Probably enjoyed this one more than any other game in years. As soon as Rachele went the extremely early crow I was engaged. The houston bangdown and ensuing scuffle actually bought me alive.

Entire thing was so out of character for our little church mice.

The team woke up too.

Actually makes you realise how sanitized the game has become, not that i'm condoning shirtfronts but that type of physicality has gone.
 
Has anyone got a theory as to why Healy is such a Crows fanboi? I assume it's that rather than him hating us because he doesn't seem as bad when we play different opposition.
He would have hated being scheduled for an “interstate” game. Said at the start of the season he thought it unreasonable for commentators to travel & couldn’t understand why people were upset will remote calls.

healy he always has been a crow fan.

he has been a supporter of port in the past as well, mainly since adelaide oval move, loves the pre game "never tear us apart".

edit, he also likes freemantle
 
Yep.

Would you prefer MG, Dixon and Marshall or MG, Dixon and Ratugolea?
MG, Dixon and Ratugolea. Marshall and Dixon can't play in the same team, has been proven time and time again. Unfortunately Marshall will cost us a win in finals, as history has showed time and time again.
 
Kids will just not have the instinct to bump.

Or the instinct to prepare to be bumped.
We're already seeing it now in younger players.

Funnily enough, every crow fan I know reckons Healy is the most anti-Crow commentator around.

Maybe he just hates Port

He loves Fremantle becauae he used to get most of their home games in the early days of Fox Footy Channel the 2002-06 version.

Maybe 8 or 9 out of 11 Freo home games every season for those 5 seasons. It continued after that but maybe 5 or 6 games a season.

He was the All Oz selector who pushed hard for Pavlich to be named at full back despite never playing there, was a CHB and stopped Mal Michael ever winning an All Oz selection. He was the best FB in 2002. He also pushed hard for Pavlich over Tredders in 2005 and Tredders missed out all together despite statitically having as good a 2005 as his 2001-03 years and just a tick below his 2004 output.
 
If Thilthorpe did that in a basketball game he'd have left the game in an ambulance. Absolutely filthy and so, so dangerous.

If it had resulted in an Andrew Bogut type injury I think he'd have faced some tribunal scrutiny, but no doubt the AFL will ignore it.
I witnessed a Woodville player get tunnelled when going for a rebound in a basketball game against Sunbury in the SEABL comp back in the late 1980's.

As you suggest it's the filthiest thing a player can do to another in that game, and it's an unwritten law do it and cop the consequences, which were the the tunnelled bloke got up from the floor and smashed the Sunbury player with a right hook.

Said Sunbury bloke ended up with a broken jaw, lost 3 or 4 teeth, and did leave that game in an Ambulance.
 
Haha Rachele disabled comments on his latest post on Instagram last night and was copping it on other posts. Now comments are disabled on all of them.
Soft little bitch.
You get what you deserve. He is going to cop it at showdowns for years to come.
