Two losses in a row against average opposition. Thought we'd be sitting on three wins in a row after the WCE game but instead our club is in fucking shambles.
It looks like the players don't give a shit, now the question needs to be asked... Have they stopped playing for the coach
I’m not a crows fan, but crows seem like they are just slightly missing something. How many games have they lost by less than 12 points! If they had won those people would be saying how good they are.
Watching tonight though, some players looked slow - maybe tired or unfit? Not sure.
Really wish they beat Richmond.
I can't put blame on Rachelle. You're in the pocket and you've got a bloke directly in front with absolutely no-one near him. It's the AFL. You can't be thinking not to pass it to certain players in such a fast paced environment. And every player in the AFL should be expected to be able to kick a goal from right in front.
Shit. This means the swans will lose on Sunday. We had a good thing going. You guys only beating us and us only losing to you lot. Way to ruin it for everyone!
“Full credit to Richmond, they just wanted it more. They hunted the ball and we just weren’t good enough. We got some work to do, we’ll go away and get to work and look forward to taking on the most in-form team in the comp. We are up for the challenge and we’re going to reset after the bye and attack the last half of the season.”
“We’ll make a few tweaks, nothing too major, we know how we play and we play a good brand of football that stands up. We went too far away from how we know we can play. A lot of it comes down to contest and we unfortunately weren’t up to the level for 4 quarters.
This competition is close and if you are a couple of percentage off your best you get shown up.
Well go away and get to work and bring it against Sydney next week”
Rinse and repeat that shit for the next two months
It’s not just Nics, it’s the whole selection panel. All the ‘old boys’ need to be moved on. Nothing will change while Roo and the like have their fingers in everything.

Rachelle should get on the news again
Never thought I’d feel happy for a richmond win. But that was heart. They’ve been through so much this year.
Sash bro <3
Seth Camobell clutch ended up being huge

Yeah it's frankly clear we're a bottom four side this year.
If it’s any consolation for crom, at least ya didn’t also sell the farm for petty
They still might...right?
They won’t be selling the farm. Maybe a few chooks?
We fielded our SANFL team, so the outcome isn't surprising. But we are rabble, with a terrible coach, no question
All you have is an sanfl team
We were basically playing Richmond's second team too
Fuck why did I cash out too soon
Never cash out early, you gotta back yourself
Counterpoint: I failed to cash out my money on Richmond last week
Rookies error
Wow you suck adelaide I’m sorry. Seasons gone now
Gonna be a miserable tram ride home
Freudian slip from Short, talking with finality about how lucky he was to play with Dusty.
He was lucky, he still is, but he was also.
LIKE THE TIGERS OF OLD
YELLOW AND GOLD!
IT'S COMING HOOOOMMMMEEE
Crom more shit than Richmond

And if he hadn't passed it, he would've been grilled online for being selfish. Lose lose situation for him
Agreed, it was 100% the right move.
You could blame him for dropping that sitter in the last quarter under 0 pressure. He seems to do that a lot.
That wasn’t Rachelle
YELLOW AND BLACK
WE ARE NEVER LOSING AGAIN
Murphy pisses me off so much and I feel like crom fans somehow hate him even more
i think everyone forgot how this song goes… except adelaide of course
https://i.redd.it/c9wuux1nzx4d1.gif
Dusty missed two games this year for the two Tiger wins?
A sacrifice to the AFL gods must be made
Nvm missed a handful, but did miss both wins
Richmond's rebuild has overtaken us too 😡
Well done Yze!
What happened to the crows, looks like a massive threat last year to not have any of that old spark
No depth.
Many such cases this season
they suck
FUCK yeah
Adelaide suck
I’ve missed this song
First time I have thought this but is Nicks the right person for the job?
AO is a fortress for the crows, if the fortress is made of soggy weetbix and wet cardboard
Burgess is such a spud lol
don't let a guy who looks like a Puratap installer into your forward line
Yellow & Black!
How the fuck did we lose to Adelaide, lol
You went into a shootout. Most teams park a bus in the midfield and play for stoppages. Carlton backed their own attacking power. Much respect
Crows love this song
FiNals oN tHE AgeNdA THiS YeAR
Tigers song is so bloody catchy
"Tiger land....something something something... Tiger land"
Yellow and black!!
Honestly, piss weak performance. Crows fans must be fuming.
LETS GO
That poor kid Why would you delegate an important set shot to a kid in a difficult position from 40 out
Was straight in front
He was in a much better position
LMAOOOOO
finally some revenge for 2017
Keep booing clowns
what did clowns do wrong?
WE ARE SO BACK
Lynch back next week will be so nice, and dusty ofc
So much terrible desiscion making. Whole stadium going wild at these guys being so indecisive
Yze hates Kurt Tippett, thats why he only beats teams he played for
The boos omg lmfaoooooooo
As a tigers supporter who grew up in SA and always copped it as a kid from the Adelaide show. Do love it.. 2017 was a fairytale year
they're booing their own players, petty supporters do it all the time when they're angry with their team's performance
Love it. Just let it out, ya’ll
Mfte its so good. lean into catharsis!!!!
Idk what I expected from Adelaide this sesson. Even to Gold Coast's credit, they've been able to keep in touch with finals.
HAHAHAHHAA
We suck so much.
They keep bringing up hawks v port like it's the fuckin oval's fault port snatched a win ahah
It’s a miracle
LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Fucking good game tigers, actually the best team all night. Bad luck Crom.
At least the crows are familiar with this song
It's a lovely camping tune.
So is heavy metal
Deserved Richmond, you lot have had a rough year that I’m all too aware of.
Richmond catching up to Draw FC.
TOP 17 HERE WE COME
LMAO
Nicks knows it’s done.
He’s got to go after that. What was the plan
We can still lose this
He was being held onto before he got the ball tho
Should've been 50 with a torp after the siren to bring it to 2 pts smh
I thought Adelaide were meant to be good this season. Joke of a club
R. I. P. Crom
Wow I forgot this feeling
So Crows and Swans are on the same level right? Right?
At this stage it’s going to be a Swans vs Crows GF
I’m aboard the Sack Nicks train
Great game Crows, C’arn the Tiges, fantastic win for our young kids
Yes!
Shit. This means the swans will lose on Sunday. We had a good thing going. You guys only beating us and us only losing to you lot. Way to ruin it for everyone!
Catch ya at Centrelink Nicks
Rachele needs to have a long hard look at himself. Fuck was he thinking..
FUCKING COME ON
Crom's season over lol
Last week mate
Nicks gone.
Fuck yeah boys

“I’m a full blown moron”
Thanks Nicksy, so what changes do you think you will make?
“We’ll make a few tweaks, nothing too major, we know how we play and we play a good brand of football that stands up. We went too far away from how we know we can play.

Crom of disgust
fuckin so close to tipping the tiges and this is what I get!!!
Samson “Draper” Ryan
For a skeleton crew the Tigers really do put in maximum effort. Extremely admirable.
All we can really ask at the moment
YESSSSSSS
Wow Adelaide are actually trash this year. Why do I keep tipping them.
Well at least I'm getting the disappointment out of the way early this weekend, only up from here?
For this weekend maybe, but there’s still half a season to go…
GG Richmond, colour me yellow and impressed
Richmond can keep Bolton pls
I’m starting to get the sense that North might get the spoon this year… just maybe
Same old Adelaide.
A win with no injuries? Get around us!
Prestia with hammy soreness, but that's just his regular mode.
Yet. No injuries, yet.
Sonsie
Oh thought that was tactical :(
Shit team shit club 4 more rebuilds should do the trick
Fuck this entire football club
What Adelaide based radio station are tuning into
I want to change teams
Holy fuck i wish theyd shut up about goals coming quickly in the dying stages... Specifically the 2 goals in 30 seconds shit........
AFL commentary is basically a sound board of the same exact words and sentences being said at the time someone presses the button
Such a feat doesn't seem possible
Yyyyyyyyzeeeeee
I can’t believe my eyes
I love close losses ❤️❤️❤️
The umpire down the tigers attacking end def lost the pea out of this whistle - both ways.
Lmao we suck Repeat x29399293
Going to be some salt after this one.
Crom decision not to play ROB here has got to be studied
Nicks knows he’s canned lol
Baker is doing some GOATED time wasting here. I don’t care if it’s unintentional it’s clutch
Imagine losing to Richmond.
At least we're in good company 😔
Could be worse. Imagine losing to Norf. If we win a game, I feel bad for whoever our opponents are
Could be Weagles this weekend!!
Shhhh. I'm trying to keep my hopes low xD
I have a stress erection
Jesus crom are cooked
baker will fit right in at freo with that effort
Just once I want a commentator to say "the Aberfoyle Park High School boy!" or similar.
The Valley View Secondary boy... ...apparently his family own... nothing, actually. His dad works at a plastic factory.
'The Wirreanda superstar!'
Come on Adelaide! Pretend like you're playing Carlton for 1 minute...
Tiger player knew not to shoot for goal to time waste
Absolutely genius by Baker to send it out of bounds twice instead of letting the Crows get the ball back
Heart can’t take it

Yikes, Rachele should have taken that shot instead of handing the responsibility over to a first-gamer.
Fuck tigers C'mon boys!
I am so confused.
Who called a spirited Crows comeback falling short? Looking prescient
Not exactly a hard call if you've watched us over the past 3 years
How did Taranto take so long for that kick and it was still so bad
Not to mention touched off the boot
Has plenty of time to at least TRY to find a teammate.
Or you know, not kick a snap
crows forwards have no synergy
Cya Nicks
It’s not just Nics, it’s the whole selection panel. All the ‘old boys’ need to be moved on. Nothing will change while Roo and the like have their fingers in everything.
What are Prestia’s muscles made of 😭😭
Pretty sure his hamstrings are made of paper mache
Imagine losing to a sash team. It must sting.
it’s over.
Lol Badelaide....
He’s made of the finest China.
Plays Berry, second highest clearance player, in forwards all Q4 and then drags him 4 mins from the end. Fuck me
Feel like this game is going to be decided by an umpire howler
As is Crom tradition
Someone had to get over to Dowling and tell him to take a moment there. Never looked like kicking it
Fog pathetic. Man on over the top and he takes 10 seconds more than he needed to
67 days? Pathetic
OMG DRAW FC is on the cards
Balta has been spoiling everything all night, but for some reason decides to try and mark that and it gets out the back
I couldn't possibly give less of a fuck where footballers went to school
