Their NAB Cup GF win??


For me it's the way they played in the NAB GF. It was hard contested footy and they were able to sustain it for 4 quarters. Last year they produced it in stages but then got blown out of the game in 1 quarter of footy or in some cases didn't show up at all. I am hoping this means they will win more of the close games this year and also not have any blowouts, also I think if they can build a good lead during a game, like they did a few times last year, they will be able to hold on for the win. Add this to their decent draw and I think they will make the 8.

that is true, but Adelaide had the most favourable draw in the 2010 and 2011.
In 2010 there start 0-6 when many thought the crows would should start the season 5-1.

New year, new optimism and words mean nothing.
I reckon Port may shock a few this year too.
