Game Day R6: Crows v Hawks 2021 Tasmania

[GROTTO]

Crows to win in a close one
Walker to kick 3+
Bruest to kick 2+
McAdam & Thilthorpe anytime goal scorers
Crows to lead at quarter time
Seedsman and Keays 20+disposals
Mitchell & Laird 25+ disposals

simples

That must be paying a huge amount.

Ive got Tex 3+, McAdam 2+, TT ags, Breust 2+, Moore AGS paying $10

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Think we are a sneaky chance but need to start well. If we are down by 3+ goals at halftime we will fall away badly by full time.

Tex to kick 7

 

[hey shorty]

Would be huge for our development if we could win down there. It's not a place we won even when we were a good side.

Paying $32.50 only put $5 on. See how we go

 

[GROTTO]

This week will be the last of our "easiest" games we play.

We face, Giants, Power, Tigers and Demons.

Of course I would love us to win, but at the very least competitive losses and taking the game deep where we are a chance to win, would be great for the teams development.

 

[Murray2503]

For us to win we will need a fit Walker and some improved efforts from the likes of McAdam, Kelly, Brown, Hamill, Schoenberg, McPherson, ROB, Fogarty, Murphy, Rowe, McHenry.

Keys for them are Mitchell, O'meara, Worpel, Jiath, Hardwick, Impey, Wingard, Breust, Shiels, O'Brien, McEvoy. After those eleven players they drop off very quickly. Hawks by 28 points.

 

[John Who]

Me too. I don't like the structure and resultant lack of forward line pressure, but that's secondary to making the right decisions on getting games into inexperienced players. And canning injured seniors. Will be watching Tex closely though. Calves and older types are a bit of an issue.

I think the commentators last week made a mountain out of a molehill with Tex’s calf. He leapt like he never leapt before in that first quarter with the flying mark! He did fizzle out in the second half but his contributions were still significant. Though I’m very keen also to see how he pulls up this week.

Funny how if last year, Tex kicking 2 or 3 goals, would have been celebrated as a great outing. These last 2 weeks, the same goal stats make people talk about his calves instead..

Hawks have a 49-14-1 record at Launceston. Anyone for Sunday lunch?

That's the thing about injuries, you tweak them during games. He was lively in the first half but very different in the second. It's a concern, but he's trained, so might be ok.

 

[John Who]

Here are the ins and outs for this game:
IN: E.Himmelberg, R.Thilthorpe, J.Hately

OUT: B.Frampton, T.Lynch, N.Murray (all omitted); Berry (ankle)

I’m very happy with this selection. Stoked for all the young lads and hope they all grab their chances. This is what we absolutely need in a rebuild - kids grabbing chances.

And Berry

And Berry

Berry will be missed with his tackling pressure.

Yep.

Tasmania, Ballarat, Geelong are all venues you can usually pencil in as automatic losses, regardless of the ladder positions of the respective sides.

Outdoors I hope

 

[John Who]

A sign of a worthy player - being missed after only a handful of games! Probably a blessing to give him some rest, and allowing Hately to show us what he’s got.

 

[pjcrows]

Any chance the roof is closed?

Play this in Melbourne and I'd be picking us. Hawthorn's scoring ability is questionable. Tasmania makes it very difficult for a young group - I won't be tipping us but I think we're a chance if we can nullify their midfield.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Couldn’t ask for a better day down here. Starting off with a hearty breakfast at a superb cafe in Kings Meadows before looking to head to the Gorge for a bit, then to the ground

Crows by 22

You see that level of drop in performance in the majority of the players during a match though. If it’s a genuine concern, the signs should have been there from the first quarter, from the first leap/kick.

 

[ThePrideOf]

3 things
Tassie
Hawks
Clarkson

hawks by more than the current line! -10.5 is easy $$ unless we fluke something or the hawks just don’t show up for the game.

 

[GreyCrow]

We have only played at the ground 4 times.

Here are teams the last time we played at that ground (way back in 2010).

View attachment 1110979

David Mackay , Rory Sloane and Taylor Walker the last 2 standing with Taylor the only one on the ground

 

[GreyCrow]

Effort and consistency is what I want

Also Riley and Ronnie to play well

 

[GreyCrow]

Berry will be missed with his tackling pressure.

Berry much

 

[1970crow]

Outdoors I hope

It really is so stupid, do they think us morons? If the group is outside the only reason you're not with them is you can't complete the drills. What injury is there that you can't be outside but can do the same drills inside?

No you don't, that's bullshit.

Lynch is a red head.
