I’m not sure why but I fear for us this season


Big start to the season obviously for all clubs, but Essendon in Melb a tough assignment to kick off with and should you drop it, facing the reigning premiers who believe they know what it takes to knock you off, the following week is tougher again. 0-2 start not terminal by any means, but adds pressure.

Crows 50/50 chance or better in both games at this stage, so probably nothing to worry about, but can see why you would.


17 or 18 wins to make the top 4 so if you're 0-2 that makes top 4 very tough.

A couple of Bomber mates in Melbourne reckon Lynch didn’t fly over with the team this morning. Any of you Crowies heard anything about it?

Perfect timing full stop, season beginning today, you can record every Geelong match and watch it whenever you want, they play each game about 6 or 7 times each week anyway.

Carlton beating Richmond at their own game with forward pressure. A couple of soft whistles already is very annoying.
