Spot on NFC, this match is about taking care of business, and I'm 100% sure the club would be approaching the game with that mindset.

One thing that struck me during the game on the weekend was that when Carlton held the early lead the Crows players did not look worried in the slightest. After a Crows goal it cut to a close up of the players and you could see that they were confident, there was a certainty in their body language that suggested they were sure they would win despite Carlton getting the jump on them. I haven't seen that for a long time, and I like it. :twisted:

The Crows will win this game, and they will win it by a similar margin to last week.

Good news for Crows fans. Essendon have decided not to appeal any of the suspensions.

Crows would have to be the shortest Elim final faves for some time?

I heard $1.12 last call.

Hear on the radio that Bock is getting through training okay so far. If he ends up being fit, who gets dropped?

Tough one for the selection panel if Bock passes the fitness test.

Would Bock be worth the risk in this game? Stevens is holding his own down there. With Lloyd out they are a key forward down. I would be resting him for Collingwood/St Kilda the week after.

Other side of the argument is that you'd like to get some footy into him before Collingwood or Saints (if the Crows make it that far), whether that's via WWT or the Bombers Im not sure.

WWT would be the option if he's fit. Too risky to play him this week, and the team has the match ups to cover Essendon I reckon, particularly with Lloyd and Ryder out.

Give him a full game in the WWT ressies and if his heal gets through then call him up for next week. If the Crows don't get to next week, well then I would suggest there would be many more problems with the side besides not having Bock in.

Perhaps they could run him off the bench, either way they will need him if they win this one.
