Game Day Crom vs Bombres - Round 17

[Danger in Texas]

I’ve come to realise the Crows fan base mostly consists of idiots such as yourself. When people actually start asking some serious questions of the club then maybe they’ll do something.

Doesn’t mean that your schtick didn’t get old ages ago

 

[1990crow]

We just suck at marvel. Can't play it same as Geelong. Collingwood game felt like we turned a corner at the G. A small ground against essendon we just get carved up outside the contest and it's very quickly i50.

Don't buy any of this.

 

[GameofSloanes]

Also the umpiring is terrible. But it's having no impact on the result at least

 

[Twist_of_Lemon]

Well I hope you don’t go then! He has been an outstanding servant of our club. Don’t over react over one game!

... one game? Did they just defrost you Encino Man-style before last weekend's game?

 

[Scorpus]

Who are the weak links?

Sholl - 13 disposals, 5 turnovers
Rankine - 6 disposals, 3 turnovers
McHenry - 6 disposals, 4 turnovers
Michalanney - 3 disposals, 2 turnovers

Sloane - 7 pressure acts
Murphy - 7 pressure acts
Keays - 7 pressure acts
Milera - 7 pressure acts
McHenry - 4 pressure acts

(Reference for pressure acts: Sholl with 12, Laird with 14, Rachele 17, Dawson 17)

We have guys absolutely butchering the ball and others applying zero pressure.

McHenry an absolute shocker of a game. Genuine spud. Same number of turnovers as pressure acts

 

[thebirdman 24]

They’re getting comfortably outplayed so no issue there and we deserve to be well behind - but Jesus Christ the shitful umpiring decisions we get week in week out is so blatant. Couple of obvious marks not paid, couple of holding the balls not paid, one Essendon player got warned 3 times to move back on the mark …

It is hard to fixate on the umpires when we have been so awful.

I’m in Bali and I can see from here Sloane and McHenry atrocious

 

[1970crow]

I thought I heard nicks say playing as good as he ever has.

Nicks isn’t the brightest spark,

 

[redandblack]

This is where we are. Essendon are playing the game of their lives and woukd beat anyone playing like that. We're going to have these games at this stage of our development, which is far more advabced than anyone expected.

Having said that, Sholl doesn't impress abd we desperately need a topline midfielder.

would be a disaster on the fast deck at Marvel? Oh, everyone with a clue. Moronic selection.

Also, someone better have a word to Rachele about the need to actually try. His effort level is pathetic, and just quietly he’s not even close to a top 10 player from that draft on output at this point.

Lachie Murphy - pathetic.

Michalanney - needs a spell and has been awful, but the brains trust really came up with Langford as his matchup? Not Durham. Not any small whatsoever. Langford. Laughable.

Sholl - once again, apparently the fact that this guy would lose a foot race with present day Sam Jacobs

apparently means nothing because he hits the odd pretty 25m pass. He’s shit, and it’s a joke that he’s ever selected.

An utterly putrid half, from a bunch of pretenders. I sincerely hope we miss the 8. Making it and getting pumped by 60 by a real side gets us nowhere.

I’ve come to realise the Crows fan base mostly consists of idiots such as yourself. When people actually start asking some serious questions of the club then maybe they’ll do something.

Cool story bro.

If you don't like us supporters, the club or the AFL why do you post do much on BigFooty?

But you won't care because you're not emotionally invested.

On this performance I would drop Rankine, Sholl, McHenry, Sloane, Murphy.
Club needs to create some standards.

 

[aabp1978]

Between Port winning, Poms about to triumph in the test, and this woeful effort I really hate sport this weekend. We clearly arent a finals side, not even close. And if we dont actually recruit a decent midfielder in the off season we will be stuck in the 9-14 range

 

[Southerntakeover]

Well I hope you don’t go then! He has been an outstanding servant of our club. Don’t over react over one game!

He last played good football in the first half of 2017.

He's not a 'servant'. He did what he was entitled to do- maximised his contract and got paid more than his performance deserved. I don't see any need to clap him for it.

 

[Multiballz]

We won't make Finals, and if we do meh.

Will just get beaten by plenty.


Needed to win this game to show making Finals means something.

Read that as "we wont make finals if we do METH".

Whats to lose I thought for a second.

 

[Peter Doherty]

See this is why I don’t care about the Crows, why I don’t have any emotional interest at all in this football club. When guys like Sholl, Milera, Slone can run around week after week and put in putrid performances without any consequences, why should I care? It’s laughable. And it happens year on year.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Apparently Essendon sung the song at half time

 

[thebirdman 24]

It would so be Adealide to drop Rankine instead of Sholl, Mchenry or Murphy.

Never mind that Rankine is playing the deepest forward of that lot and we can't get the ball anywhere near our forward line.

Pedlar and Rachele have looked good in the middle. Laird and Sloane not so much.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

We just suck at marvel. Can't play it same as Geelong. Collingwood game felt like we turned a corner at the G. A small ground against essendon we just get carved up outside the contest and it's very quickly i50.

Haven’t pick the right team for Marvel

 

[Moonwatcher]

Changes for next week….

Keays - an inanimate steel rod..

So Keays is still better than the carbon rod?

 

[Cap]

I think the bigger question is, why are you obsessed with me?

I'm not.

I responded to your post, you can't seem to stop.

Even though you don't want to be here and no one else wants you here.

I think someone is obsessed, but it ain't me.

Thunderbirds!

 

[Geoffa32]

One positive.


We have won every CBA Pedlar has contested. And done well with Rachele in there.


Those guys should play most CBAs with Dawson for the rest of the game. Swap out with Laird and even Keays. Not Sloane.



Sub Sloane.


Might even turn the game if they did that.
