Pretty much got the result I expected yesterday.
Our inexperienced and struggling side was never going to pinch that.
Elliot needs to start asserting himself on the game more, White needs to mark more often.
Pendlebury, Beams and Sidebottom had good games, without being dominant.
Cloke was fantastic.
Decision-making and movement from defence was hit and miss for much of the game.
Now the Crows are premiership favourites.
The Pies did pretty well yesterday I thought. That was a severly understrength side. The Crows had Thompson out but apart from that they were in good nick. They overused the ball something shocking and did everything they could to throw the game away. Sanderson's brilliant move of subbing Wright when they were top heavy was a beauty. Lynch cost the Cows at least two goals in that last quarter he is a spud of epic proportions.
Play more kids. You'll get a better draft pick and the Crows will get smashed in week one of the finals. Not direct enough.

I'm totally with you. Seriously, this is where I expected to be this year. I've said from the start that we'll be paddling. We're in a rebuild, but I think we'll do it better than some other clubs. We trade and draft well and will be back soon. Plenty of upside in the squad, just not for this year.
