Review Good/Bad and the Umpiring.

[DaKids]

Thilthorpe's game is huge for us.

For the rebuild to be salvageable, he absolutely has to become a star of the competition. It'd been more than a year since he'd shown those sorts of signs, and the club was blinking on his development. This is it. The big reminder of the promise.

We just must sink games into him- he could become a top 5 in the league type guy.

Agree with this.

The moment for me tonight was the hand pass to Pedlar. Now did you see it in slow motion? He’s hit the ball at pace and as a right side player his natural instinct was to hand pass left. But in 1/100th of a second he saw Pedlar, and adjusted to hand pass to his right with the left hand.

To do that at speed was quite brilliant.

Also kicked 4.0. If it was between this week and round one for straight kicking, I'm glad it was this week.

It looked like he was nearly in tears after I think it was his 3rd when Tex was pumping his tongue in his ear, looked to me he was pointing down to the ground saying this is my home

 

[Jeffcrowe]

His offensive game is on a steady incline. He’s learning to use his strong boot to best advantage

Mainstay

He will make me sound silly soon

But Nick his kicking has been elite lately

He’s so powerful as well , not many have that athletic power he has

 

[Multiballz]

I think muzz can play up forward as well.

Who replaces him down back. Especially with Butts down?

 

[CrowBloke]

Best of ours for me.

THRILLthorpe? Rankine? Dawson? Laird?

 

[MsTopG]

Keane. We need to trade in another KPD. Perhaps Cox wants to come home from Freo.
Redman and Draper would be other good targets but Redman not a KPD.

How good is it having rankine

Just a match winner with endless ceiling

Combo of work rate desire and sheer talent

 

[LiamPickering]

Let’s rock the boat and stick a big contract in front of Rozee

Now we're talking!

 

[cleanhands]

How good is it having rankine

Just a match winner with endless ceiling

Combo of work rate desire and sheer talent

We have got some serious talent

Yep, the athleticism/strength combo is one of the most dynamic attributes a footballer can possess. Especially for a KPD

I’d love to see Keane next to him at some point, think they’d be a great complement to each other

 

[spenze]

Was at the game, god the Port Shtick is embarrassing. Drums, never tear us apart, drums, heritage, underachieving...well the last bit was good.

Thitlhorpe should have been the showdown medalist, anyone at the Cathedral?

 

[CroCrow]

Thilly, Fog, Rankine, Rachele and Pedlar.

God damn that's a juicy forward line to look forward to each week.

When it gels it's going to be efficient, deadly and super exciting to watch.

And When Scotty Welshs (Tyler)son comes in father son next year, a high marking with great hands quick leading 189cm fwd we are going to be sultivating. GUESS what, Crows will trade their first round pick next year for another first this year as Welsh is a likely tip 10 pick. Also Michalaney has a brother eligible next year who apparently goes alright also?? Anyone know anything about him ....know he's un the state squad

Tonight was a showcase of what our forward line is capable of, and we didn't even have Fog! Just get a taller, bigger-bodied, blue chip midfielder in and things aren't looking so bad after all.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Keane. We need to trade in another KPD. Perhaps Cox wants to come home from Freo.
Redman and Draper would be other good targets but Redman not a KPD.

Do we though ? What happens if Keane comes on

Murray Keane butts Worrell Doedee Michaelanny as >190cm

We need an elite half back instead of milera and smith more than a key defender presuming Keane comes on

BZT from the Bombers is one I wouldn’t mind. Has looked solid towards the back end of last year and up until he got injured this year. Wouldn’t cost a ton either

Agree

 

[CrowBloke]

We were poor, no where near as good as 1st half vs Gws, 3rd qtr vs Richmond etc. It just happened to be we were playing a team worse than both GWS and Richmond.

Ridiculous nonsense.

 

[WetCrow1991]

$90 well spent.

 

[spenze]

how good was the Sholl holding the ball,what a shite free kick that was

 

[MsTopG]

Redman and Draper plus an elite mid would really help us. Possibly top 6 contention.

 

[Redleg Crow]

BTW, if any player would be worth the godfather offer, it would be Conner Rozzee for me.

That kid's annoyingly good

Yep, the pre-draft hype was on the money

 

[CroCrow]

6 ft 3 hard runner , elite kick , loves the club and wants to win

Nothing missing there

Goes to my gym occasionally, a champion bloke

Not unless it's just happened he's not.

Mostyn now is a good time to go:

“Ok guys, you were right, Dawson should not be playing defence”

Never again.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

how good was the Sholl holding the ball,what a shite free kick that was

What about Hinge for same thing

There is no protected area anymore , it’s just that the afl never told the fans or the crows

Port and the commentators knew though

F1rk wits
