R7: Glenelg v Eagles - Friday 6 May @ Gliderol Stadium

[human_torpedo]

Cant speak for the quality as I was on the other side of the ground, but quantity was certainly in abundance!

25 if I counted correctly.

First time I've seen a night game at the Bay, seemed a bit dark, especially in the pockets.

25 if I counted correctly.

Almost as many as Eagles free kicks!

Really how many did Glenelg get
And how many frees were paid in front of snouts louts for the bay's

Actually that's where majority of the crowd was
How many did the SANFL day were there 6'000 lol

[therisingblues]

Yep, shouldn't happen, especially against a club coming off a bye.

As for the reserves sides, it was newsworthy the last time one of them had a 5 day break:

"Adelaide’s concern for its players comes from having its program undermined"

Never mind the other clubs in the comp.

Every time the Crows or Power experience any hardship the equal of what the heritage SANFL clubs. It makes headlines.

Micky, your comments are very ordinary.

[Pseudo]

Bays third quarter was excellent, despite being outscored. The lift in intensity and workrate was noticeable, and the tackling was ferocious. Good to watch.

Credit where credit is due: In the final term, Lachy McGregor's spoil, collecting the loose ball and goaling was frickin' brilliant. Shame he couldn't do that for the Bays...

[Spargo]

Hybrids supporters bleating about umpiring - comedy gold.

[Mickyj]

Micky, your comments are very ordinary.

Why because I said the bay's had greatly improved
But pace alone doesn't win enough games
Or too many dancing girls to bring in the fans
Or your announcer sounding like the bay's had the game won at 3/4 time then sounding disappointed after they lost

Eagles weren't great but they won that's the difference Eagles win
Does this loss mean less fans next game at the bay's home
And you can't say anything about the Eagles fans Eagles don't have many
What the Eagles do that the bay's haven't done for awhile is win more games
Friday's night game wasn't great but a win is better than a loss

So explain what have I said wrong
Umpiring decisions whoopy do

Yep McGregor spot on
And Raymond
Both ex Glenelg players see what left Glenelg
And Lewis was injured another ex Glenelg player

Two have won flags after leaving Glenelg

Good player that Lachy McGregor...

[goddy11]

How good would Lachy McGregor have been at Langhorne Creek?

[Itchy Tiger]

You are just a broken record looking for bites. It doesn't take Einstein to work out the Hybrids have been a good team recently. Let's set the record straight re your so called ex Glenelg players. Lewis was cut from West, he left the Bay under Mickan's reign after not making the GF side. He then went to play country footy again and probably would still be there if Godden went to coach in Darwin, like he had signed to, before the Eagles gig came up. McGregor similar situation. Quit the Bays after the 2009 finals series again under Mickan. He only played 1 game that year, the losing final to Sturt. He then spent several seasons at Langhorne Creek, before Godden enticed him back. For what it's worth I reckon he's good enough to play AFL. Raymond only played a few junior games at the Bay, drafted to the Saints, on his return wet to the highest bidder. I hope you enjoyed the bite. There's similar stories at all clubs.

Well let's set the Lewis record straight or right .
I was sitting in seats at thebarton oval a few years back Lewis was there . All his past SANFL teams were raised to him .
Godden recommended him to South Adelaide before Godden was appointed Eagles coach .
South Adelaide was set to sign Lewis as a player when they appointed Ron Fuller as coach .
For some reason Ron Fuller said to Lewis he was to old to play for south Adelaide .
Before Godden signed Lewis he had to show he wanted to play SANFL footy . I watched him for weeks play seconds footy trial games before he got a contract .
Raymond was at the Saints returned to South Australia was going to Norwood they didn't want to pay the transfer fee to Glenelg I understand so the Eagles did .
Once again how am I a broken record
I said Glenelg have improved are you saying they haven't
What I watched last night was a far better Glenelg side they ran out of steam at 3/4 time or the Eagles finally arrived and started to play

Once again what have I said wrong
A Glenelg were the better team for three quarters
B Eagles back line had huge errors
C forward line went missing for 3 quarters
D Eagles ruck men won the taps but Glenelg took the ball away
E Glenelg blocked the Eagles run going forward for three quarters

Ok what have I said wrong

You guys are going to love going to Prospect with the Announcer they have. They think they are only talking to North Fans, only read out North Goal kickers and when reading the Stats we lead this area by this any.

Absolute disgrace, but as stated they are employed by the home club so can do what they like.

Nothing wrong with any of that.

In North's defense there was only 20 Glenelg supporters there.

[Magellan]

The announcer was prepared to read out Glenelg's best players but no one could find any.

[PatowalongaPirate]

I watched Glenelg beat my mob by plenty a month ago and thought:
Wow they have really improved.........
Well, I was wrong...........
Glenelg........... Always The Great Pretender!!!!!

Spot on wolfy. You can't judge a team's form on how much they belt west by.

[am Bays]

Tried hard but didn't get the chocolates.

Boys having a crack but lack the polish and poise of the better teams.

Good to see Godsy and Jacko in the club-rooms after the game.

Some things never change on here, Eagles fans all-over the interweb footy boards after a win....
