Dougal Howard playing his best game for the club and Coffield continues to impress.

At the game and extremely frustrated with how we refuse to switch the ball. Constantly kicking long down the line, but on the other side of the ground is miles of space and loose St Kilda players. We will be 10 goals down against a decent side.

Adelaide are terrible... and a very good chance of winning this game.

Given that the Crows can't kick a goal on their own. That's at least three frees the umpires will need to give them in the last quarter.

Umpiring is absolutely disgraceful.....given a lot of crowd pleasing decisions

What's wrong with Membrey - hardly seen him?

Those two and Carlisle taking lots of intercept marks. But Doedee has about 100

Holding the ball. Chooklotto. Spoiling the footy. Either make the ball move straight away or give prior. Driving me nuts.

They'll manage that easy.

Would love to see better body language from big Max. He looks disinterested.

Adelaide won't catch us. But we must kick the first goal of the last quarter.
The free kicks won't continue at this rate. They can't.
They have only kicked more than 46 points once this year and that was against an absolutely injury decimated Swans side who won anyway.
Agree they need to look at a few of the mids who aren't doing enough. This is where Ross, Billings, Hill and Jones, along with Gresham will have to lift.

12 kicks, a goal, a few misses and present throughout the game

Has done more then Ross, Lonie and Kent COMBINED
He needs to stop kicking around the corner, 9/10 times he shanks it.
It’s not the under 10’s

Holding the ball rule is a joke. Where is the incentive to go in and get it?

Strange umpiring all night. Odd decisions against both teams.
