After the news about Tex this afternoon I feel hollow 
, and it got me thinking over the years this club have given me some heartbreaking moments, so fellow fans, what would you rank up there?*
*Yes this is a woe is us thread, so we can all revel in our sadness... (not withstanding we as a club will be alright, we will fight the season out and Tex will come back bigger and better than ever!)
1. No.1 for me has to be Mods missing the 97 flag, Mods is and will always be my favourite player, I am a born and bred Perthite and Mods is the reason I am a die hard Crows fans, who knows maybe if Mods had played we wouldn't of shuffled Caven forward to kick 4 and Jars in the last able to kick 5, but **** me if seeing him after the game with the lads didn't break my heart, love you Mod's.
2. Last year's Prelim, I flew over from Perth with my old man who is a lifelong Hawthorn member, the fact we got that close was probably worse than had it of been a blowout, those final moments where if only we had hit Danger on the lead, if only Danger had tapped it down to Sloane who was on his own rather than try to take Stratton on, if only Sloaney had the ball he would of seen Bernie all alone in front of goal, the what ifs, It almost bought me to tears at the end...
I imagine the 93 Prelim loss would sit in the gut of a lot of our older fan's, I was 10 at the time and this is only really when I started to follow the crows.
And surely now with a bullet, Our great white mulleted hope goes down with a season ending knee, who would want to be a Crows fan
So what is it fellow fans??
