Review Showdown 56

[backtozero]

Winning the first one at AO was also very satisfying.

[Festerz]

Still got the green (it ain't teal) T-shirt from that game and it's now a couple of sizes too small for me. A reminder of good old days, in more than one way.

 

[PAFC Since 1870]

That is what self entitlement does to you.

100%

 

[Janey]

He has been called out in the media for preferring to celebrate with the crowd rather than his team mates

There’s plenty of players, crows or otherwise that do that, and I've always liked that our players seem to go to their teammates first.

Winning the first one at AO was also very satisfying.

That was my fave day at the footy ever.

That was my fave day at the footy ever.

Finishing the day with Spiderbait and You Am I sure helped!

You talk about any Showdown ranking and #1 is at the top of the list. It was Ali v Frazier 1, but the good guys won. An insane build up and match.

Yep no. 1 will always be top of the list, unless there's a Port v. Adelaide GF. Which talking about Adelaide being sooks, showed it's nothing new. I remember the siren going and singing our song. Wait, no I didn't, because they didn't play it. All class there. I remember by the time we got round to the second showdown they'd been shamed into playing opposition team songs at the concrete bowl and we had to listen to their Marine Corps rip off.

There was plenty of booing going on though after the final siren. Not by Port supporters though and not directed at Port players. There were the Adelaide 'fans' booing their own players (with a bit of spitting thrown in) their own players as they went down the race.

tl;dr - Adelaide have always been hypocritical sooks.

 

[RangaInTeal]

For me;

1 - Showdown 1
2 - Showdown 12
3 - Showdown 14
4 - Showdown 35
5 - Showdown 36
6 - Showdown 43
7 - Showdown 52
8 - Showdown 56

The decision you make is to not attack a contest so hard that you can't avoid knocking someone out. Unless you're Maynard then you can just end a bloke's career with no penalty.

Houston had full view of what was in front of him, he knew where Rankine was landing, he went in too hard.

And if he'd pulled out of the contest, he risked being accused of being a squib like Rachelle.

potentially in trouble for knocking off a Port supporters cap while walking through the players’ race at the end of the game.

 

[SC_Power]

Matt crouch reportedly assaulted a port supporter post showdown. Absolute grub!

Yeah, apparently Crouch knocked the guys cap off.

Talk about much ado over nothing.

 

[Brian McGee]

It’s hardly an assault… can you imagine going to the police over that?

 

[gbear]

Yeah, apparently Crouch knocked the guys cap off.

Talk about much ado over nothing.

The media is just funny. Stirring up shit.

[Powerade 08]

lol guy must have been going absolutely feral. Then complains to the police as well. Classic

 

[El_Scorcho]

Knocked a hat off, so basically nothing. You just knew when it was Matt Crouch

involved there'd be no damage done.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

What a massive over reach...


Calling Crouch a star that is.

Personally I think a lengthy stint in Yatala is what’s needed for Crouch

showed admirable restraint in only tipping the hat off his head.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

The most metres gained Matt has had all year.

Nice way for Crouch to cap off his evening.

 

[yepits2020]

If the person was touched, then its battery, is it not?

 

[Scodges]

Have a mate who has referred to us as weak dog campaigners over 50 times in the last 2 days I reckon ahahaha

He’d be an ex mate if it was me.
