But if Jenkins/Smac can get get 40 goals that will be what tippo got last year. And I think Walker, dangerfield, Sloane and Smith when he returns will take another step up from last year
No doubt many Crows fans would be hoping the same, Joker.
But I predict they'll finish well below last years result because -
1. They have a tougher draw
2. The 2nd year blues after a new coaches' buzz and excitement starts to wear off
3. They couldn't possibly have another dream run with player fitness/injury like last year
4. Don't know if Walker is good enough to dominate every club's best defender every week
5. There really isn't an "x factor" in their line-up
6. Their depth isn't all that great if Tambling still gets consideration for a game
7. They aren't starting the season in a blaze of glory like last year - confidence must be down & that's not ideal
I could be wrong, but that is an alternative point of view for you.
If you don’t like my words, don’t listen. If you don’t like my appearance, don’t look. If you don’t like my actions, turn your head; It’s as simple as that.
