Review GBU: Jordan Dawson sinks Port Adelaide after the siren

[cm_perfect]

That kick had a touch of the Terry Alderman’s about it!!!

 

[GROTTO]

I felt so bad for Rachele when the ump called 50. Then you can the happiness when we won, it was wholesome

He had his redemption moment, his presence in the last play, created panic with the Port players.

Make no mistake about that.

 

[hey shorty]

As I said, the slow play works when you can change the gears back up at the right time.

Tonight it wasn't perfect but it was better, and the slow plays were trying to change angles

 

[GROTTO]

That kick had a touch of the Terry Alderman’s about it!!!

That was like a ball turning on a sub continent wicket.

Glory be.

That turned at least 5 metres at the end of its trajectory.

 

[Scorpus]

No use wanting Frampton out as Murray very average in SANFL. Is there another tall option?

There's a pick 6 we need to find out whether they have it or not

Was Dawson the closest one to Murphy?

I saw Crouch lurking and was screaming at him to get the fu** away

Actual comedy imagining crouch try to take that kick.

Would have gone 10 metres.

 

[BRL121]

I hope he is fine.

Would be funnier if he is totally fine and plays next week.

It was brilliant on his part: what game awareness!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

For a fraction of a second, the ball off the boot was going right, missing.

I reckon the collective yearning of success-starved Crows fans and the eagerness of the Crows' juniors willed the ball to go left and through, consigning Port to a crushing loss and a 0-3 start.

Something near that goal square really, really sucked hard

Got the ball back on track

I think it was Darcy Byrne-Jones

 

[Scorpus]

I said this in the game day thread but Mitch Hinge is a far superior footballer to Jake Kelly

He woulda handballed it







To O'Brien

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Hopefully McAsey. Didn't have a lot of stats today but he didn't really need to do much, and he kept Finlayson at bay.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

I saw many a lean game over the last decade or so, but at least we never carried on like the Port board.

Good god. Thats downright embarrassing.

Good win fellas.

Hope you guys win it this yeae

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

You know, Himmelberg probably deserved the medal. He won us the game.

 

[StonesThrow]

In order of best things that happened :

We won
We won playing shit football
We beat Port

Good :

Dawson obviously. He's our best player, which is exciting and a bit sad at the same time.

Gollant. He's got something.

Himm. I think I've always been his biggest supporter here but even I thought it was time for him to go. Don't think he was as good as his goal tally suggests. Took his opportunities which was excellent. Didn't have much opposition though.

Rachele. Even he was fumbling at times, but was still a highlight in a shitty performance.

Not much else really. I think we played shit football for most of the game and are horribly out of form. Very lucky win.

 

[WetCrow1991]

So glad a mate was able to join me and I went. heck what a rollercoaster and you better believe I gave it to the Port Supporters after their behaviour at the last few Showdowns.

 

[BRL121]

What was wrong with Skinner??

Was he actually injured or just a strategic sub? Their fresh player came on and kicked a goal.

We should have done the same.

That was clearly Berg's best game of his career - it was a better game than any Fogarty has ever had, in his 44 AFL games.

Both Gollant & Berg achieved more tonight than Fog has for the entire season to date. Heck, Berg's 2nd Q was better than Fog's entire season.

With Walker due back next week, it's an absolute no-brainer for the selectors when it comes to choosing who to drop. Fog was literally the worst player on the ground.

No fog kicked 5 in perth other stats very similar.

Jones was WOG
Fog at least shepherded a goal through and didn’t give up one

 

[GROTTO]

Tonight the Adelaide Football Club literally broke the Port Adelaide Football Club into two.

Torn apart.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Himmelberg handballing into ROBs head and then kicking goals is peak Himmelberg.

 

[Shuestar13]

I don't think their list is as good as they think it is. They still rely too much on too few i.e Boak and Wines (and Gray when he's available).

Their 'holy trinity' that they refer to seems to consist of only one player. Duursma and Rozee are on a slide.

This is a look into their team in the next 2 years once Gray, Boak and Dixon move on, and it doesn't look that impressive IMO. They can't rely on Marshall kicking 5 every week!

Definitely. I mean we (neutrals) know that. But sadly they don’t seem to live in reality

wow you're hatred for Fogarty even shines through after an amazing win.
Himmelberg had a freak show game and congrates to him - it was well over due infact it was probably his last chance.

Gollant was awesome and congrats to him.

 

[spenze]

Oh man, you guys need to read the Port board

Umpires gave us a leg up

This loss brings them closer to Clarko

better than the last kick of the match

 

[GROTTO]

Say what you want.

Clutch moments in the game.

Boak Chokes.

Dawson goals.
