AFL Round 3 - 2023

F*ck on paper. Means dick.

He can f* ck off.

I hope he does but that trash served up tonight isn’t his fault, we should’ve flogged them

They stopped in the last after getting the lead. JHF 2 touches in the last.
I thought we’d lose by 30 after you got the lead

Did it last time too when Fredrick goaled and celebrated prematurely.

I thought we were rooted when Drew missed from straight in front

[Lightning McQueen]

That look on Hinkleys face suggests that could be his last game.

As anti-Ken as I am that would be a disgraceful and unprofessional decision to make, unless he chose to walk.

He can’t be blamed for that insipid effort, on paper we win by at least 5 goals, if you’re playing on ego alone it’s between the ears.

Rozee and Aliir x2 were the only two I thought had solid 4 quarter efforts, Houston, SPP and Chuck played very well in patches, many just went through the motions, Crows wanted it more and it showed.

I must say there is a lot to like about that forward line moving forward, I loved the look of Pedlar, just looks like he’s prepared to get his hands dirty and has a real 90’s footballer look about him, there is some serious other young talent to grow with him.

Rankine the stoppage king, the dude is a freak.

Well said bud, agree on all fronts.

Thought you might, I was sort of replying to you and whuffer at the same time, the Crows pressure was enormous.

And that folks, is the review.

More or less mate.

I'll be more thorough when not on my phone but the sentiment will remain.

[Lightning McQueen]

Oh well, now we can re-group and focus on winning our road trip to Sydney.

[Wedgie]

Called it two years ago, Criows are closer to flag than Port.

Neither side actually close but Crows are on the up, Port are on the slide.

Time to trade out the silver-ware

I'm closer to winning a 100m sprint at the olympics than my wife.
I'm not getting excited though.

3-zip for the Sainters. Very enjoyable win in front of 69K. Now to catch up on the showdown..

Game completely flipped when Rioli dropped a mark that wouldn’t even be juggled at 2am on a footy trip - Kick that and Port go back in front - Instead Rankine got a sniff and immediately impacted the rest of the game - He is a serious talent and worth every cent Adelaide pays for him.

[UK Fan]

Well played Crows.

EAD Port. 3 premierships in 5 years or something wasn’t it ??

Port remind me of that Chinese proverb: A strong steed can not be raised in shit.

Carr has already adjusted the chair

I know the game has changed but where was Ports aggression?
How about sticking up and flying the flag for a teammate.
Rozee got flattened in the 1st quarter(by Dawson?) and no one did anything!
Not even some push or shove.
I know the bump is dead but geez someone could at least of thrown one in.

Well done to the crows but I can’t see either of these teams winning too many games this season.

And if Ken is going at seasons end just do it now as the media scrutiny will only get worse with each game they lose.

From the game last bight in Adelaide, from what I saw is that the crows just had some much more run in them.

The forward line mix for the crows looked a out right last night. Thilthorp is a fantastic talent and simply must be in the crows side.

The balance was good, Rankine and Rachelle were good. Probably thr best game we have seen Rankine play in AFL and he showed his talent.

Cant fit Walker and Fogerty in the same side though. Clearly Ththorpe is the future.

Turned it off into the 2nd, didn't see much after that. Essendon must have come back a bit as the saints were easily on top early.

Regardless 3 - 0 and Ross the boss is back with a bang.

It's no longer the 90's - the PB's can't just start a fight to stop the oppositions momentum anymore.

I thought it was a head clash with Rozee?

[Brodlach]

How good was the bump on Max M and that he was able to play on in his third game


Both players just going for the ball

We levelled midway through the last but used up our petrol tickets getting back into it. The opening 15 minutes of footy was as bad as I’ve seen us play and we got it wrong at selection. GWS in Melbourne next week is our last chance to get a win for about a month or so

I get that but you can still throw your weight around.
It’s not quite netball yet.

My new defibrillator shook when I saw that!

Riolis bars looked thicker than the rest.
There's no way he's AFL fit.
