Was awesome for the first 6 rounds of the year, and to be honest we still need him as the crouch boys aren't there yet.

Could see him playing next year too

It really is time for those Crouch boys to stand up...... bahahahaha

Crouch...as in bending down, and not standing up....it's a complex play on words I know...

Well he wouldn't be in the team if Patrick was here, so yep he is replacing him.

Played 4 games in 2.5 years though. So will need a lot of time.

You might say he is a somewhat smaller puzzle piece

Wouldn't be in the team if little Patty was still here? Reckon you're way, way off the mark there. Be about 5 blokes out the side before a fit ( if there is such a thing ) Brad Crouch.

He clearly isn't match fit. Would be playing SANFL if danger was here.

Crouchx2 Sloane Thompson are our inside mids. There isn't really room for another one, otherwise Lyons would be playing (who went well when he played)

Wouldn't surprise me if crouch has a week off soon just to manage his comeback

Have I said drop him? Have I said he's no good? No, I haven't. Just highlighting to bennyboy how the media beat things up and people buy it, as in Ports missing piece and Brad replacing Patty. All BS.

All "huff and puff", you might say. :lol:

Actually how far away is he from getting a run.

Gore started the season very well getting heaps of it for the Raven, in the mid field. Dropped off a little the past few weeks. I am looking forward to the kid getting a crack at the big time. Why not this week? Take him up to the Gold Coast & let him find his feet at the level, rather than chuck him in the deep end at either AO, or in Melbourne.... they could do a lot worse than getting a game into him!

Can understand why the Crows are allegedly going hard at Lachie Neale. Their forwardline is fantastic, their back-half has improved in personnel (and experience for some of them) but if you can't win enough of the footy, it's all for nought. They need at least one A grade midfielder for 2017 and beyond.

For sure. Neale would be an excellent get for us if we can manage it.

Freo being terrible makes it all the more interesting. If they were near the top you would think that would increase the likelihood he stays. On the other hand, they now might choose to offload some of their guys like pav and johnson, and therefore have the capacity to match our offer, which would likely be huge compared to his current deal.
