A deserving win despite a difficult month of football and omissions. The game was well and truly over by half time, and I'm not sure what the opposition were thinking, given that they now have to play North next week.
I had a feeling we weren't up to the task of beating Sydney, or any top four side, on that particular weekend. When that happens, I guess there is some comfort and benefit in playing around with selection and tactics, than to win or lose playing our A game, and the confidence that goes with it...
If that is true, what you are saying, then in order for someone to see a future incident, there's a good chance that it must have previously occurred at some point in time. Are we reliving something over and over again, perhaps thousands of times?
Our fitness edge is beginning to show its potential in the dying moments of the game. If we can further work on fine tuning that advantage by upping our intensity during key moments in the game, we would be a good chance for progressing to a level that not many teams can match.
So the Crows now find themselves devoid of a coach, at a time when their cross-town rivals are playing it out in a preliminary final against the Hawks. Looks like the tables have now turned, when Port were in an identical position back in 2012. Question is, will they now have what it takes to...
What I find interesting about our evolution is that out of all the millions of species to inhabit this planet, we are pretty much the only ones known to develop complex languages and thought processes.
The current four top sides have many players who are at their peak. This may be their last chance to grasp the ultimate prize. Let them now feel the real pressure of finals football. If we can put an end to Richmond's streak next week, I say it's 'game on' for us.
That's interesting, I did have a stressful/busy couple of days prior to the dream
I've had these continuation dreams. They are similar to chapters in a story in that they continue on from a previous session, which may have occurred days, weeks, or even months earlier. They are not as easy to...
After researching on the topic a little more, I came across the case of David Booth, an office manager who in 1979 had a well documented premonition that came true regarding the crash of American Airlines flight 191. He has a series of recurring dreams about the crash that caused him to call the...
I often have this strange dream where my teeth break off causing lots of distress. Whenever this occurs, often something bad in my life would happen shortly thereafter. Perhaps it's a case of 'remember all your hits forget all your misses', but recently the dream occurred again. This time in the...
In my view, Adelaide has some of the best beaches in the world where the sun sets gradually. It has just about everything the other states have, apart from the higher traffic congestion, expensive housing and food prices, and crowds. Adelaide is also catching up with entertainment in comparison...
It might not be the case but it seemed like after it began to rain, some of our players, at times, were more worried about slipping over and getting injured than winning the ball.
I know we are capable of playing much better wet weather football. One benefit that I can think of in wet...
Great win, couldn't be any happier with our performance on Saturday.
A.Clarkson played into our hands by mentioning that we were far from unbeatable... just what we need at this point in time
To be honest, I'd rather make a few dozen umpiring decisions than having to go through any one of those split second decisions listed above.
An umpire observes a game. If he sees a rule being broken he makes a decision. If he is not 100% sure, he puts the whistle away. That's all there is to...
Police officer - someone you are chasing drives full speed at you with a car (split second decision and not reversible)
Bodyguard - a person lunges towards someone and you are not sure if they have accidentally fallen or intending to harm (split second decision and not reversible)

All are held accountable for their actions and may get the sack if too many mistakes are repeated.
That's pretty odd to allow someone in a neutral position to influence the game like that, let alone one who umpires in a final.
I had a feeling Geelong knew we were going to defend in the second half so they set out blazing in the 2nd quarter, having nothing to fear. If we kept pushing and...
Seems like Hawthorn left their key forward at home on the day to make a statement to a number of clubs, after last week's discomforting loss. Looks like they're a team that thrives on reputation. I can only hope we learn from our mistakes and have a chance for another crack at them come September.
