What keeps me going for this game is that, even without Tex, the Crows have so many different avenues to goal.  They'll get on a roll at some stage.  Eagles will hang around but the Crows will probably score at least 80 points, meaning the Eagles need to put up 100 to make it.

They'd want to get their skates on... 1 goal in 20 minutes...This low scoring is suiting WC to a tee

Starting to not care, if we don't make finals, we have ended the season with a loss to the pies. If we do, we get smoked in an elimination final - just delaying the inevitable really.

Almost every team gets overawed in its first final. Do you want that to be this year or next year?

This time last year I found myself having to support the Pies (I think) for a slim chance of us to make the eight. They lost and I recall saying "I hope I never have to cheer them on again". Today is the same for me. We had an opportunity to make our own luck, but instead, our finals birth rests upon that of Adelaide. So I'll be tuning out, getting on with my Sunday, and will view the final result later.

Considering West Coke cost Adelaide the double chance last year you do have a point.

Apart from that I dont sure what other motivation they would have.

Personal pride

A pre-finals 'kill'

Knocking a rival out of proceedings

Exerting superiority

Practising the game plan

Being professional

Winning form

I used to think & play that way and I was just a suburban hack

The live online betting odds always fascinates me....Crows are now at $4.40 with Eagles at ( not sure because betting was suddenly suspended) ???

 

Just came back and Crows at $3.50

Someone must have put a lot of money on the Crows

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
