wtf1.gifWhy hasn't anybody posted in here today??!........too many Crows supporters on this site me thinks! :)

Seriously though, one thing they have going for them (as Craigy said) is that it's only February.

On the other hand, Port have to maintain that thru the season proper.........I'm yet to be convinced :devil:

Port were way too good yesterday. The score actually flattered the Crows as I think they were gifted 3 goals by the umps. I'm not overly concerned except for the attitude and approach of the Crows to the game. As I said in my OP this is the Mickey Mouse Cup, it counts for 0. But well done to the Power as they needed to win given the current situation with both the PAMFC & Power.

Not sure who was missing from the Power line up as I was really only paying attention to their youngsters for DT & SC purposes but the Crows had Bock, Tippet, Scott Thompson & Porplyzia missing. Those 4 will make a difference to the team but if they approach any AFL game with the same attitude as yesterday then they will get flogged like they were yesterday.

But it is only February and I remain confident that it will be a good year for the hoops (depending upon injuries).

didn't see the game Dave, but I don't think Tredders and a few other seniors were out there.

I reckon it was more important for Port to win yesterday than the Crows given the current situation at Alberton.......a loss to the Crows will be swept under the rug and be referred to as a loss in a Mickey Mouse comp, but on the other hand, if Port lost yeasterday, the ramifications would've been far greater.

At the moment, Port needs to win regularly in any comp just to appease the supporters and the money men.

Very true. I must admit I'm a little shocked by the result although I didn't think the crows would piss it in either.

Huh!!!

Who are these people?

Where were they last year?

No Warren Gary, Mots or Broges (amongst others) and still able to manufacture watchable footy for the first time in over 12 mths!

Not to mention that 4 of 5 of our BOG's were part of the old brigade....again, where were they last year, lol?

I'm thinking Boak, Cloke & Carlile will be players to watch this year.

Not alot of my attention goes into this competition. Was good to see Port manufacture a decent win tho.

Just thought I'ld bump this thread and say GOOOO FREEEOOOOOO!! Was good to see them play well (has been a while). Looking forward to seeing how there new players go for the rest of the season seeing Barlow had 34 disposals and 2 goals in his AFL debut! Morabito and Silvagni also played well in there first game.

Ryan, I can see your mob doing great things this year if they can keep up that sort of intensity.

Their harrassment of the Adelaide boys was relentless....they can and will upset some top sides with that brand of footy.

Big question is, can they maintain that form interstate......history proves they are one of the worst travelling teams in the comp.

Crows fans....still too early to judge IMHO.

I'm pretty sure most sides will have games they'd rather forget this year......how frequent that occurs is the key.

I reckon Adelaide coaching staff will be studying that video all week...........and Port boys will do the same re the last quarter.

Crows just didnt play well, no excuses apart from having a couple out. They are capable of playing a far better quality of football, but isn't that the trick for the other 15 teams too :cool:

Pete, Port just cant shake that last quarter slump that has almost cost them plenty of games.

Pretty early days, can't really tell who has the early jump on the competition. Look out for the Hawks, Lions and Dogs. I have a feeling Crows will be sub par this year, not by much, but enough to see them out early in September again. Itll be a real shame because some of the older guys havent got long left.

There's a few tough ones this week:

Crows vs Sydney........AAMI - Adelaide.... BUT, will be close if Adelaide play like last week.

Eagles vs Port........Suby - West Coast (they're at home)

Bombers vs Freo.......Etihad - Bombers ( Freo might get cocky and don't travel well)

Hawks vs Cats......MCG - Hawks

Thoughts??

I don't know shit, so don't go by any of the above :worship:

those boys were trying to give me a coronary last night!!

Pies v Dees....should've been 100 points, NOT 1!!!!

Collingwood deserved to lose that no doubt...talk about injustice.

Kangas....bottom 3 material....maybe even bottom 2!

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
