Dees and Tigers are moving in the right direction, finally. It only took a few years of wooden spoons and playing like a complete pile of shite, but they're on their way now. On the flip side the Crows have picked a great time to hit rock bottom and could end up with a spoon and SFA to go with it - although I think they'll manage to avoid it.

Awesome effort from Jack Riewoldt on the weekend, a 10 goal haul. Leading the Coleman in a team currently sitting 16th is a fair effort.

Well as good as it was to watch Freo thump Port it was an absolute tragedy to see Barlow go off with a broken leg and most prob out for Freo's finals run :-( Barlow is an absolute machine, he was currently sitting in the top 3 favourites for the brownlow medal in his first year of AFL football!!!

Completely f**king disgraceful. It's like they werent even trying / like they didnt give a shit. Running around casually. (Some players more than others)

True embarrassment. The crows are going to wipe the fkn floor with us next showdown

Yeah Deano, I'm thinking that if we don't win soon, that we will be battling West Coast for the wooden spoon.

Choco is pretty much dead man walking and his off the cuff statement in yesterday's paper was possibly intentional to help get him pushed out the door early so he can join his mate Sheeds up north.

If Choco has to go, he needs to go now so we can at least groom Ladley before they snap him up to GC.

IMO Melbourne and Essendon might have made the Crows look a little better than they actually are, so I wouldn't be too worried yet.

I must be psycho psychic!!! :)

until we know whether the final year of his contract was paid out by the club (cause Gordon Pickard didn't dip his hand in his pocket) then everything is speculation.......it seems at this stage that it was mutual.

Oh well, looks like Sheeds has a new assistant coming soon to Northern Sydney

not just an assistant but a pioneer for a new club........he's been at the helm and the brunt of the media for over a decade now so probably had a gutfull and wants to take start enjoying life a bit more with his many kids.

If he was pushed, then I'm sure that he was paid out for next year.....like I said, only time will tell

its pretty sad. not that i really care who coaches port, he was there for a long time and picked them up from a mediocre club to one that won a premiership. nothing anyone can say can take that away from him, as it proved he as a coach had what it takes - how does this years team compare to the premiership team?

Reminds me of the unceremonial way they dumped poor Cahill... least they gave choc the option of saving face and resiging.

and pete, if he goes to sydney and they beat port next season at the end of the ladder i daresay hes going to be a very happy chap

-D

But that is the nature of the business, everyone loves you when your winning, but i guarantee you, if Geelong loses 5 in a row, they will be calling for Thompsons head. Unfortunately it is not like the workplace where one would reward loyalty to the organisation, otherwise coaches would never bloody leave.

yeah. its a shame AFL such a brutal meritocracy but thats the nature of all pro level sports I suppose

Crows already did that this year (7 in a row)

having said that, it's like a total reversal of form between both SA teams from earlier in the year............gonna be a loooooooong season :(

Actually Pete the Crows beat Richmond in round 7 so they only lost 6 in a row. Crows will also regain Bock, McLeod, Knights, Burton & Mackay in the next couple of weeks. If they can find form and match fitness the Crows have a very slight chance of making the 8 but will more likely shape the ranking of the final 8 but ultimately miss out on September action.

IMO Choco was shoved out the door but is getting some payments (although it is rumoured to be less than his full contract). It will be interesting to see how the players respond. Historically clubs win the game immediately after a mid-season change of coach for often than not. However, the game against the WBD in Darwin (I think) will be a tough ask.

It's nice to see the Crows above the Power though. :P

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
