    How do you think we were able to get him? Big guys with good hair and two good eyes brows just don't get traded by clubs everyday. I can only really of Tom Boyd.

    I've disliked the Crows for a long time but have they accumulated one impressive list. Losing Dangerfield, and like us, picked off with the expansion teams, losing their Coach in such tragic circumstances, there would be few in the eight more deserving of the flag. Note: That was a lot harder to say than I thought.

    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Only saw the last quarter, but Davis looked like his confidence was shot.

    I rate the Eagles a chance at Adelaide Oval (good record there) and hopefully they will win, so Davis can re-build his confidence against that shithouse CHF Kennedy nest week.
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    Yeah, except the governing bodies are dodgy, drug cheating is covered up and the host venues are rigged...

    I loved the incredulity of the commentators talking about Mumford's poor game. He has been terribly slow for a while, and apart from his macho physicality which has seen him suspended multiple times, his output does not match his reputation.

    Personally, I hope he, Deledio and Stevie J play for a couple more years. #straightsets

    Mumford's been disgusting all year, can't believe it took them 25 weeks to pick up on it.

    Didn't get to watch the game last night, but geez that's a bad performance on paper from the Poodles (love it). However, now that they're on the other side of the draw to the good sides, I still think they make the GF; only have to get through the not-loser of WC/Port and the Cats.

    Just watched the game , and apparently all is good for the plastics because they won the second half .
    Brereton's love for this club is galling . Thought the crows just worked harder and not enough blue collar for the plastic franchise
    Happy if the crows get through after the phil Walsh tragedy, and the losses to other clubs .

    Not so arrogant now, hey? You could see the petulance grow by the moment. IT JUST ISNT SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THIS!!

    Some vintage Heath Shaw tantrums. And I do believe I saw Jono Patten, who enjoyed mocking an 18 year old, with a quivering lip.*

    Not sure if this is serious but no he has not been as disappointing as Jake, not even close.

    Played 2 more games yet kicked 21 more goals and averaged 4 marks a game
