Not sure he will play a game for the Crows TBH

I havent heard much about him since he landed a year or so back. Out of interest how has he been going in the SANFL.

Agree, doesn't hurt opposition in the SANFL let alone at a higher level.

Would be lucky to survive the cull at the end of the season I would suggest

I havent seeen much of the Crows (mainly just the game v Geelong) this year as I work at their home games. I predicted last year when they were near the top of the ladder that their style of "bruise free" football would come unstuck later in the season which it did. Are they playing a different style this year?

Cheers for the info, its one of the few negatives of work8ng at AO in that I get to see less footy involving both local teams.

Does Pyke have something up his sleeve? I suspect he may.

Dicky Douglas made a very good point. Offer us 9-3 at the start of the year and we take it...add the healthy % and it's nearly as good as 10-2 if it stays healthy.

Throw in a recovering Shooter and good first up game from the Beach with Hughies improved form and plenty to like.

The other positive was a good win with Roars quiet, should shut down that media hype crap for a while that we can't win if you tag Sloane out the game. Some of these journos think they have cracked the da Vinci code when they sprout there over stated BS

Unfortunately for Scott T I think the career is over but such is the evolution of a team that appears to be better off without that selfish prick Dangerfield. go Crowies! Without that wanker we truly do #weflyasone
The Rams are Bucking Awesome in 2017....Don't hate us because you rate us!!!!

Thommo would know where he's at. Was clearly cover for injuries this year. Greenwood has been very good too.

Good to see smith back into a bit of form, I thought he should have been dropped last week.

It was an interesting game Friday. The Crows did try something different in a way that St.Kilda tried to hit the Crows on the counter but apart from a couple times where it was obvious that they did not see a couple options that more often than not they did not punch it forward straight away because the Crows had it covered. Take this back a week earlier they got opened up. It's a start and was far from the best game the Crows have played but it will be interesting to see how they go with this in coming weeks.

Love how Greenwood goes about his footy btw!
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

I said that to my crows maye just the other day. I think you have got a good one there in Greenwood. Hes a good size, likes the hard stuff and not short on pace. Definitely worth persisting with at the moment.

Deservedly so I think. Nine out of twelve is good going. I'm hoping the Cats can get there next week but our record in the West is awful.

That's true. I can't remember a more even season...
Having said that, if GWS can get their list fit by September, just hand it over to them.
