We're not on free-to-air TV. However, afl.com.au do provide a live feed.
Welcome back Matt Owies.
Who else has come to play,?
Cottrell has some tricks...
Scores please, I’m at Katherine Gorge in NT with a solid 3G signal but can’t get the afl app to load… 🤦🏼♂️
19-16 our way ..goal to Fogarty after he took a screamer over McGovern.
16 v 19 at qtime 😳
We still haven't learnt to kick to the forwards advantage
16 v 8 clearances 😳
Good solid start - Crows have come out firing but we have stuck at it. Nothing fancy just solid
Tough game, Crows have come to play and the conditions suit their scrimmage bang it on the boot style.
Appreciated guys, keep it coming 👍🏼
Fogarty playing ?
So sos didn’t make the sub ?
Did sos play in the twos ?
Crows Fogarty, SOs is sub
Curnow 2 goals..
Goal Crows..Murphy..
Rubbish game standard wise, we are being dragged down to their level.
We are lacking numbers around the contest. Seems we are missing George Hewett alot at this stage. Fisher has been very quiet so far
Our all too frequent 2nd qtr lapse.
Getting smashed around the packs....
NO SYSTEM
JUST BOMBING IT
Walker for some reason worries Weitering...
Need to stop putting our defence under so much pressure midfield needs to lift... enter Cripps and Walsh right now.
Mark this down as a L
Failing the test
And if not for favourable umpiring (for once) and there poor kicking there should be 4-5 goals up.
Big goal McKay
Cripps starting to warm into the contest
Jack Silvagni is on
Defence has been under enormous pressure all quarter and held up well.
Think we can come strong and win this, Crows are strong at the ball but their field kicking is terrible.
Smith has to be the worst kick in the comp.
What is it with crape 2nd qtrs lately.
Got a good 'invisible man' going.
2 touches to half time.....including 2 clangers. ::)
Terrible to watch. Lots of standing around watching the ball.
Very frustrating watching us play like this. No skill shown but mostly not much effort shown.
If Jacks on, who’s off…?
Any idea of little Durds injury?
Durdin off, with a shoulder. Popped in a tackle. Subbed out.
2 minutes later, Newman sliced his knee cap open on some studs....in a tackle.
1 minute later, Harry got hit in the ribs in a marking contest by Butts butt. Stayed down, possible ribs, but played on.
3 minutes, 3 players.
Harry still out there, Newman will be a tricky one as you can't stitch it as it will just tear. So will have to mummify him and hope for the best.
Replay showed his shoulder popping up (Gerard Healy, the physiotherapist) said it was either a sublaxation or a dislocation.
Slowmo replayed showed it popping up and him grabbing it immediately.
If this is a L.... that will be an accurate summary of the season😩
Waisting the footy is becoming a trend!
Down to 3 on the bench
newman officially out of the game, unable to put humpty dumpty together again.
Carlton caught napping again.
Hope that's not the headline tomorrow
Cerra, MK visit the Doctors
If we lose this and blame injuries we are kidding ourself. Haven’t come to play from the start.
We were losing before the injuries. No excuse.
H misses setshot from 10m
Injuries certainly won't be helping us now will they.
There are many reasons you can lose a game. Its not one, or the other, but both....and some......IF we end up losing.
Silvagni showing the selectors up to be fools.
Mckay shows he can't kick from the left side.
If I ever here Durds or Motlop miss Owies I will spew up
Pitto showing how much footy he has missed.
Two shots at goal have been shockers.
Owies dribble kick from 30 meters out on 45 angle
Harry tried a set shot banana from 15 meters out
Both missed.
Crows kicked two goals
Not working hard enough and certainly not smart enoghb
Rubbish tonight. They just want it more.
Pittonet and Cripps both weak on Walker...not good enough.
Being outmuscled....Jack to save the day...
Silvagni, super sub.
How far can we go if we make finals when one of our key forwards doesn’t have the confidence to nail a 15 metre out goal on a slight angle and reverts to a banana.
Should have been a gimme goal and effects the confidence of the whole team
F$%^ing McKay, go back to f$%%ing kicking school.
Pathetic, no leadership or composure
Why would you omit your hardest working and smartest players?
Should have played from the start
SOS with a much needed goal. Blues -9pts
Someone needs to lift and we need to do the small stuff properly
Just another game where we thought we would fifo and collect 4 pts
He'll be taking TDK's spot next week
Cripps got cleaned up big time, possible ribs.
Cripps is crap at kicking
Cripps silly there.
Should've handballed to doc who would've put it 10 rows back. Rather than 10m out from goal into the arms of the crows defender.
At least he appears ok.
Opportunities wasted
Jack has had 6 touches in less than 1/4.
TDK has had 3 touches in almost 3/4's
- 14 now
Pathetic
Saad has to be moved off Keays...
Making up the numbers in the finals
TDK has been poor, but that was BS. Got penalised for being too strong. That cost us a goal....and nearly 2.
Look slow
Too Tall? Lost our fastest player through injury.
....but mostly, not running hard enough for eachother.
Doc holding the ball lol.
Not sure how the ump called that a throw?!
Getting some BS calls and its killing our momentum.
Umps losing control of this game. Just guessing.
Its only 3 goals. With the firepower we have up forward, we can get that in 3 minutes.
Expect a 'finals on the line' rev up from Vossy at 3/4 time and a different team coming out in the last.
They are not playing hard enough. We will lose this game. And it’s going to be an ugly month ahead.
Crows are playing better but started to play into some form late in the third quarter for this first time in the match.
We look cooked, conditions not suited to fast scoring, hard from here.
Lots of passengers tonight, Pitto not close to it, Motlop struggling, Cottrell unsighted, Cerra quiet, tough to see a turnaround.
Hope you’re right but don’t see it. We are very fortunate to be as close as we are. They have been clearly the better team from the first bounce and unless there is a major shift we are Gonski.
Against a bottom team and have 30mins to show if we really deserve a final spot.
How many games have we won this year when we have played poorly for most of the game.
Look at last week. GI2C said we would lose that game during the 3rd(?) quarter. At the same time i said we'd win by 7 goals. It ended up being 6 goals, and they kicked the last.
Same against North. Even at halftime, people calling for sackings....10 goal win.
The boys can switch on and dominate. They have done it plenty of times. Lets hope its just 1 more.
Plenty of players are playing below what they can. So we've got another couple of gears to go.
Not sure the crows have any gears left.
High stakes quarter for this group
Thats 1.
When you lose against a bottom 4 side, it tells a story. It isn’t a great side we have come to play. Sure injuries, but a lack of wanting a win by the sound of things.
Remember what i said about umpires guessing??
F*** me.
Hope you enjoy the bush league next week mate.
Face palm free kick
Game over......
Gov would like that one back. :-[
Another guess!!!! Got a handball away
Might be held to our lowest score by a bottom 4 side 😳
Finals bound... NOT
Got our 1 back.
Only 2 goals.
Why am i the only one on here that believes we can do this??
Fair goal by Fogarty. That will win you goal of the week.
10m remaining
- 17
You end up where you deserve to end up - per Voss
Embarrassing
Yes you are. Every time we score, the Crows have a quick answer. This game is there to win, but it won’t happen for us.
Midfield has been overwhelmed today - Crows too tough too hungry
Plowman weak as p1ss. Played long enough and still costs us when we are under an sort of pressure.
Said it several times won’t ever been a decent team if he is still in it. Same with setterfield. Not up to it when it matters.
Kennedy just got knocked out!
Wish I shared your optimism, but ....
weak, selection screwed us. Plowman can stuff off.
23 points now. Thanks for coming.
Sack Voss
Hopefully Hewitt is back next week, because Kennedy will miss with concussion protocols after being cleanly knocked out.
Just making up numbers
-23
9min remaining
Not a hope in he;:&
Lost it on Thursday when we dropped the heart of the team.
P L O W M A N......
Umps have lost the plot.
No, I don't think he is the heart of the team.
29 points and getting worse.
Will be an interesting selection meeting this week.
Got stage fright again like against Geelong
Setterfield cottrell missed tackles goal
Even that free for Motlop.
I would've paid high tackle and a free for legging him before i would've paid a free for holding the ball there. Ridiculous!
Weak, spiritless and Plowman
16 - 23 frees believe it or not.
No excuses. We didn't come to play and got out played in every part of the field.
L
Oh well, so much to play for and this
Pathetic effort. As soon some body mentions the F word we check out.
Yep. How many times do we have to see the same thing. The bloke crumbles at any sort of pressure.
Same with setterfield. One paced plodder who is a decent 2nds player that’s it.
Player may have had holidays booked for September. Not unreasonable when you consider our past years.
At this rate, we'll defy the odds and find a way to miss finals
Atrocious
We seem to play better when our backs are against the wall.
Well Im not riding off them yet - but another game where small forwards had no impact
At least Carlton have mastered consistency.
Our disposal has been deplorable
Evened out as the first half we had a very good run. Second half was more there way so sh1t all game but didn’t help any side imo.
We have been crap. End of story.
Pitto back too early, horrible return.
For the record, i'm not blaming the umpires for the loss.
I'm just pointing out they are very much sub-standard.
My last comment was about a free which we got....and shouldn't have.
I've highlighted at least 3 where they have just flat-out guessed because they have been clearly wrong. I can't remember that much guessing in a game.....ever.
I think we've been outplayed....and even outcoached.
Saad has not been able to run....and his opponent has been able to punish him on the scoreboard.
Of all the players to lose, we lost our smallest, fastest, highest pressure player. On a day when players are down, and we've gone in tall, its hurt us. They've run rings around us because we haven't been able to run.
Losing rotations due to injuries hasn't helped that, but that has limited our chances of getting back in it, rather than explaining why we were behind to begin with.
Because we always kick it on top of the heads of our KF and are out numbered
Docherty has struggled recently.
McKay is pathetic when things don't go our way
Cripps was ceap tonight
5 goal drubbing by 15th, nice work.
Setterfield is finished. Delist
Crows put a lot of time and effort into Docherty and Saad, and it worked.
Block off that supply from half back and we can't transition into the forward line with any sort of method.
Plowman wound back the clock to 20/21. Delist
64 - 47 i50's
There's the game. Especially when at least 3 players get too cute around goals
Likely to win none of our remaining games. Any of them, which also includes the out after the first finals game. Mathematical possibility.
41 possessions to Cripps and 40 to Walsh and we still lose. Not good enough.
What a rotten performance when it mattered most.
Very poor effort against a committed but limited team that play kamikaze footy and will scrag in every contest and play on the limit of the rules. We just don’t have that mongrel mentality in enough of our players.
We look really slow across the ground tonight and really need Jack Martin back in the side as he can provide class and nous up forward. If he breaks down again too bad we need to at least try him.
Brisbane at Brisbane next - not sure what to make out of this one. Just seems we did not defend from the front and they rebounded much better and more numbers around the ball. We got outccouched here and Hewett is a huge loss.
If the coaching group need to look at different things by dropping Jack then I suggest change the small forward mix because it isn;t working imo
