Game Day Crows v Bulldogs in sunny ballarat

[CrowBloke]

Posters will
Dump on Frampton no matter how many marks or kicks get.
Scream at TV when see ROB gets another tap to their mids .
Or when Crouch standing in centre square with his player running towards goal square with ball.
Those Victorian knobs booing Tex.
Certain posters going on about Keays kicking although busted his gut out there in all aspects of game.

Yes, all bar the last one; Keays is my hero (but I do wish he'd kick better with his Right foot).

Speaking of a Crouch, anyone notice Brouch kick the sealer for the Saints vs GWS last night?
What interested me was that he was at the start of the chain that led to the goal.
Just forward of centre he handballed to the L-footer who kicks deep to the mark I50. After the handball Brouch takes off, hard, and catches up to the mark-player to receive the handball for a Joe-the-Goose.
1) fantastic hard-running effort after a hard game and
2) did he run that hard forward when playing for the Crows? I don't remember that he did.

Doedee would be the match up IMO

Definitely would get first crack you’d reckon.

Old mate nearly stuffed it too, crouch had to near stop and reach back to get it.

Apparently fairly warm in Ballarat atm, no wind.

Should be hopefully a good fast game.

Hopefully Frampton keeps the fumbles down to less than a handful.

Fumbles/ handful --- ah ha haaaaa!!

I see what you did, there, but I doubt it especially if an oppo player is close.
In packs/congestion Frampton often gets two hands on the ball, but rarely hangs onto it.

If that changes today, I'll be delighted.

 

[Crow till I die]

Yeah, you did --- on occasion .

Really good post.
I reckon Weightman's comments about how well he behaves for frees will be counter-productive.
Every AFL Ump would have read them and will be watching for it.

Whadya mean..the umps will be tripping over themselves to pay him frees at every opportunity..it will be a like a game of 1 upmanship to see who can crowd please the most!!

So 15 degrees?

 

[GROTTO]

Fun Facts with Grotto

The last time ROB and Martin went head to head, ROB had 37 HO and 13 disposals.

Martin had 23 HO and 15 disposals and 1goal.

SunSo 15 degrees?

18 and a light SSE breeze.... Perfect football weather

 

[CrowBloke]

Hey AmericanCrow , you up and about mate?

Waddaya reckon for today, with some crucial Dogs out and Crows in not-bad form?

I am indeed as it is a much more manageable Friday Night Footy game

I would like to think we are a chance—especially with the Texan in vintage form

What say you?

 

[radiojake]

Ok wtf is this joke of a warm sunny day? Overdressed and underprepared for a day in the sun

Wish I wore my shorts

 

[CrowinNT]

The surface better be as good as people say. No excuse for slipping over

All Vic clubs should play here or Wave Hill toughen them up
I think 1970crow might recognise this ground north west of Alice Springs

 

[radiojake]

A birthday win would be good, however I clearly remember 2 losses to the bulldogs on my birthday.
Hopefully Chayce Jones finds the form that he showed against the Bulldogs at Ballarat a couple of years ago when we thought we had a star coming through.

Snap with the birthday!

-- we are wearing our home top with white shorts??

Are you sure this isn't a picture of Kardinia Park in Geelong? Looks to be about the same level of AFL standard

 

[Geoffa32]

Just got to our camp site.

An unexpected win would be nice while we set up

[Danger Zone]

Adelaide by 61 points.


Crouch to play a blinder at (nearly) his old home ground.

Tex to kick 6. radiojake and Mutineer to be seen running on to the ground to celebrate his 500th.

Hopefully Mutineer can let us know what condition the surface of the ground is in then, I've heard it's the best in Australia

AFL should use a padded fence as a boundary line, would be a lot more entertaining, like ice hockey.

 

[StickerMan]

No red jumpers.

We will win.

Cmon Adelaide. Play hard and keep your arms down

I guess we all whinge about these Vic Grounds yet a lot of lads have come through these basic oval grounds - no boots barefoot

 

[moogerfooger]

hopefully our players are less nervous than that bugle player
