You play injured players be prepared for backlash.
Thompson. Rutten, Walker?????
Poor old Eddie Betts had an absolute shocker, i think he god caught up & went missing amongst the Yellow T Shirts in the pocket.

Hendo back to sanfl


Henderson use to struggle in the one on ones when he was at Centrals.

Our theory was he doesn't have either the 'football smarts' (probably because of his lack of football background) or 'competitive physical mongrel' which you need at least one of those attributes in the 1on1.

Got 95% of holding the balls right, and blew the whistle and threw the ball up much quicker at stoppages.
I dont think there was one holding the ball where a guy had 5 blokes sitting on top of him


Tex was about the only one. Agreed the umpires were ok

Bloke has 41 touches and you want him to get more of it?! Crikey, how about some other players work harder to receive and run. Too many blokes doing **** all in that team tonight,

Results will tell the story coming forward.

I reckon since the Melbourne game we have stood up and become a feared opponent again.

We ain't far away from being a top contender again but the last 6 weeks imo will tell how good we are next year. We're ****** this year make no mistake even if we make the 8 and win a final @ best....

Make that final against Port!

A top contender?

Crows are a mile off Sydney, Freo and the Hawks. They're the only 3 sides that can win it this year and the Crows are no where near in that league.

Gets alot of it and I know he is carrying an injury most games but his disposal is quite poor at times. Doesnt hit the scoreboard enough for an elite mid, missed a couple of very getable shots tonight

He played an almost perfect inside game tonight. Only needed to slot a goal to top it off.

23 touches between the 3 of them.

5 crows players single handedly beat the 3 of them and Thompson nearly beat the 3 of them on his own in a half of footy.

Hope he gives back his $21 000 a game for this (lack of a better term) effort* tonight!!

Betts very quiet.
Otten well off the pace.

Dangerfield, Sloane, Jacobs, Talia, Pods, Crouch were the best for me.

Adelaide really need some quality run and carry players through the midfield and a couple more nimble half backs.
Can win a hard ball just need someone to give it to.
