One thing it was interesting sitting in the outer tonight, when the crows kicked a goal it was like someone had mad a par at the US masters, just a gentle clap...no excitement and atmosphere..

Well said, true South Australians would have been hoping Collingwood won today.

Different impression on the TV actually re the crowd noise. I noticed the same in the Power game too, a lot of crowd noise for what looked like a small crowd. Maybe they amp up the effects mike.
I just checked the stats and it all looked line ball to me with the only glaring difference being the kicking for goal. Swans kicked 5.14 but there was 5 rushed behinds. Anyway, tell me about Sydney's dominance in the stats? It didn't look to me like Sydney were in that game at all except for the 3rd quarter.
I also have to ask. Everyone knew beforehand what type of game it was going to be, why did you go when the Kangas were on? To beat Sydney you have to play a certain type of game that isn't the most attractive but gets the job done.

After watching last night and seeing a virtually full stadium, a week after the embarassment of all those empty seats the week before against their biggest rivals, I think I've worked out a major reason for them not going to the Showdown.
They don't like to be in a Footy Park in which there'll be a chance of an even/or majority of supporters cheering against them.
It's a situation which arises from being THE Pride of South Australia.
Sure they'll go to Melbourne and watch games there and be outnumbered, but that's to be expected, that's an adventure. But not at Footy Park, no way.

Every coach has the same attitude, and rightly so, their teams W/L performance ultimately dictates his employment ... The Crows are certainly not alone in "Winning Ugly".
It's a shame it has to be that way, but unless you're blessed with the personnel of the West Coast last year, or Brisbane at their height what can you do?
