Game Day NAB3: GCS vs Adelaide @ Metricon - 11 March 2016

[Stiffy_18]

Disappointing game from us so far. Too fumbly, getting smashed in the midfield with both contested possesions and particularly clearences.

Delivery inside 50 has been terrible but on the plus side we defended relatively well given that we are under some real pressure.

Midfield is getting smashed. Interesting that Hartigan has not played at all. Neither has Gore.

McGovern has looked better than in previous two games.

Uncharacteristic fumbly mistakes from players that are generally known as clean, one grab players (e.g. Sloane)

 

[BACCS]

People need to take this game with a grain of salt. Ball is slippery as hell and very hard to get the outside game going with clean skills.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Seed and CEY - two of my favourites - really putting their hand up.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Wonder if they've been told to stick with the gameplan regardless of the conditions. Might as well I guess. Would be nice to have some defensive runners and a captain who decided to turn up...

Mate, humid as **** and both teams are fumbling, typical GC conditions.

If the umpires are going to apply this 10 metre zone consistently like in Mackay's case, Gold Coast should have been penalised at least twice in the last two minutes there but nothing.

No kidding! It's another rule change that'll lead to nothing but inconsistent penalties.

Tex having a mare in a pre-season game... yeah, who gives a shit!

 

[Wright Away]

Good news is Atkins and Crouch are a good shot at a rnd 1 spot!

 

[pjcrows]

We were awful that half. Even tex wasnt good enough. Quite a few out there have put their spots back up for consideration.

They know the best 22. This is just practise. People take it way too seriously.

 

[BundyJack]

Could I have a score please

 

[footy4ever]

Play like shit. Still in front. How bad must gold coast be? LOL

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Yes. Gore and Hartigan haven't been on the ground for us yet

The Lucas Herbert treatment!

 

[Crowstar]

Bring the subs on

 

[VSTone]

will we see anything fair dinkum in the second half? just going through the motions in that half.

 

[Mike Smyth]

Midfield is very average. Going to be a long year if B Crouch doesn't find his best.

 

[CrowinNT]

Port ad on Fox... You should get a job in politics Kern

Just seen that. Really on a Crows game hell.

 

[Doctor B]

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Well be all good next half

 

[Southerntakeover]

Looked like the suckiest bunch of sucks to ever suck.

 

[Godallblighty]

Lol at Commentators pretending they know about SANFL recruits

LOL at Lynch talking about our great ball-carrying defenders...um, Brown, and ahh...Laird, and, oh yeah...Smith.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Shit greasy conditions really aren't helping...

The good:

Mrouch - Absolute ball magnet... Thommo Mk II
McGrovern - Like his attack on ball
CEY - looking solid
B Smith - welcome back to form
Seed - starting to show some skill
