Grundy out for 2 weeks - croms favorites v Pies.

Ninthelaide looking better and better.

There's to much of a gap between the Crows best+worse.Sometimes this can be in 1 quuater.There still a way of top 8 contenders.I would trade off early draft picks for a ruckman+established midfielder

I would trade all their better players (like... um... 31yo Tex?) for bad players

Grundy out for 2 weeks - croms favorites v Pies.

Even with Grundy they would've been.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Uh oh the actual Big Texan vs the faux Big Texan. This one could be decided in the courts, home ground advantage Adelaide.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Come to think of it, where will they play that game? St Nic won't be granting exemptions for Covidwood players.

Last time Crows and Pies were simultaneously terrible was 1999/2000, I'm happy to bask in that rare situation for a bit.

a team who can't fill up 1/5th of their ground vs a team who trains on 1/5th of a ground. speaking of which i wonder if footy park still looks a desolate wasteland??

Indigenous Round seemed a lot more promoted this year for some reason.

Best result for the lols. Pushes crows back up the ladder again, away from the real elite talent in the draft, and cements Collingwood close to the bottom when they've given away their first pick

I went past footy park the other day. I couldn't decide what was worse.

The industrial wasteland or the communist style cement block housing.

How are Hawthorn claiming credit for Melbourne? Simon Goodwin went to Essendon to coach, then shifted to the Dees.
They'd be stretching for Leon Cameron at GWS as well, since he left after 2012, and wasn't there for 2008.

Im just reading it as Hawthorn being better than them all at one point, but now theyve all gone past Hawthorn except carlton who continues to wallow in mediocrity.

Croms v Woods to be played in Sydney if no exemption granted by SA Government.

As much as I despise Eddie and Collingwood at the moment, still have to barrack for them against the Crows.

I have found myself barracking for the Crows quite a lot this year.

Watching Collingwood lose is great and seeing the Crows delay the rebuild they need on the back of the likes of Walker, Sloane, Seedsman, Keays et al is perfect.

ANYONE against the crows.

They'll just stuff up the pick they get anyway.

They have already done that,lol.

 

[JimmyBC]

The Crows are going pretty much as I expected this year tbh they work hard & are well drilled, I think they'll dip soon & next year there's too many SANFL tier players to progress beyond a good effort type side.

I’m sure they will handle it bravely.

 

[240volt]

As much as I dislike the crows I would not be upset if they beat my most hated team West Coast.
Living in Perth I don’t think I can say there has been one west coast supporter I have liked.... there all big headed flogs.

 

[Grave Danger]

Nice of the AFL to arrange the Dreamtime game during our bye - it gives a certain board member of ours the chance to buddy up with Michael Long for the pre-match ceremonies.

 

[240volt]

I’m sure they will handle it bravely.

You might have missed it but bravely has been replaced now by Gallant both words basically have the same meaning...... Loser!!
