Most already been mentioned but here goes...
PROS:
Fev- on fire, could of kicked 10 if we could get it to him
Gibbs- all class, need a few more of him
Carrots- done his usual
Simmo- great game
Stevo- good game apart from those costly turnovers

CONS:
Thornton- absolutely slaughtered by Moran(who hadn't kicked a goal all season kicked 4 in just over a quarter), lacks the speed to keep up on a lead.
Ratten- inability to change things up:
1. Thornton
2. Austin- from all reports plays his best footy out at the half back, why leave him in the goal square one out?
3. Gibbs absolutely been killing it in the centre, why play him majority of the time off HBF on Goodwin(i think), he played on ball in the last and murdered them
Russell- had the game of his life last week taking strong marks as the lead up link player, showed no glimpses this week, had no one between centre and Fev.
Fisher- similar to Russell.
Our disposal and retrieval in general was like that of a kid.
We are a better side than Adelaide yet they beat us...AGAIN
No point being the best 4th quarter team if we are the worst in the others, can't keep relying on one decent quarter to get us over the line.

Oh yeah those kick ins????
Are we the only team who waits for the flags and the defence to set up before getting on with it, so frustrating seeing times quickly getting the ball to the wing against us and us struggling to get it out of the 50.

PRO
We had seven players in their 1st or 2nd year of AFL footy: Armfield, Browne, Austin, Kreuzer, Grigg, Gibbs and Jamison.
Allowing for the fact that Betts got injured which effectively reduced our squad to 21 players - ONE THIRD OF OUR SQUAD against the Crows were "babies" in AFL terms.
And yet some people think we should have easily beaten the Crows on their home turf.....Get a grip!!!


You make an excellent point. As much as I hate losing, and we probably should have won it, I look at how young these boys are and how much improvement they have in them. There have been a few game's this year were we have been up by 3 - 4 goals and lost. Next year we'll win those games. We may have lost to the Swans and Crows in the last few weeks but we have so much more upside than those two future has been teams.
