Crows win, performance, pathetic

Freo lose performance not much worse

CAn honestly say that is the worse game of AFL footy I have watched in years, IMHO neither of these sides will trouble anyone for a final 8 spot, coach says open fast running attacking footy, I moved faster to the loo during the breaks than the Crows did on the field today, what happens if guys like McLeod and co go down huge probs,

One of the worst games of the year.
Looked like a game betweem two bottom 4 sides.

Crows looked very, very ordinary today and Freo were worse in the 1st half.
Credit to Freo to fight back, but the Crows took it waaay too easy and if wasn't for the continued efforts of players like Johncock and McLeod, Freo would've got up.

Agree, the game was painful to watch ... I also hate it when umpires over officiate in a tight finish.

Funny how we see things differently, one of my best mates phoned from AAMI at 3/4 time fuming that the umps were crucifying the Crows, yet watching it on the box I thought Freo had a lot to be unhappy about.

Perhaps if both sides played some sort of decent footy the umps may have not been noticed

LOL Thats a very fair point Locky, was definitely a stinker of a game

Just a brief look at Bigfooty Crows board shows that not a game goes by where they arent fuming at the umpires.

Some of the decisions that went against Freo in the last quarter were criminal.

Probably the most frustrating game of footy ive seen in a while. The only interest there was watching Palmer and watching the 8 DT players I had playing.

Halfway through that 3rd quarter I thought it was a carbon copy of the Eagles game. Crows had just started to get on top, they were 5 goals up and the match seemed over as they peppered the goals. Then they just stopped. Credit to Freo for coming back, but Freos skills going forward are awful.
