What could go wrong did go wrong. Lets channel the spirit of the 1993 Prelim final for the most astonishing comeback in the history of footy.

Please Bombers can you get at least to within 20 by 3/4 time ?

Watch and learn Bombers - when your bodies are bigger and stronger........
Funny - Crows draft players that are very young but already have the big stong body type and they can run like machines as well.

After 5 years in the game I don't think winderlich, Dyson, Lovett are going to get bigger bodies.

Hopefully if we're within 3-4 gls by 3/4 time then maybe we can out run them.

I trust everyone realised my last post I meant second HALF not second term... I'm not that far behind ;) God it's been a long day.

There is NO crowd noise when we goal... dissapointing!

the only reason he should get panned in the media is for developing the softest f****** game plan this club has ever had.

Sighs.

Ah well. It's a learning experience, and a great one for the kids. Not a team I'm ashamed to lose to, they're looking to be a real powerhouse going into the latter half of the final series - would've liked to have been more competitive, but there you go.
