Early days but the Saints are playing some good footy. Beat up on an ordinary side, but to keep the scoreboard ticking over with 22 majors was great to watch. After the uninspiring round 1 effort v the Pies it's nice to be in the hunt at 3-1.

I don't see what the issue is, yeah he's bit of a flog but come on we need a few characters in the game. Too many media trained robots getting about.

With how rubbish the Crows are they are really hard to hate at the moment, more pity them.

For that reason alone I love Rachele because he brings back a lot of hate to the Crows we all love to feel.

Whilst I think his a bit of a flog you just have to accept his going to be a superstar of the game so we better get use to seeing and hearing him.

I don’t think the Crows are as bad as people think and they will surprise a few teams. One thing I really noticed yesterday is how slow they are through the midfield with Sloane and Crouch together. They have recruited some forwards and defenders but probably need to get some younger mids in or perhaps they have and are just playing in the SANFL. The Sloane contract not looking great as he appears to be teetering on the edge of the cliff. Rachele is a beauty though and can’t understand the hate for him

I think Rachele confidence and love for a goal celebration rubs people up the wrong way...….I think its great.

Tend to agree the Crows aren't as bad as I and many others thought they would be at the start of the year.

I reckon they are one big bodied midfielder short along with lacking a tad of pace. At times this year they have just been 'bullied' at the stoppages.

There also probably a tall forward short. Fogarty isn't it.....Thilthopre has potential but seems to have upset someone at west lakes. Himmelberg is serviceable but don't see him reaching any great heights.

Rachelle at the moment is just an excitable, confident kid.
Flog potential is there, but it's when he's 22-23 and should be maturing that will show one way or the other.

Yeah that midfield speed is a worry without Seedsman in the side. Jones and McHenry were supposed to be that speed but it hasn't worked out that way.

I can't understand the Thilthorpe thing, why isn't he in the side?

Probably a bit stiff to get dropped but with the Zeppelin and Gollant performing well and throw Tex into the fray it's going to be pretty bloody hard to get back in there.

Gollant is a wonderful set shot from what I've seen.

To be fair, it seems it was AF bagging it, Stan and MW both in support of a bit of flair...

I’m all for women umpires but she is simply the worst umpire going around and not up to it.
Should be banned from umpiring Crows games too :)
