Yep, the young blokes will be pumped for a game at the 'G again a la Collingwood a couple of weeks ago.

Love watching the Crows at the moment, just the anticipation of seeing what kid is gonna light up each week and show us what they're made of. Exciting stuff! :D

Cook, Griffin and Stevens (pending a fitness test) are the inclusions at this stage. Jarrhan Jacky unlucky but he won't be far off.

Cook >> Jacky so good decision, happy with the changes. Although as I said I'm a big Maric fan but let's see what Griffin can do in career best form, might sound silly because he's only been playing SANFL but he has looked great.

Jacky...dunno, something about him I still don't like. His marking is terrific though, for his size he sure can take a mark and he makes them stick similar to Porps. Kicking needs work though.

Bloody awful game. We got the points though and that's all that matters. You're gonna have games like that, not pretty but 4 premiership points is 4 premiership points. :roll:

Worst game of football I've ever seen, narrowly eclipsing the Adelaide v Fremantle match several weeks ago.
The only reason I watched to the end was in the faint hope that Melbourne might come back and knock them off.
The Crows are playing awful football this season.
If only they played the same brand they did against Geelong last week.
They would have won by 10 goals.

I thought the Geelong v Brisbane game was also boring, while Port hardly raised a whimper against the Saints.

The only real ugly games of footy this year have been against the 2 bottom teams. I bet it want be the only game this season melbourne will make ugly by flooding! I have no doubt that if it was dry weather, the crows would have won by more with plenty of talls up forward and no excuse for skills to be off!

Both were incredibly one-sided.

Looked like men against boys in the Cats-Brisbane encounter.
