AFL - Round 1 discussion - (and live scores)

[Johno6]

I picked bombers in mine. Also picked eagles but not confident at all.

[the joker]

Crows couldn't play any worst and its only round 1. Dangerfield and Thompson both played there worst games for at least 18 months.
Long time to round 2 to get a win though. And the sliding rule disgrace

Still there worst game though? He didn't say the bombers played bad on them. Just stating the fact they played bad games

[kickinit]

They didn't play bad games, there defenders just stopped them from having any impact.

Hocking was fantastic tonight, Dangerfield had plenty of it in the first few minutes, credit to Hirdy for makng the move so early.

Yeh was a great move. Was very impressed with the new kid Kommer, didn't look like it was his first afl game

If Hird is so clever why didnt he start Hocking od Dangerfield then?
Did he get taken by surprise at what a good player danger is?

I agree there, he would be most coaches first choice to shut down I would have thought. Almost the second Hocking did go to him the game changed, Crows looked a different side, indirect and slow. Couldn't tell from TV if it was structure or pressure from Bombers. The lad on Walker killed him I thought and Fletcher is going to be a gun for you guys when he matures and slows down if you just started watching the game or the first time last night you could be excused or thinking he is a really old looking young guy, so much respect for the guy!

I give credit to the bombers for there disposal efficiency, they were great in that aspect and the crows looked like they could use another trial before the season. And for Sam Jacobs to dominate the hit outs and that not correlate in to clearances was disappointing. There were rumors going round all day that danger has the flu and may not play, well he played like he had the flu.

Do bombers supporters also hate the stop start if there season
Nab game, week off, round 1 week off.
While the other sides get a week off and then straight in to it?

[Sky Pilot]

The whole AFL program is shambolic

[Squids]

Carltons forward line is better than the Crows!

he didn't have the flu hocking ripped him a new one. Even sanderson said it at 3qtr time that they where killing him.

[Squids]

Do the crows players not like Sloane? Why don't they go help him out when he gets thrown around like a rag doll. One of the few crows players that was alright last night in my opinion.

Ah the old Glenelg Flu has found it's way to the Blackbirds. No Danger was still running hard in the last quarter, the guy is an absolute tank. However, every time he got near the ball he was being absolutley smashed by multiple Essendon players it was quite deliberate and quite effective. In our glory days Cameron Ling, Matty Scarlett and Max Rooke were on hand to protect Selwood, Ablett and Bartel. The Crows could do with a Maxxy Rooke right now but I don't see any real mongrels in the lineup. The Crows have lashings of skill but not enough grunt. If you can limit Dangerfield there aren't too many others to get the hard ball. Expect to see more of this as the seson unfolds.

After 2011 not a lot of thought was being put into Adelaide but after your brilliant year last year you will be hunted a lot more than in previous seasons. Sanderson needs to develop more clearance and forward target options.

Bloody good footballer Sloane but blotted his copybook with that missed goal last night. He always runs himself to a standstill that lad and he 's one I really rate.
