It's been a methodical - and a little slow - rebuild from the Crows but they are coming along very nicely now. That forward line is lethal and the transition from Walker to Fogarty is being well executed.
Yeh they even got the moustache almost right
 
3 games with a distinct home advantage.
1 neutral. 1 away game against a bottom 4 side.

Who have you played?
GWS - bottom 4 bound - lost
Richmond at home - 7-12 range - lost
Port Adelaide - 7-12 range
Fremantle at home - 7-12 range
Carlton at home - 5-8 range

4 games out of 5 at the Adelaide Oval…

Real tough start… you couldn’t even beat GWS away..
Try playing GWS in 37 degree humid and hot as hell with a young team and then play 6 days later against a team who had a 9 day break. It was a brutal energy sapping start.

No wonder they were inaccurate. They've cleaned that up now and look like jets

GWS had no bench and overran you. That is your only away game thus far. Pretty sure you guys and GWS played in the same conditions but if I’m wrong let me know.

Crows showed up Carlton’s deficiencies which are significant.

1 midfield is one paced and don’t defend in transition

2. Too reliant on their A graders, Carlton’s bottom 6 players in their best 22 are poor contributors

3. Game plan is too safe, they don’t play with speed on the ball or through the corridor

4. They need a 2nd quality small forward

Carlton will make the 8, but not a genuine contender

Good observations.

My main concern leading into this match was lack of 2 way running from our mids and the fact we have 3 crabs with 0 burst.

Dow needs to be given a 6 week block of senior footy. How the club has continually left in out in the outer(with very good 2s form) and rewarded the likes of Honey and Fisher repeatedly is questionable.
