you haven't seen much of Richmond then Psyber. They're abysmal.

They've been beaten by a minimum of 8 goals by teams that are just mediocre at best.

Yep, but once again Trigg will make the wrong one. If Craig stays too long, tiger07 won't be the only supporter going.......

Come over to the Power tiger, we'd love to have you on board

True - I'm only going on what I've seen of the Crows and I can't see them beating anyone who isn't abysmal.

I can't believe you moderator (whichever one you are), the ONLY interesting thing about the Cows all year is what is being said about them on here.....and you cut it.

Keep going & you will be as boring & predictable as Neil Craig's game plan.

To be fair mate, if you want unfair over moderating you can head over to Bigfooty, they have it in abundance. Safooty has fantastic moderating, they're fair, level headed and realistic. Its unlikely you'll be banned here for some piss weak, petty reason. Can't say the same for bigfooty.

Relax mate, the rules for this area have been clearly stated if your not a crows fan and want to stir the pot go somewhere else because this is not the area which is clearly stated under the rules for the crows and port areas.

Go to the main AFL area as instructed to vent your opinion about the crows.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

Neil Craig was on On The Couch tonight and I just want to comment on a few things he said during the interview. He said the team needs to show persistence and patience on the training track. In other words the game plan is fine. When asked if the older players will be culled when it becomes obvious the Crows can't make the finals (Sheehan said he thinks we're already out of the running) will the younger players get a run he said the team will need to be careful about going young at that stage because then the young guys won't have the older players playing with them to learn from. A most unsatisfactory interview.

What someone should've asked him is how come this team Craig said is the most talented ever assembled at the club, was supposedly aiming for a top four spot and was tipped by Kevin Sheedy to win the flag this year has played like crap right from the start of pre-season, is currently winless this year, has an average losing margin of 7 goals per game this season and is only just being kept off of the bottom of the ladder by Richmond?

What was pathetic about it.... everything he said was frank and made sense to anyone who doesn’t over react and think the world i ending due to the crows current form.

What he said about the older players places in the team is 1005 correct and he acknowledged the game plan broke down with to much handball after half time. The responsibility is with the players to execute the skills properly which we know they all can.

One thing we have to keep in mind is that our 3 key rebounders from defence aren’t playing! should we change the game plan because of this? Maybe/Maybe not. His philosophy is that every player should be able to execute the game plan for their chosen position whether they be first in line to play or 5th in line for selection. We are seeing Schmidt, Henderson, Davis down back all trying to execute the game plan sometimes it doesn’t pay off yes, but how will they learn? They need the experienced heads of Goodwin, Mcleod etc around them to take some pressure off them. Anyone who has played footy no matter what grade/league/standard knows that as a youngster coming in playing against the ‘big boys’ you need some fellow ‘big boys’ around you and gives you confidence.
