Skills were crap, simple as that.
I think the rest of the comp are finally about to go past us, Sydney and Geelong, probably due its only taken them 10 years to catch up
Brisbane very good to watch, will press for the 8 next season.

Any of the Adelaide teams want Burton? Trade him while he's worth something, will be out of the system within 3 years. Most frustrating player to watch, reckon that hit earlier in the year on Higgins has effected him, doesnt want to know about any body contact.

Im worried about Roughy's future, i fear this year might be it, he get absolutely towelled up by Josh Walker, yep you read that right, Josh ******* Walker, its a good sign to give it away.

Those crowing about the loss helping the Crows will get a shock next week when Brisbane finish the Crows season.

Brisbane been ok most the year, lost a lot of relatively close games, now getting the confidence up.

I'm with DOOL reckon they will knock the Crows off next week, lot to like about Brisbane for the coming season or 3

As Spargo will attest I’ve been saying Brisbane have improved greatly and are one key forward away from being a top 8 certainty.

If the Tom Lynch rumours are true look out next season

those teams got very lucky due to the expansion teams getting all the best picks, meaning teams like Melbourne have improved slower than expected

we'll take him. is it just poor coaching that Clarko tried to turn him into a key defender this year and ruined his confidence?

whilst probably true, you cant help but mention the crows whenever you talk footy can you :D

Burton stood Buddy last year so he was already playing as a key defender before his time. Second year blues for mine.
