I thought the Crows players were pathetic on Saturday. Craig had them structured well enough to get 5 goals in front. It's not like he then put on a Port jumper and starting kicking goals for the Power. Too many football fans are decades behind the modern AFL game.

if GCS are any chance against port i might chuck some money on it for the lols, but i reckon port could field a team of trainers & support staff and still win.

hawks are looking good, except they havent had a notable win *yet* so i'm reserving opinion till they play geelong,pies,bulldogs,adelaide,sydney. I think these are the genuine threat teams at this stage.

And im an Adelaide supporter, and would probably take the Crows out of the threat teams group! I think we still have a little way to go, top 8 definitely, but lets see just how deep we go come September

I was watching GCS play the demons on Sunday and they did alright for a team that has only played 3 games so far. They lost out in the midfield and when Gazza gets back this week i think they can well and truly cause an upset by beating the power. I am going to be definitely putting $10 behind them this week for the lols as the old man is a fanatic power fan :D

Hawthorn played Adelaide in round 1 and lost although it was a somewhat hollow victory for the Crows as they lost Porplyzia, Sloane, Mackay and Doughty for extended periods.

Adelaide's current injury list reads:

Ian Callinan (bicep) - indefinite

James Craig (hamstring) - 4 weeks

Phil Davis (shoulder) - 1-2 weeks

Michael Doughty (corked leg) - test

David Mackay (shoulder) - indefinite

Jason Porplyzia (shoulder) - indefinite

Sam Shaw (hamstring) - 1-2 weeks

Rory Sloane (thumb/jaw) - 2-3 weeks

Scott Stevens (ill) - test

Daniel Talia (achilles) - 2-3 weeks

Luke Thompson (ankle) - test

+ Jared Petrenko was seen walking around in a moon boot and was to get scans on his ankle today.

I wouldn't be backing the Crows against many opponents atm.

At this stage I rate the teams as such:

Collingwood

Geelong, WBD, Hawks

Freo, Sydney

Carlton, Essendon,

WCE, St Kilda

Adelaide, Port Adelaide, Melbourne, Richmond

North Melbourne, Brisbane

GCS

On another note my tipping is going ok with 6, 6, 6 & 5 but my Dream Team is ranked 24th from 271,000 entries and my Super Coach squad is ranked 126th from 366,000 entries.

Problem with the Saints is that they appear too reliant on a couple of key players and if they go missing, they're gone me thinks.......not to mention that Riewolt can't kick straight to save his life (unlike Buddy Franklin)

^I picked St K for the win this round

I'm looking forward to watching the anzac day game, see what the bombers can do against the pies

That will be the Bombers true test Luke........I keep thinking week after week that they'll fall over but they don't seem to be doing too bad.........must be the Hird factor cause the team hasn't changed much from last year when they played like little school girls

I would expect the pies to rollover the bombers because of a few key players being injured in the Essendon camp.

On another note. Port vs GCS. Port are paying $1.03 where as the GCS are paying $12.50 lol

Chucked $20 on GCS to win paying $13, you beauty!

I cant say too much about Port because they just didnt get their hands on the ball in the last quarter. Motlop should stop trying to f**k around with the ball, grab it and kick a goal. Gary Ablett, truly inspirational performance.

    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
