The crows rated Faulker so highly Reid has compared him to a young Mcleod. The kid has struggled with living in Melbourne and the club believes thaey can tapp in to his unlimited potential........

I think it would be a win-win trade, your right his pace would be huge for the crows and the Dogs need talls, both players would benefit from being in their home states
If Faulkner was available I would think the Power would be interested?

Traditionally in finals midfielders do not kick a lot of goals, their is not as much space, if this style of footy continues in this years finals well the eagles may be in a bit of trouble, especially in melbourne

If they can beat us at aami they can beat us at the gee ?
I would be concerned on a dry day.
Sydney beat them on a swirly windy day in the 06 g/f. when denied space.

I followed St.Kilda because I wanted to have an AFL team.
When the Crows were born I wanted to support the South
Australian team making them my second team.
I am pro South Australian and my 3rd favourite team is Port Power.
Just to confuse you I had made West Coast Eagles my second
favourite team when they joined, they were then my 3rd team
when Adelaide was born, and you guessed it my 4th team when Port
Power was born.
But if Norwood became the second afl team instead of Port Power then
Crows would be my third team.
Just for the record I did barrack for St. Kilda in that 1997 grand final.
And one last thing whos on first ..........

Their was big wraps on Faulkner before he was drafted, the crows had him eyed out for their top selection,
In regards to getting a better player for Meesen, what is his value, he has not played a league game and has struggled at Norwood, for all we know he could be another dudd like Watts and ANGWIN....

Cooney would be 1 I would look at in 1, or 2 years - or even Pav. He will come back to play in SA in the next 3 years.
