Collingwood v Adelaide Match Thread

Pies will win

 

[jackie_bombers]

Thats a big call after watching the Adelaide vs North game last year.

True. Low scoring game isn't it? How much time left...and what's the latest score?

 

[Ford Fairlane]

anyone who says either side is flooding is an idiot. collingwoods entry into the 50 is woeful, adelaides is just as bad, both teams are as crap as each other. if either side straightens up and kicks to a moving target, not a stationary one, they will win by 5.

You're assuming they'll kick straight ... big call

youre an idiot

They obviously flooded. Johncock and Riccuito were spare in defence. They clearly flooded. And tahts all well and good because Collingwood ate into the Crows hands and just booted it forward blindly.

Exact same as last week....or did you think you didnt flood last week either?

 

[Macca19]

To those calling me an idiot Adelaide clearly have one-two extra men who are dropping back once Collingwood get the ball.

Collingwood all out attack so far in this third quarter, working better, finding some space but not getting the goals on the board. Adelaide just cant get the ball forard of centre at all. Adelaides half forward line has dissapeared completely. Perrie, Stevens and Hentschel have had 6 disposals between them.

I don't care how big the flood is. If you can only kick 3 goals half way through the 3rd quarter there are issues.

Wheres the flood buster, big Anthony?!

 

[Macca19]

Hentschel goals, now Biglands has a chance that you could think could seal the game this early.

He misses.

6.8 44
3.9 27

Caracella marks about 40 out on an angle. Needs to kick it. Beautiful kick.

6.8 44
4.9 33

 

[Macca19]

Rocca seems to be playing too close to goal to be any sort of floodbuster at the moment.

Mcleod apparently hasnt had a kick since quarter time.

Caracella kicks two in a minute after a good pass by Leon.

6.8 44
5.9 39

Hooray a contest!!

 

[Macca19]

Its heated up in the past 2 minutes.

Mcleod runs onto a ball as Johnson fell over, takes a bounce, runs to about 25 out on an angle and goals. Adelaide steadies.

7.8 50
5.9 39

 

[Macca19]

Leon a high shot into goal, marked on the goalline by Williams, gets sent into the carpark to kick it, but gets the goal.

Funny how in 5 minutes it can go from one of the worst games of football possible to an overly exciting game. Adelaides defensive play is getting unstuck and Collingwood are hitting targets - which they didnt do in the first half. Winning the ball out of the middle too. Hudson getting killed in the ruck.

Rocca for another goal, 55 out, misses.

7.8 to 6.10 now.

 

[Macca19]

Cole runs past the ball in the Crows forward 50, Hentschel cleans up the ball, spins around and goals. What a game!!!!

8.8 to 6.10. Back out to 10 points

 

[jackie_bombers]

7.8 is the pies score? or crows?

 

[Funkalicous]

Sounds like the game's opened up a bit. Goals starting to be kicked at each end now.

 

[Macca19]

Caracella misses. 9 points the margin in Adelaides favour.

Slowed down a bit again now.

Hudson drops a mark from the kick in, ball gets to Licuria who finds C Cloke all alone in the goalsquare and goals. Collingwood back within a kick.

Adelaide by 3 points.

 

[Macca19]

Adelaide 8.8
Collingwood 7.11

5 seconds left in the Pies forward pocket. Quick snap will only score. Dunno why the out on the full didnt result in a kick on goal.

Close game, opened up that quarter. Adelaide still playing a few men back in defence but Collingwood found a way open that quarter. Adelaide got a few goals on the counter attack.

Hopefully more of that quarter in the last.

 

[Macca19]

Caracella kicks a goal from a free kick and Collingwood hit the front for the first time since the first quarter

 

[Macca19]

Great mark by Wakelin after a Riccuito kick into the forward line. Terrible kick, Roo has a snap but doesnt carry, Woewodin clears to Cloke who clears to the wing. Adelaide win it back, Collingwood get it back...Obree has a few bounces, passes to Rowe, goes into the 50......CARACELLA AGAIN!!!!!! Becoming the matchwinner...good team goal Collingwood. Up by 10 now.

 

[Macca19]

15 minutes left now, Collingwood up by 10. Commentators mentioning that Hart has been off the field since early on....hope he hasnt re=injured himself again.

Adelaide desperately need a forward option to stand up now. As i say that Edwards goals from a snap in the goalsquare. Game on!!!!

 

[thewhippersnapper]

Go Crows!

Keep updating the scores.

 

[Slander]

If Adelaide lose they are going to rival Freo and Essendon for weakest loss of the round.

[Funkalicous]

There's already been a few exciting finishes this round. Looks like we may have another.

 

[Macca19]

Play a bit stagnant on the wing at the moment. Collingwood free kick to Burns...dodgy one....finds Tarrant on a lead 45 out deep in the pocket. Would be a miracle goal. Just misses.

Coll 9.13
Adel 9.8

Yep + the Hawks/Richmond game looks like it will be a good finish.
