Just chatting with a mate.

Saying the Crows list is one of the most vulnerable in the AFL looking to the future

If they lose Dangerfield to another club and Thompson retires this list is destroyed, especially considering Walker is an unknown on how he returns from such a serious injury.

And still carrying Rutten, Graham, Petrenko who need to be turned over if they are to move up the ladder

Mitchell cut us apart. Suckling had such good skills.

Danger played well but needs to get a bit more outside ball to hurt teams. Not having tommo hurts.

Mitchell 28 @ 85% (21 uncontested)

Dangerfield 41 @ 70% (27 contested)


Two very different games, both best for their respective teams.

For mine the Crows A graders are good enough it's the middle tier players just simply aren't good enough.

Janesch, Wright, Otten, Henderson, Lynch, Laird, Martin and the like just aren't up to it.

Prop has to go with Rutten.

Drop at least 2 of them spuds and get games in to young Crouch and Grigg.

With the correct program he should well and truly be back physically, the thing that will take time is the mental side.

Totally agree!!

Their 15th-22nd best players in their side are as bad as any getting around

I don't think I have seen a side that is just so reliant on so few!

-Dangerfield
-Thompson
-Walker
-Sloane
-Jacobs
-Talia

Missing half a side and still accounted for the "Shame of South Australia"
Damaging the brand of footy in SA!
Must of been a important game tonight Eddie went missing again, has a habit of putting on the cloak of invisibility for the big games.
500k well spent on the imposter!
Thanks for Gunston too guys lol

Its just so dissapointing that we let that slip seriously henderson is poop at best, our second tier player's go missing wen we need them to stand up imo danger gets plenty of it but its wat he does with it that hurts us at times, bloody sloany gee I wish we had 22 of him guy works his friggin ass off for little reward.u know ya struggling wen spana spanga gets a few kicks and takes some grabs. And roughie didnt touch it and we still lost. . Walker is not right always trying to play from behind as does ranga lynch.. great stuff by jenkins tonight and smith played great games.. back to the drawing board for our coaching staff. Still cant believe no one ran with mitchell no one better to create his own space and wins so much ball around stoppages..ah well we can put the finals word to bed now...

Hendo and otten can't play in the same side. Both are rubbish one on one and get exposed. Especially hendo.

On a positive, best umpired game of the year.
Got 95% of holding the balls right, and blew the whistle and threw the ball up much quicker at stoppages.
I dont think there was one holding the ball where a guy had 5 blokes sitting on top of him
