TALBO Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I missed the big game today but must admit I picked Geelong and was a little surprised to see them lose. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/266313-footy/page/15/#findComment-4697305 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLED Posted July 5, 2009 Author Share Posted July 5, 2009 yeah the bigt test for crows is coming, next four weeks: Fremantle, St Kilda, Port, Geelong.getting to the pointy end now! Freo shoulder be penned in as a win (even though they gave Carlton a hard time) and maybe even Port, but the other 2 are definitely gonna be tough. Geelong IMHO needed to lose today and possibly did themselves a favour, on the other hand, I reckon Saints will go into finals less prepared than the Cats next time. I picked the Saints today but if they face off in the finals again, I'll pick the Cats next time.

Unfortunatly i agree with you...We almost need a loss to give us some fight and anger again, though yesterday there was quite a bit there. Twas a great game though and alot could be taken out of it from both clubs Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/266313-footy/page/15/#findComment-4697987 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked the Saints today but if they face off in the finals again, I'll pick the Cats next time. Agreed, the old stigma of coming into finals undefeated "you gotta lose sometime!". Geelong will probably spend the whole week reviewing and improving on where they went wrong, and will probably be better prepared for the next time they play the saints. Port and Crows will be a cracker IMO, Port have an outstanding home run this year, and Crows who are on quite a streak! Be a good game to watch, whos home game is it? Freo can have an automatic win against Adelaide as long as they get rid of that f**king yellow strip, its f**king horrid.

Be a good game to watch, whos home game is it?Freo can have an automatic win against Adelaide as long as they get rid of that f**king yellow strip, its f**king horrid. The next Showdown will be a Crows' home game. Carlton wore a yellow guernsey against Freo yesterday in support of cancer research by the Cancer Foundation. Is that the top you are referring to? Is was pretty awful but it was for a good cause (all the players signed their tops and they were/will be sold as a fund raiser. And as a Crows' supporter we never give away an automatic win. Adelaide has never won less than 8 games in a season. It is the equivalent of Liverpool or Man United but on a much smaller scale and within the confines of the AFL (salary cap, drafts etc to equalise the clubs). It is an AFL superclub.

SLED Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 LOL at the AFL tribunal!!!!!!!! Barry Hall: Intentional punch to the Truck's face (with a shocking record of offences) = 2 weeks suspension. Jarrad Brennan: Headbutts Carr (Carr's head split open and had to leave the field) = 1 week suspension. Troy Chaplin: Eyes on the ball, leaping to spoil, clash of players (other player got straight up and continued with the game unhurt) = 2 weeks suspension. Should've, would've, could've been: Barry HAll: 6 weeks Jarrad Brennan: 6 - 8 weeks Troy Chaplin: Pat on the back by the coach for courage. If that umpire is at the next Showdown, I'll jump the fence, LOL.

SLED Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 yeah, good onya Baz (considering Swans & Port are the last 2 teams to challenge for a spot in September) nice way to leave your teams mates in the lurch..........no self control, constantly letting his team mates down by sitting in the stands for most of the season.......dude must be Bi-Polar!! Me thinks the coach & board gave him a little bit of a push just so they can have a settled side for the second 1/2 of the minor round........imagine if he pulled this shizz in Sept??!!

writeoff Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) LOL at the AFL tribunal!!!!!!!!Barry Hall: Intentional punch to the Truck's face (with a shocking record of offences) = 2 weeks suspension. Should have been more but irrelevant now...unless he plays for another club next season. Does the suspension carry over then? Jarrad Brennan: Headbutts Carr (Carr's head split open and had to leave the field) = 1 week suspension. Was given 3 weeks, 1 week reduced for guilty plea, 1 week further reduced for good record for last 5 years. Still should be out for 3 weeks. Troy Chaplin: Eyes on the ball, leaping to spoil, clash of players (other player got straight up and continued with the game unhurt) = 2 weeks suspension. Rich played very little in the 4th quarter and had minimal impact. Was clear effected by the collision. TV didn't show at what point Chaplin left the ground and he was never going to make the contest. Too bad. He was playing pretty well too. If that umpire is at the next Showdown, I'll jump the fence, LOL. I have quoted you on this. I expect a member of the SAUSA board to be true to their word!

Boof Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Must say i've watched a few port games this year (not a supporter mind you) and that was probably THE worst i've ever seen them play! Melbourne have a pretty decent lineup (been saying that all year as well with many a sAfrican American and laugh) that is very young and still making silly decisions but will be very good in the next few years. Crows showed how to play the bottom of the ladder team and deservedly so thrashed them. Hawthorn had no right to win that game either they were shocking and we knocked the eagles off in perth...Not getting to carried away now just waiting till sept when it all starts again and the home and away rounds mean nothing. So is the top 8 pretty well set now? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/266313-footy/page/15/#findComment-4710999 Share on other sites More sharing options...
