As others have mentioned, Crows look like they're gone in too tall.
Otten over Milera was a massive mistake ... plays into the hands of the Tigers defense .
They need to get Walker and Jenkins up the ground at different times and have Cameron bursting through .
Richmond crowding the contest with numbers back and then wave running on the spread .
Lower your eyes Crows !

Geez at the whinging about the umps on here. Betts should've been paid otherwise its been fine. Richmond are by far playing the tougher footy!!!
This. It has been great umpiring. Who here really thinks the crows has been the better team? Richmond want it. Betts free was the only clear one.

Tex needs to lift and inspire his team. A huge grab and goal and fist pump to spur on his team. Has been ordinary considering his post-game interview last week stating they were going over (Grand Final) to win. Has to lift. Sloane second best on ground.

Richmond getting numbers to the contest and attacking the ball and man ferociously. Deserve the halftime lead and are playing inspired. Houli best on ground so far.

Umpires need to look at holding the guernsey in both team's defensive fifty. Lever got called for one and really Dance should have been called for one or two. However aside from the Betts non-decision which was disgraceful, umpires have been a non-issue IMHO

Half time couldn't have come at a better time. Jenkins has been shocking, need Tex to lift big time to be any chance.
They really just need to get more physical. The problem is, you come into a game with a plan against what you think you are going to face. It's hard to change the mindset halfway through a game though.

As predicted by yours truly on Thursday

There's no way I can see Adelaide getting beaten.

BUT

If the scores are close and the Crows are starting to gain ascendancy, and then martians step in and start pulling Richmond free kicks out of thin air (again), then start panicking Crow fans. The fix is in.

The events of the last week have proven that the game is now little more than a money generating racket.

It has gone perfectly to script.
