Horrible game in Adelaide 

I’m enjoying it. Lots of turnovers and skill errors but it’s a fast close contested game. Pies off a short break. Let’s see if the Burgess effect gets Crows home in the last.

    Unfortunately Adelaide are about 6 goals short of not getting overrun in the last quarter.

    True. I dont mind a good low scoring scrap but this one for me is hard to watch. You wouldnt think they are two of the top teams going right now and bad kicking is just bad footy.

    Yet they can be outplayed for significant periods of matches by average to good sides. It’s odd. Crows kick straight and the Pies would be almost out of the match. 

    Exactly right. If you spend enough time in forward 50, with scoreboard relief (what Adelaide haven’t achieved enough), they start taking higher risks, but vigilance and trying to meet their pressure is everything. This quarter will be fascinating. Only 3 straight kicks down, knowing they’ve won 9 games of 11 coming from behind in the last quarter. Adelaide know this too!

    Nothing surer than Pies winning this. Adelaide just wasted this game away.

    Wow

    No free for the broken nose

    No blood rule

    And then pay deliberate when the ball is interfered with by the bleeding player and 2 trainers helping him off

    Wow, look out for the umpires in Adelaide

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
