Qualifying Final - Adelaide vs Sydney

[mcs]

I'd love to see a forward really stand up in the second half for us, and I'd love us to be able to bring the ball out of the backline more easily. Apart from that I really can't fault things, they've been excellent.

We just need to be willing to run hard when we have the chance - not bomb it long. We've had a couple of good goals caused by players running with the ball and working hard. Stretch the crows and put doubt in the young crows players about pushing forward to hard. They will come hard in the second half, but if we can keep defending like demons like we are, then we can go on and get a huge result today!

Come on you mighty BLOODS!

Great half of pressure from the Swans.

Teddy, Goodesy, ROK and Hanners looking the best. Great for Hannebery to get off the floor from last week - a vastly improved effort.

Crows are in trouble if Goodesy keeps going - I don't think they have anyone else they can put on him - Rutten way too slow.

Go Bloods!

Morton is really applying a lot of forward pressure. Going well and got that handball off to Goodesy for Jetta's goal, and nearly had Jude on the end of one right near goal. If he can find a bit of space he might be able to conjure up a couple of goals in the second half. That was a very good half by us. We look like we should go on with it.

Nice to see Goodes stepping up in the big game. Hopefully Jetta will get some confidence from that too.

LRT is a pillar of strength!

Great pick up, Nico- he's really been going in for the hard stuff and running himself ragged when Adelaide get the ball. Great stuff!

We need to keep the pressure up. The crows will come back like a good side.

We can't let them get a run on like sides have done against us in about 6 games.

Even an 8 goal lead at 3 qtr time isnt enough as Essendon showed.

Keep going boys!

Tedddyyyyy!

[Melbournehammer]

We are throwing this away because of our disposals coming out of defence.

[annew]

How many times can Teddy keep saving us?

[stellation]

Wow, that late goal sucks. 2 Swans beaten- it looked like no talk between them.

[wolftone57]

get bloody Shaw off! He has been the major reason we have gone backward this quarter

[Nico]

Cruel bounce. We have been so stiff not to kick a goal.

[Mel]

Bloody bounce! Shaw could have done a bit more though

[Mel]

Morton! McGlynn is injured.
