I am a huge fan of the crows decision. Let the players escape the pressure cooker environment of Adelaide for a few days and recharge/train.

Regardless of whether they win or not I think it's a brilliant call
If you've lived in Adelaide, you'll realise the Adelaide media and general public are insufferable with the pressure they put on Crows players .......it's extremes, either they've already won the flag or their the worse team around.

Media forced Tippett out of Adelaide .....forced Lever to go into hiding

To get out of that pressure cooker for a few days immediately after the win, was simply superb to a) allow players to relax mentally & b) not get in front of themselves due to the adulation of the Adelaide Media ......big tick!

Yeah I can only imagine how relentless the media is, 100% agree with you regardless of the prelim result
