Adelaide has significantly strengthened its team for its final game of the season against Norwood at The Parade.

James Rowe, Will Hamill, Brayden Cook, Ben Davis, Lachlan Gollant and Kieran Strachan all return to play key roles against the Redlegs.

That's the strongest looking Crows team in a while. Could be a good game.

Not at the game but watch it it and it seems like a strong Ravens side on paper but they are getting smashed around the ground.
1/2 Time
Norwood 7.7.49
Ravens 1.5.11

Doing our best to throw away the double chance

Just switched over to the Norwood game as I have a large investment on them. WTF are they wearing? Looks horrid!

Unless NA do something amazing it looks like Norwood have stolen 3rd place.

All good, we haven't won a flag this century with the double chance.

Jim05 now your boys have earnt the double chance how do you think you will go ? At least you are there dont know how you go against the Eagles but i think you are the only side to have pushed Glenelg both times youve played them

Eagles are miles better than us, I’d be surprised if we get within 5 goals of them. We are still far too inconsistent and drop off for long lengths of time. Winning 1 final would probably be considered a success considering how far back we were coming from

Ok Good Luck

Ah, I'm afraid you might be right Jim, but I don't mind our last month. The kids are getting the hang of it.

Yes, coming along nicely.
Even though Glenelg are the best side I reckon the Eagles are the best drilled and setup side. I think they will be too structured and complete for us. Hope I’m wrong and we make a game of it

I dunno why but I think it's a 50:50 game. Two very good defences (theirs and ours) and our midfield is strong. TwigBall is much more finals ready than CottonBall ever was
