I for one am curious who will win their Easter Island Statue award for the most goofiest impersonation of a statue during the national anthem. Tex would have to be favourite for that.
For all their gesticulating and self adoration and premature idolation the ol Crowbaits forgot one critical part of the plan.
They were playing at "OUR HOME GROUND", not theirs and we played as if it were our only chance to play in one and they didn't.
No doubt we put a crack through em and as a squad they are fractured, and may not be able to be pulled back together.

You could be right. The demolition on Saturday hit them to the core and that will damage their self confidence big timecraig said:
That's crap leon. Hasn't stopped NRL players from putting in all year, even if they've already signed up with another club, none of their team mates cracks the sads about it. Plenty of soccer leagues n American sports, trade, swap n dump players at a moments notice. It's called " professional " sport, or business if you prefer. The AFL still prefers to pretend it's running an interbred circus where everyone is all touchy feely happy families n it's way beyond time they pulled their heads out of their own backsides.leon said:
Crowbaits behaviour is nothing more than puerile spiteful petulance.

He finished 11th but all the players above him (except B.Crouch) played 3-5 more games. The next seven after him also played more games. Don't think anything dodgy went on, he's just not as good as the media's making out.
The Adelaide Crows played to their absolute peak on Grand Final day. The outs hurt them a little. But the available personnel played to their absolute peak. That's how good they are.
*But Rory Sloane was quelled by a 19yo.* Rory Sloane is quelled by whoever pays attention to him. He's been flogged half a dozen times in the last thirteen months.
*The Crouch brothers were ineffective.* They are the worst two and three mid combination in the top twelve sides. Their midfield is white label. Who's next in their line-up? Richard Douglas? SRSLY would he get a game at GWS? He wouldn't for us. Atkins? What? Seedsman? He wouldn't make top ten in our reserves.
That was one of the worst midfields ever to play in a Grand Final.
They should be proud of their achievements.
I won't bother pillorying their forwards and backs. The midfield is enough.
Adelaide didn't have emotions on GF day. They had lack of talent. (They had that several times during the year if you watched.) The Crows didn't have psychology on GF day - they can barely scratch themselves. They were thrashed on their merits. On their limited merits.
Emotions is just a euphemism for excuses. And psychology is the favoured excuse of the brainless.
Enjoy.

Ouch
Brutal but accurate Dyer.
Not to mention funny.
Hadn't really thought about it because I don't really care but you're spot on about their midfield.
Go on, have a dish at their forwards and backs.
As you say
Enjoy.

The Crows much vaunted forward line was smashed by the best backline in the comp. their mids were deconstructed by just about the best midfield in the land, their defence was run off their feet by the fastest forwards in the league & big Nank might have been beaten in the hit out department but his work around the ground was far more effective than his opponent Jacobs.
Apart from that the Crows should have won because they were the "best team all year" Lord give me strength :
