AFL Rd 20: Adelaide v Port Adelaide - 16:05 ACST, AUG 04, 2018 - The Derby!

[Stretford End]

Another throw not paid

 

[Rod Stroker]

Westhoff is everywhere. Setting up goals, back in defense, in the ruck...

 

[twiggy4PM]

Port scoring much too easily when they get the ball out the back. Adelaide's defensive structures non-existent

 

[Free Agent]

Crows in troble here. Port using the ball a lot better. Could blow out if they dont respond.

 

[Checkered]

Hahahah how's Ricciutos bias shining through calling Wingars a diver ghere

 

[Power Raid]

eddie

 

[RandB]

The difference is forward line congestion at Adelaide's end, mostly open at Port's end. This simplistic coaching strategy is working for Hinkley but also a result of Port moving the footy quicker.

 

[Power Raid]

a lucky let off there

Hahahah how's Ricciutos bias shining through calling Wingars a diver ghere

Only because he is. Wingard, Grey and Thomas are a centre of diving excellence.

 

[Power Raid]

bummer

 

[TheSierBear]

Gerard Healy is such a poor commentator judge of footy. Betts has been cooked for nearly 2 years. He won't be the difference as much as I want him to be and for Adelaide to win this game.

 

[Power Raid]

crows have lifted

I don't disagree but that wasn't a dive there and Ricciuto was 100% wrong

 

[Fabab]

Best game of the round so far imo.

 

[twiggy4PM]

Lucky let off. Port much cleaner in their forward 50.

 

[SuperSub17]

I don't disagree but that wasn't a dive there and Ricciuto was 100% wrong

The point was that Wingard stayed down and held his head in his hands.

 

[Power Raid]

lift port

 

[twiggy4PM]

Adelaide have blown their chances. If they kicked straight they should be in front.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Sam Powells pecker couldn't squeeze it through

 

[Free Agent]

Lynch needs to lift. Seems down on confidence. Nothing like the player he was last season.

 

[RunByThePool]

Rushed it over without pressure? Has to be a free.

 

[Power Raid]

tex finding form

 

[Power Raid]

a great first half crows

 

[twiggy4PM]

Tex has to be carrying an injury. He would usually kick those with ease and he didn't make the distance.

 

[Free Agent]

Weird that Crows have had a lot more inside 50s and controlled most of this quarter but are down on the scoreboard.

Poor forward effeciency has killed them.
