a bizarre round. The Crows further demonstrate how much they've underperformed this year, but the Bulldogs were really poor as well.

On another note, this just HAS to be Bont's Brownlow year. It will be such a farce if he retires without one.

 

[Walker Texas Danger]

That was Troy Pannell. He should have never been allowed to umpire any Bulldogs game.

And I thought it was 18-0.

Was 17 - 1. The 1 was when the Crows were streaming out of the middle to go inside 50m, and he called it back.

[Go the Guts]

Must be tough as a Crows supporter seeing this form and knowing the list has the talent to match and beat the best teams

Have one of the best forward lines in Tex, Fog, Thilthorpe, Rachele, Keays, Rankine..

Our list profile is coming into the window…. We’ll be thereabouts next year.

 

[Go the Guts]

Baffling that the Crows are 4th bottom

A number of our best players out for chunks of the season.

Thilthorpe, Murray, Worrall, Rankine, etc….
We’ll be better next year. I actually think we will jump up the ladder significantly.

 

[OniAu]

Aa biased as the umpires are.

And most of the Vic commentators

Oh i dont disagree, its not about a state thing. AFL Commentary is appalling compared to other sports.

Umpiring is atrocious also due to the rules committee think its just to add rule changes/interpretations mid-season. So amateruish

surely Bont aint getting any votes from yesterdays game.

Fog
O'Brien
Keays

Those guys were my top 3, would have had Crouch, Keane and Sholl ahead of him too.

Oh yeah, was more a geneal point. The Dogs were completely outclassed and he still put in a great shift. He's had another brilliant season and it would be criminal for him to retire without a Brownlow.

 

[OverseasCrowNA]

If we didn't have Nicks last year, we would have been a top 6 team.

would only get 1 vote at the most if they took his game into account. Crows played well, shut down the Dogs midfield making it ineffective for the majority of the game

Would certainly be his year if he snuck a vote in for that game given the output of the names I mentioned above.

I see he didnt get a coaches vote either which I thought was a tad unlucky.

yeah, odd that Darcy got a coaches vote, I didnt think Darcy had more of an impact TBH

If would have had a great game if he could have kicked straight.

He is a talent

You're implying the award is anything other than a farce right now?
