Adelaide Crows Reserves in SANFL

[Nige]

Will be interesting to see how Hendo affects Jaensch's scoring

I daresay negatively.

Or it frees him up more

I'll admit, as a Jaensch owner (thanks to Vinny >:() who could have picked Hurn... I'm fearing the worst so reacted pessimistically.  :P

TBAG how's Riley Knight coming along showing any kind of talent? averaged 144dt last year

[tbagrocks]

Porps just not getting any mention atm, could be taking a spot from Matty Wrignt or Brodie Martin if he cant cement a spot soon though. Looks like Eddie and Charlie have their positions granted. Real shame if he cant get back

Riley is a smooth midfielder, still very slight though but finds the footy, don't expect him till next season though

[tbagrocks]

Henderson went off in the first half with I believe some sort of lower leg injury, not serious I think

[TomK]

Gus Graham kicks the goal with 15 seconds left to give the Crows a 4 point win  ;D

[tbagrocks]

Yes great win! Matty Crouch with the 35 touches and 9 clearances and Tommy Lynch returns with 31

[kilbluff1985]

So do you think Brad will come straight in ?

So do you think Brad will come straight in ?

Given the game and where we now are at, yes I think Brad comes straight in. Expecting Lynch also to likely play, had a broken jaw so it wont be a fitness issue, Hendo maybe in doubt which is unfortunate but uncertain yet on fitness

Just have to have the best side possible now, cant have the Martins getting games over Brad Crouch or even Lyons who still needs to be backed in by getting three/four games un-subbed, just would really hate for this skilful lad to leave

Little Charlie also should be fit if they want to bring him straight back in. If the season is over which it basically is then Griggy and Lyons MUST get the games they need now, guys like that need to be played and allowed to show their capabilities

Utility Ricky Henderson will also face a fitness test this week. In his second SANFL game back from a broken ankle, Henderson suffered a corked thigh and watched the second half of Adelaide

[Jay]

Lairdy proving why the Crows should not have dropped him. 42 disposals, 13 marks and a goal today.

[tbagrocks]

My boy Lairdy ;D  and Sammy Kerridge continues to press again after two games back now, Matt Crouch to be unleashed next year?  Well Griggy, Kerridge and Lyons (If he stays) will need to have big pre-seasons to stop Bob (Brother of Brad)

To the match. Adelaide has been bundled out of the SANFL finals race after the Crows suffered a heartbreaking six-point defeat at the hands of Sturt.http://www.afc.com.au/news/2014-08-16/sturt-skittle-sanfl-crows

My boy Battersby with 28, Laird 42, Crouch 35 and Kerridge 26. Ellis-Yolman 24 continues to push for AFL Standard thanks mostly to spending 5 night a week with the Betts's and Jets (Cameron)  Jake Kelly 24 also is a hard nosed promising backman

[Vinny]

Hope Grigg gets an unsubbed run at it soon.

And look who was the Crows' highest vote getter in the Magarey Medal...

Griggy!

[Toga]

Go Griggy!

So who do you see from the Crows' SANFL team taking it to another level next year? Anyone looking like breaking into the team?
