Crows cleaner with hitting up their targets.
spot on... the crows are hitting everything atm...let's hope that drops off.

need to man up and pressure time.

We can win this but we need to lower our eyes going forward. We are rushing our entries. Would help if Billings could hit a target. Wilkie been fantastic, what a find.
Marshall, Steele and Sincs also good. Need Ross, Dunatan and Gresh to have more of an impact.

We aren't running forward enough because the Crows will hurt us on the turnover.
Need to hit targets better and choose better option.

We are missing Acres as Battle doesn’t play the same way.

Crows midfield are slow as elephants. Need to take advantage of this.

Ratts at quarter time "we need to raise our eyes and kick deeper into our forward line. Only 2 deep entries to 10 shallow entries that quarter"

Then we come out and go so slow that the Crows flood back, then bomb it high and long to a crowded forward line. Not the right approach.

Hunter Clark already shows more ticker, poise and class than Billings. Sorry, but when needed, Billings mostly goes missing. Not good enough for a player who's been in the system since the 2014 season and should be now showing the way for the younger players in the team. His output or leadership on the field is not worthy of $800k a season. Another disappointing game so far.

Sloane should be reported

Bruce’s two sh1tful misses vs Tex’s accurate kicking is the difference right now.

Carlisle is weak. Should not be on Walker
