Did anyone see Peter McKenna out there? He was wearing no 31 and had a funny haircut.

[layzie 33,796]

Seven is heaven! 

[Jaded No More 68,913]

I’ll take it. 
Finals start next week. 
Let’s go Dees!

These guys are deadeye sharpshooters

[Mickey 4,684]

Fritta! Trac still BOG for me, got us going.

Should have said 8 goals between Fritta and Brown, instead of 4 each.

[BDA 22,751]

Well done Joel Smith. Played your role well

Credit to the Crows they came to play but we got the win, kicked accurately for a change, no injuries and playing for the minor premiership next weekend

Great time to be a Dees supporter

[13thFlagIsComing 542]

Solid effort by the Crows but our ability to absorb pressure was sensational.

Bring on next Saturday night! 

[Maldonboy38 6,402]

Back on top! Well done boys.

How good will it be to see No 31 kicking goals in Finals

Dare we dream.

I'll take a 7 goal win anytime. The game was by no means pretty but I'm pleased that we controlled the game in the last quarter and didn't allow Adelaide to get back in it.

The standouts were Langdon and Fritsch. They both had their best games for weeks. I also felt really confident when the ball went in Lever's direction. He's one of the best intercept markers in the competition.

Anyone else think gawny looked really annoyed that whole last qtr? Even on the bench he was annoyed about something

wonder if something happened

TOP OF THE LADDER, BABY!

Field day for Fritter. Great to see better conversion from our forwards. It's a funny reversal of the last game we played against these guys. It's hilarious that our accuracy kept us in this one at the start.

We're coming for the minor premiership! 

[Wells 11 5,399]

fritta and jackson. in the last! 🤩 

[ProperDee 1,698]

“Let’s drop Fritsch” from the game day thread. NFI.

[gs77 4,240]

Would have called for a straighjacket if you'd suggested at quarter time that Fritsch would snag 7.  

[leave it to deever 17,511]

The biggest upside today was Langdon, spargo and Fritta all back to their best.

Great work from Trac, Petty and Jackson.

[layzie 33,796]

Forge the the game I still can't get over Fritsch! When was the last time we had someone kick 7? 

Hardly touched it in the first quarter, that was up there in Farmer 2000 vs Collingwood territory!

[McQueen 17,864]

That was a good win without Viney, May and Tmac. 
 

We’ve definitely played better and some of our method was questionable at times but gee whiz we’d would’ve struggled without Fritsch. 

[Nasher 33,615]

Loved that. Wasn’t pretty, but ticked all the boxes IMO. Kicked goals against the run of play in the first, weathered the challenge in the third and buried them when they put up the white flag in the last. Very content with that performance. Did what we had to.

Bring on the minor premiership battle next week.

Oliver says hi. Sorry.

[chook fowler 19,458]

Good effort without May, TMac, Hunt and Viney. Melksham, Sparrow and Jordon vulnerable. Poor Gus had a stinker.

[sisso 2,580]

Good professional win by the boys put away a plucky bottom side without too much fuss In the end

Dropped marks. That’s what makes him elite, and we build the game around him down the line. He dropped 5-6 from memory and was very dirty on himself.

[GCDee 3,199]

That game felt exactly like a game where the result didn't matter. We didn't get out of second gear it felt like.
