Seems like we only do this when we're up against a top side - why it takes a match like this to get us to play 4 quarters of good footy is beyond me...

We will win this by around 5 goals.

So we will kick at least 30 behinds.

I don't think the Eagles can have that many in the team. Kicking 22 behinds should do fine though!

I hope you dont go to the SCG this Sunday expecting to see the Eagles?

There is a lot of similarity between the Crows and Swans. I'd expect a repeat of last year. Loads of stoppages, hard and tough. I disagree with Liz, prefer to play Adelaide at SCG, we have better chance of shutting down their midfield and I think LRT will be good on Rutten, Leo/Bolts on Roo.

If we turn up for the game at the start and grind them down like we were last year...then we can open the gates and run hard in the final qtr and kick away.

Given injury to Cox, as well as Cousins/Judd not being fully fit - we are a good chance at Subi - although WCE will be fired up to beat us after the GF....hope everyone wears their Leo mask!

Wow, am I getting ahead of myself or what?
Sorry, I know it should be 'one week at at time.'

Or was that 22 behinds at a time.....???
