CROWD: About 5000 at Aurora Stadium

With scores tied at half-time, the Crows held a 4-pt lead at 3/4 time before resisting a Hawks comeback to advance to the semi-final by 13-pts

Missed the game but have been told Hentschel dominated again. Does anyone know if those two injuries are serious?

Who's going to stop the Crows..? They're looking the goods...!

I watched a good part of the game and it appears that the cows didnt really get out of first gear for most of the night. ALthough the hawks have some good youngsters i still feel like are a far way away from a team like the cows. But all in all the cows looked good. I would be expecting the cows to finish in the top 4 this season. No excuses for not achieveing this.

Should start playing centrals in the practise match at the start of the season. Give us a bit better run for our money than Norwood. (or the Power for that matter)

Two important words,"practise match."

The crows are playing better football at this time of year than Port. Still pretty early though, but like I said if the crows finish out of the top 4 then they have under achived.

Hawthorn = choke.
Adelaide>Power and Central

Nobody,even Hawthorn is capable of choking in March.

Linda Lovelace??

Sorry, have to tell you this Booney, but Hawthorn are and they choke every day. I know someone who goes for the Hawks (and Adelaide) and even he says that Hawks choke.

There is a difference between being crap and choking.

Still only early yet, but I was very impressed with the development of Knights, Jericho & Van Berlo. Maric looks like a reasonable #2 for Biglands and the forward line of Welsh, Perrie, McGregor, Hentschell and a resting Edwards, Roo or Mcleod, etc is going to be very hard to match up on. Coupled with the best defence in the comp surely anything less than a top 4 finish would be a waste of a season.

LOL!

MightyEagles, I would have thought you would know better by now to taunt other teams about choking....

MatteeG would love the Hawks to be chokers, that would mean they had been competitive at least for the home and away season!!

too true Bubbles.....

If you think Central would get closer to the Crows than 66 points, you're dreaming. Crows would kick them of fthe park by over 20 goals if they were serious.
