Game Day Round 9, 2024 - Adelaide vs Brisbane Lions

[Dalions]

Not to say you’re wrong but I’m not sure you can make that claim off two stats

We’ve won the same amount of games so maybe we’re just expending our energy in the non-red time of the first 3 quarters more while the crows are expending their energy more evenly over the entire quarter and the 4th

We’ve also had a miserable run with injuries which can’t help

The biggest difference I see this year is that we are missing our chances earlier in quarters.
Meaning the goals other teams are getting against us late are hurting us more because we have missed our chances.
Like last week where we kicked 9 straight points, lucky that GC weren’t good enough to make us pay.

Brain the sub.

Really hope Prior pulls his finger out. Shouldn’t be close to the seniors if we didn’t have 10 injuries

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Brain the sub.

What a weird decision. I thought someone said Fages didn't like making someone debut as the sub.

 

[Nunez]

Do not like this decision one bit. No player should debut as a sub if we can help it. Shit call.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Brain the sub.

Gee that’s a poor decision. Debuts as subs suck.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Prob trying to limit onfield inexperience.

This is disappointing. So much for "we don't make a debutant the sub". Has all the hallmarks of cold feet from match committee.

Cue up Prior being turned inside out by opponents who are faster, smarter and more skillful than him, multiple times, before quarter time

Yep, I'm really disappointed with it, Shadeau has been way better than Jaxon in every VFL game I have watched this season.

What a bloody let down if he doesn't get on till late in the 4th quarter.

 

[Nunez]

I hope we have a plan to bring him on early in the third.

[Darren Downunder]

I’m disappointed that Shadau is the sub too, but I’m keen to see how Prior goes. I thought he was pretty good last time he played seniors and was stiff to get dropped.

 

[brutus76]

Good luck Pinky!

 

[McIvor]

Pretty disappointing that the club has moved away from the mantra that debutants aren’t subs. Genuinely shite way to debut and really uncool by the club. Bad vibes now and see nothing but a loss for inviting unwanted karma.

Quick bet your life savings on Adelaide

Perfect situation subs on for Morris, goes down back and Zorko released up the ground? Straight swap for Prior?

 

[Mr Ripper]

Logan’s haircut is basically conceding the four points.

 

[M Malice]

Lllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiiioooooooooonnnnnnnnnsssssssss!

Perfect situation is we're up by 40 half way through the third and well on top, giving us the flexibility to sub Zorko.

Realistic situation, we sub him for either Morris or Prior as you said. Hopefully my scenario is correct!

Should hide it with a hat.

Shut up old timer. Get hip!!

 

[Jivlain]

Well Nicks is now going to be coaching sans pants

 

[Gadzorks]

With a family of 15 maybe shadeau is happy to have his run on debut closer to home.
