Gameday - Adelaide vs. Melbourne @ MCG

[BACCS]

Petrenko is our sub, while Melbourne's is Wonnemarri (sp?). Cmon boys! Also, Schmidt is starting on the ground.

Come on Crows, smash the bastards.

 

[Sir Vlado]

Convinced that we'll manage more than 60 points this time around.

 

[JP Sauce]

**** this is a huge game!

/obvious statement

Petrenko as the sub could inject some real pace into the game as other players get tired.

 

[Chief Crow]

Apparently it is pissing down in Melbourne. This could be a good thing as the Dees had that extra footy training session during the week and they may tire earlier on a soggy deck. This wheather will also be good for our ball winning mids in Thomo, Danger and Sloane.

From what i have heard it could be a wet match
Demons should come out firing early

Not a good thing for our tall forward line though.

I think we have got the sub wrong i would have started Petrenko

Good afternoon folks and welcome to the Gameday thread for Melbourne v Adelaide from the MCG.

As has been mentioned previously, the weather is ordinary for this game between two sides who have been pretty ordinary all year. 2.4mm has already fallen in Melbourne since 9am but according to the BOM radar looks like the worst of the rain has past as Melbourne shivers to a top of just 16 degrees.

The past few Melbourne v Adelaide games have been shocking to say the least, and with the form of both sides going into today's game, I'd expect today's game to be another one for the 'how not to play football' files.

Despite flying back from Perth, Melbourne will be fresh after 10 days between games, having playing at Patersons Stadium last Thursday, while it's been 8 days since Adelaide did what it had to do against St Kilda.

Bounce down is just under 40 minutes away and this thread will be the place to be for play by play discussion between fellow Crows fans.

You would think Rutten would match up on Jurrah today

 

[AlCapone]

Grr, not live. Will have to watch in delay.

Unless money is an issue and for many people these days it is, why wouldn't you go to the game?

Location = Melbourne.

Well, it isn't up to me. I'd only go to the game with my dad. And got no Melbourne fans to go with either. (only 17)

Which is a bummer, because I would have gone.

Fair enough.

Dad not a crows fan? what's wrong with him.

And i doubt i'd go to the footy by myself either.

 

[BACCS]

What a shit crowd yet again for a Melbourne game.

 

[JP Sauce]

Wow, there's absolutely no one there. I guess that was to be expected.

 

[Valentino Dmitri]

Hang on a sec

I'm not sure about on the mainland, but down here in tassie Southern Cross (network who shows Channel 7's footy games) showed a film called Trail of the Pink Panther.

i just ducked out to get some lunch but my boob radar was beeping, so i snuck a look at the tv and sure enough there was two naked women frollicking in a shed norks akimbo. i reckon southern cross just looked at the pg rating and decided there would be nothing too racey in there. pretty unlucky.

ps go crows!

 

[Drummond]

I'm so nervous about this one, I really am.

Listen to all the pressure been applied to that useless club. Bailey is a spud of a coach and I don't care how much pressure they're under and how determined they'll come out, we should beat them as we're the better side.

Smash these jokers.

 

[brucetiki]

I'd be surprised if 5000 is at the 'G atm.

Have Melbourne people become soft - Etihad is also pretty spartially populated for Essendon v West Coast

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

Yeah, what a bunch if idiots. Not choosing to sit in the rain when they can sit undercover.

MCG would have about 65% undercover. That would be about 60,000 seats. I'm sure they would get about 28-30,000 today. That's on par to most other clubs.

Are you watching? No where near 30,000 there.

Knights has no confidence from 50 anymore.
