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

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...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
