Review Port Adelaide vs Crows - Trial Match 1 @ Alberton

[edgie]

Are we going to ignore the tackle is what caused this?

The tackle swung Keane into Sam's path in less than a second. Sam didn't change direction. He just stood there with his arms up.

But yeah, because it's Port he will get weeks.

This is the media commentary that will make it so:

Is it just me, or is there little to no better game plan from the last decade or so?

Hinckley is the constant. A spud.

Are we going to ignore the Rioli tackle that actually initiated this?

But yeah, because it's Port he will get weeks. s**t, they'll probably give Rioli a couple of weeks as an accomplice as well well.

This is typical of the the media commentary that will make it so:

He still went for a bump and hit him hard. Hes getting 2 or 3. The guy was already wrapped up it was stupid af.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

I guess I'm in the minority but SPP deserves weeks for sure. At least 3. It's a trial match, why is he charging shoulder first at a player who is already being tackled? Zero reason to do it, the fact that Rioli may have swung Keane into him means nothing.

Didn't need to do it, basically.

Lol you count em

news.com.au 'journalism' seems to now mostly consist of quoting randoms from twitter. Bravo!

 

[Festerz]

No Ralph- the tackle was already underway by Rioli. The momentum of Keane and that tackle propelling Keane into SPP who braced.

The timer in the slo mo footage you posted showed the tackle lasted less than a second in which time the whole position of Keanes body changes, turning a brace into what looks like an intended head high bump.

But because Brayshaw has retired this week due to long term concussion injuries, culminating in the hit from Brayden Maynard

That article is ridiculous lol. Just quoting deadshits on twitter. Extreme bias in the report from the 'journo' himself lol. Compare it Maynard reaction it's just a farce.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Everything in front of centre for 6 quarters was absolute trash. Could count the number of marks to a leading forward inside 50 on one hand. That’s depressing as hell of probably 60+ entries

Again. Jeez how many chances do they need to get it right.

 

[gbear]

Why so. Crom aren’t that great.

Have you seen who our coach is still. Seriously we go to ant when we play them.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Maybe another 2 years and it will finally click right?

I dunno, the player got slung into him but he also seemed to jump/brace himself. He should probably get games purely because the head needs to be protected, but throwing "piece of shit" into a headline is pretty ridiculous and an attempt to create outrage over what is the AFL media's news of the week with the Brayshaw situation.

Still don’t rate the Crom despite Hincks.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Scully might just be the smart leading forward we have been crying out for.

[pastmyprimus]

The wings worry me. I thought Burgoyne was ok but lacks a bit of polish. Wing isn't Boak's natural position. Bergman had a few good moments but didn't stand out.

 

[240volt]

Leading forwards in the AFL?
There’s some but not many in today’s game.
That was prevalent in the 80s and 90s.

Yep, that was my take away from the game, our forwards don't or are told not to makes leads. Another year of bombing it to the top of the square.
