Eagles ain't quality, 7th to 8th at best. Crows are a far better side

bloody oath. thought we played terribly in the first half and to have a 48 point turnaround in the second half is thoroughly unexpected.

so proud.

Turn it up Jimbo fair dinkum it's in Perth. Teams have been smashed consistently there.

betts and sloane imo

from the 14 minute mark of the third term, the last 46 minutes of the game, the crows kicked 8.9 to 0.2. that is amazing

By good Eagles teams.
This years version is ordinary at best, absolute flat track bullies. They will murder rubbish teams over there but will be lucky to win a game over there against a decent side like Adelaide.

That wasn't a normal win. They grounded down WCE on their ground and unwrapped them in the last quarter. I haven't seen the Crows do that away from home in an extremely long time to a good side.

I wouldn't have picked the Crows to beat West Coast in Perth even with a gun to my head. Gutsy gutsy performance that I can't remember the last time we not only won over there but came from behind to win. What I love is not only the heart but the crowbot nature from the Neil Craig era has almost totally been wiped and now guys are reacting instinctively.

Brisbane, Freo, Richmond, Collingwood and St Kilda who are all bottom 6 sides. First half decent side they have played at home and held scoreless in a quarter, they wouldn't win a game at home against any of the sides in the top 8

Guess we will see but the facts are they havnt beaten a side in the 8 home or away this year.
Their only games against top 8 sides at home this year are North and Hawthorn and they won't win any of those.
They are 7th to 8th placed at best and will be knocked out of finals first week as they will be on the road. Crows are a 4th to 6th placed side

Both sides will like thier chances against each other the next time they meet. North lost most of thier Engine room but I thought we were on top early before they started dropping like ninepins. Will we play that well when Hawkins comes back? Starting to wonder.

Dangerfield and a Selwood were just massive. North badly missed thier tagger Jacobs and Goldy clearly wasn't fit. But then again, those fitness problems were us last year and I don't remember us getting a pass from the footy world. Next up, the Bulldogs.
