Will is 18 years old.... give him a break .

It's just a question of whether we should be playing an 18 year old?

Crows right in this now, sadly

.....but with finals afoot, it's a worry.

We have turned to garbage the last 15 but we are being bent over by the umpires.

[Cpt. Kirk]

Am I the only one that is getting the grand final feels, the umpires are never gonna let us win this.

[Billericay]

Sloane hurt maybe

[Mel_C]

Definitely have to get Heeney off Sloane. We need him to be making play.

3 quick goals to them and Betts having a shot. Phew he missed. (His goal earlier should have been in the back but he got away with it yet again).

We are fumbling heaps now. Can't handle the pressure. It started with Hayward and has spread to the others.

We need halftime to come!

Well-timed half time break. They have turned the tables on us. Premiership quarter coming up. Someone needs to tag Sloane (not Heeney) and Hayward does appear to be the weakest link, not sure what they can do about that? Maybe he'll make a fool of me in the second half?

37 tackles to 18 against us that quarter.

[ASSASSIN]

Heeney does nothing and refuses to fight for the ball when there is a contest. Swans fumbling every ball that comes their way the last 10 mins

Sloane has as many free kicks as the Swans.

Agree on the fumbling. Its not been around in recent weeks so what the? Time to unleash George on Sloane.

We're winning the centre clearances for once! But they're smashing us in the free kicks, wonder what we can do about that?

[dimelb]

Adelaide lifted their pressure in Q2 but we've held on. I think they are rotating on Sloane - Heeney and Jones have both had a go. Where is Hewett?
Need to send it forward more often, but with Adelaide manning up as they did in Q2 easier said than done. I didn't see possession figures but Adelaide seems to have the edge in forward 50 entries, and also seem better at having someone there to take it.

[stevoswan]

Hewitt to Sloane and Heeney set free......and the umpires take a good hard look at themselves! Free kick count 14-5.....WTF?

[Nico]

Will is struggling. Looks a bit worried about body contact. 2 goals to them from his in ability to grasp the footy. Play him out of the square.

14 frees to 5 at half time and Roos just said the Crows have been stiff a few times.

We need to reset and get back to close tackling footy. Some fumbles at critical times.

I reckon Heeney has been too much of an individual. Trying to do it himself when he has footy instead of looking for an option. Can't barge through every time mate.
