You guys need to look at our NAB Cup losses since Ken started. It has been brutal.

 

[pafc88]

Mostly coincidental I'd say

 

[starkie007]

This is not looking good at all. We are missing 4 key players, but to lose by this margin to a side like Adelaide is not a good sign

Is it just me or is this thread full of people who never post here, just talking negative crap.

Stop being so negative newbie.

 

[Moses01]

Pre season or not, take some pride in the jumper campaigners.

Shutup.

 

[PJ Power]

Not to the detriment of the stuff that actually matters, no.

So you think we've decided to keep a few things back today? Will be interesting to see how this form rolls into round 1

 

[PowerbaII]

If everyone could just take a peek at last 4 years nab results and settle back into their seat as much as Ken is, that'd be greeaat.

FTFY. They lift for Nab Showdowns

Lol people reading anything into this. I'm actually amazed the crows are taking this game so seriously.

Port went hard in the 2013 pre-season when Ken just took over

 

[Seanybruz]

Impey has played himself out of round 1 I feel.

Not sure O'Shea was in it originally but his poor preseason performances & being subbed out today have put a line through his name.

I don't think Neade, Mitchell & possibly even White deserve their spot ahead of a few of the potential ins either.

And cruise mode is good because?

Our players won't get sucked into treating this like it means anything?

Crows have been going full bore all day. Douglas getting Gray late on that OOF. Sloane clipping Mitchell late. It's madness.

 

[Macca19]

Im not too fussed about our lack of intensity or the fact the Crows are leading by plenty. Its a non issue. The lack of form by the small defenders is a disappointment but im not concerned yet. Our inability to get the ball through the sticks is a massive concern however. Its been shit all pre season. Considering it cost us a final last year, not to mention 3-4 games through the season itself, I would have thought goalkicking - especially from set shots - would have been reasonably high on the pre season agenda to get right.

 

[Alyx]

[Brodie/Kyle/Matthew/Rory/Sam] scores a goal from a turnover.

I think I have covered their entire list.

 

[AdamMarrett]

It's not a worry how we've played today, means a hell of a lot more to Adelaide then us.Blind Freddy can tell Kenny is foxing this one as he hasn't made a move all day and the players are just coasting to get miles into the legs.None of this changes how we look for 2015.The only concern for me is the form of Impey,possibly Matty White and Schultz Aldo Westy.Those 3 are expierienced players so they'll just be getting runs into the legs.

D for your kind words

 

[Portress Hill]

Have I missed something, why is worsfold in a crow shirt?

analysing their coaching setup

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

Are premierships won in March?

 

[Port01]

not necessarily worried about losing, but going from 5.1 to 7.11 is the stuff that has cost us hugely in the last couple of years, so massively disappointed about that.

 

[RustyCage]

Kicks 142
Handballs 146

Hopefully today is the last time we see this crap style of play

 

[noddy]

I'm not. This is Walsh's first time to 'prove' that he can coach against Hinkley. He would have revved their players up to go at us hard.

What a loser. Walsh, you ******* suck.

Not to worry mate the Crows will ease up in the last quarter & the score will be a lot closer.

Oh thanks guys for our Phil.

Reckon White and Mitchell have made it easy for Hinkley to overlook them in round 1

Ahhhh it wouldn't be an early season game without the usual naysayers and negative Nancy's!

Never change peeps

If we're down at half time Round 1...
