Richmond is going to steal this game, go 5-0 up against the crows, and the crows are going to absolutely annihilate them because they're shithouse, and then the media here is going to go insane because the crows have smashed another 'contender'.

I love watching the Adelaide media play down the Crows. Right now if we were performing like they are every media outlet would be pumping us up as the best team to ever don the Power jumper, and a near certainty for the premiership. However they refuse to broach that topic. Seriously from here if they don't make the GF their season will be a massive failure and if they dont win the flag they should be disappointed, that's how far above everyone they are right now.


..... Mind you with all the injuries they are copping at the moment it may indicate they went too hard to be ready to go from round 1 this year, and maybe it explains their outstanding start?
The headline for mine was "BEST CROWS EVER" - after 4 games. Yeah they're in outstanding form, but the season still has 5 months to run. A lot has to go right from here, before the cup is theirs.

Certainly fixed it up in the third with 2 goals and bodying David Astbury, who has 15cm and 17kg on him out of the way for Jesse Hogan to soccer a goal.

I kid you ******* not , I could've sworn I heard a commentator say astbury was one of the best defenders in the comp.


I must have imagined it.

I have been willing Malbun to beat Richmond but seriously they are so friggen bad. I have seen better skills at u10s. Seriously Melbourne WTAF? I reckon Nathan Jones is useless. He goes in hard and coughs the ball up every single time.

It still boggles my mind the sheer amount of high fend offs Martin gets away with. Routinely gets players in the neck. Cannot recall him getting pinged for it.
I'm surprised someone hasn't broken his arm in one of his famous fend offs.

I can live with a draw. It would be fitting
