Expand From the umpires, many obvious and a few criticals as far as the 'crowd pleasers' were concerned. Kept the Crows in the game. Cost us dearly all through the game. Oliver, Tracca and Langdon superb. Harmes much better, as well. Missed Salem's cleaning-up when the ball came to the ground. Jackson is a gun and plays better each week. Great exhibition in the ruck and around the ground tonight. 4 Quote

Cassiew 1,903 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Kinda conflicted. Know it was a loss we had to had, but would much rather it have been against a top team like Bulldogs, than a dud team like Adelaide. I hope this is a serious wake up call to not get too confident. Maybe they’ll take the next game more seriously. I’m worried that we had a pretty good team even though Salem wasn’t playing. Sad ? 2 Quote
drdrake 3,203 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Just to many passengers today, the forward line was terrible. We just panicked fumbled and we're out worked. Quote

leave it to deever 17,618 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Not too fussed if Sam W leaves our club. He played with little intensity today when we really needed him to contribute. I guess they had to role the dice but sadly Bbb would have been the better option. Melksham is not a goid pkayer either. Crows defence was excellent tonight. I argued our middield srocjs were low with Jack V out but I got howled down. Its always two weeks out with Viney which always turns into six. Hunt is back to his old self. Tommy had a shocker and Jwtta isnt up to it anymore. We looked tired as well. It was always going to be tough but made worst by the shocking non decisuons at the end. Take a bow umps you won a game for the crows or at keast caused a draw. So unprofessional. Its exactly what was discussed last week in umpires being swayed by home crowds. Spineless boofheads. 4 Quote

Die Hard Demon 1,224 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 There is no integrity in the AFL. For those umps to not pay those 2 frees near the end really makes you question the professionalism of this competition. If that was a final.. It would be catastrophic. It makes it really hard to unconditionally love our game. 12 Quote
Purple77 1,025 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 I hope the ladder position of the crows isn't dwelled on... 16th or not, they played a great brand on the day. It's just unfortunate they did it against us (noting full well they would have pumped themselves up to "take it the top of the ladder Dees") 3 1 Quote

Mickey 4,777 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 We lost because too many went against exactly what we've brought all year - selflessness and sacrificing your game for the good of the team. Too many trying to be the hero. Too many trying to get the easy kick. Fritta's non-goal just summed up a [censored] day at the office. 10 2 Quote

JJ Haydos 46 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Salem sorely missed. In for Jetta next week. BBB in for Weids. Viney in for JJ. Bombing it into fwd 50 didn't let TMac, BF and Weids to get into the game at all. Well played Adelaide. Hungrier when it counted. Umpiring late in the game was deplorable. 1 Quote

JJJ 1,348 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Our connection to the forward line is pretty bad still and also impacts our ability to maintain pressure once the ball hits the deck. Although I think our effort level was poor for 60% of the game which compounded our poor delivery. A few blokes won’t enjoy the loss review during the week. 1 Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Some reasons we lost: Gawn dropping regulation marks and palming it into open goals May getting done over by a big eared inbred bogan Trac and Harmes playing like millionaires Jetta is done. Hunt is only good when Salem is covering his [censored]. Weideman and Fritsch actual liabilities JJ nervous with ball in hand Poor defensive effort all over the ground in the first half. Lazy, unaccountable football allowing Adelaide to run down the corridor unaccounted and kick easy goals from clearances Turnovers. Cannot hit the side of a barn. Reasons why we didn’t lose by more: Oliver Lever Langdon Jackson in the ruck 5 Quote

Maldonboy38 6,435 Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Lots of frustrating cameos tonight. If only Jackson could mark. He gets to so many contests, and his hands are first to the ball. But he just can't clunk them...yet. Jordon's kicking is becoming a real worry. For a bloke who is playing so well he consistently produces howlers. Fritsch and his kicking... Max in many dumb moments. And our basic skills - marking, handballing, kicking, and general ball handling was torturous to watch. But our main problem is our midfield. The number of times they waltzed through the corridor in numbers, especially with one running ahead of the play, was infuriating. Quote
