Remember earlier this year when someone posted the stats on what usually happens to teams that get thumped in the GF? Crows heading down that path of missing the 8.

Keep losing and they’ll want Don’s head on a Pyke.

The really bad thing for someone like Jacobs was that he got out muscled to such a point Grundy could push him out of the contest grab the ball and have enough time to do what he wanted with it time and time again. It was like watching the fall of a consistently good but not exceptional ruckman getting crushed by a similar but younger bigger better newer model.

Just looked it up, This season Jacobs has had 11 clearances in the first four rounds, Grundy had 12 last night.

I'd like to see a fine night in Sydney next Friday - if Collingwood can score 106 points against them on a wet night, Buddy may kick 10 by half time.

Still.. it seriously is a concern if that camp messed with his head.. Imagine a club that heralds itself as Best Practice employs charllatans posing as professionals to mess with its players heads

F**k all the rest of them

Nah he's a w***er.

Not that I needed anything more to add to my already high love for this club.
But after watching last night, realising how much I love having a bloke like Trev0r Br0ke around as our skipper.

Oh the crow's stare? I'd like to see that lol

Their captain's mustache is gone. Perhaps because of those deplorable Mr Potatohead images that circled around last year.

Adelaide going in with 5 key forwards on a wet and windy night is the height of arrogance

Arrogance or Ignorance, or both.

Hahaha just read on the main board a Carlton supporter post:
“Why did the AFL give the crows Friday night games, very poor scheduling”
Well played, haha

Port going in with no recognised ruckman under a closed roof is .... hold my beer

See, I don't think it actually is. Who else were they going to play? Everyone else is either injured or s**t.

This is what happens when you go down the path of 'let's draft key position players no matter what'. Eventually they are all the depth you have and promote shocking list balance.

You know who would have suited the conditions last night? Charlie Cameron.

 

[Smithy7]

I slept well last night.

Me too ... just waiting for the 5AA Saturday sports show to start after 9am .. should be good for the melts ..

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Are you starting to see why I said that Adelaide would miss the eight?

I've been saying this a while too. Not convinced they definitely won't make the 8 but they've done nothing to convince me they will, and certainly nothing to convince me they are premiership fancies.

s**t captain. s**t culture. s**t off season. Awful trading (albeit with some very good drafting - but that won't pay real dividends in 2018). Less prep time due to playing so deep in to September last year. And most importantly they are a team of chokers who can't stand up in high pressure games.

7 minutes to go but who's counting

 

[nadsee]

When a potato like atkins is in your best players you know its time for a rebuild.

This year is it, in regards to the window. There list age is getting to the stage of, stick with what we got, or start again.

 

[pastmyprimus]

If only they had a good sized defender who can take intercept marks and provide rebound from defence, and a skilled and fast onballer type who can kick goals.

Me like.

 

[Powerade 08]

Not to worry, the Crows will be back in business next year thanks to a big trade period and some local draft sliders

Sloane for Saints first (Rankine)
Jenkins for a late first.
Our first - C.Rozee
Carlton’s second - Hately
Kelly - Francis
FA - A.Gaff

Jenkins for a late first huh? He'd look good in Port colours.

Especially if they had the cap space & they were already at the club.
