Crows sitting in 8th need a win to secure a finals berth,if the Cats lose on Saturday their job gets a little easier and they can then try to push for a home final
West Coast only need to win one of next two matches to secure 2nd spot but are after top spot if Freo drop another game and want to chalk a win here.

Going Crows at home. Just can't get their demolition of Richmond out of my head

Tough game for me Crows this one. WC is a genuine top 2 team, if we can play like we played against the Tigers we can take it up to them and have a shot at the points at home. Anything less we are looking at loss, we've had a couple of easier games hopefully we are prepared for a much tougher contest this week. Win it we get to play a final, kinda hoping the Pies get up this week also.  :o
It's a test can we play at and above WC's level. Next week will get alot harder if we drop this and Cats beat Pies. C'mon Crows.  ;)

Can not wait for this! Absolutely huge game, have a good feeling about this. Really hoping the boys are up for this, don't want to keep relying on other teams to get the results we need.

Go you Crows!

Tipping the crows in this one... If anyone's forward line will stretch our small backs its the crows. Not sure on mcgoverns fitness and with no Schofield, butler and Wellingham down back. I reckon the crows will Get up in a close one.

Crows by 3 goals.

Yeah fair comment Capt. Even if we lose this it doesn't make a difference - we've locked in the home final (We will beat StK at home next week)

I actually want us to win this because winning form is good form, but more so I would love it to come down to the Ade Geel match next week to fight for that final spot. If Ade win this week, then next week's a dead rubber

Definitely, the crows have more to play for. I mean we can finish top still mathematically possible.... But 1st or 2nd no major difference in regards to the home final. Just the opponent. But crows winning as you said will lock in top 8 and they are in some good form at Adelaide!

They are another side who loves to play attacking footy, so none the less, should be plenty of goals and an exciting game.

West Coast to win for me, great record against the Crows and in SA, I think it'll be close for a half but Eagles will run over them.  Will be good to see what McGovern and Barass can do on field together, could be our future backline.  West Coast have avery good shot at top spot, especially because I think Freo will lose to Port next week.  I'd much rather play Swans or Dogs at home than Hawks who will have rested a few of their guns.

I would rather play Freo than West Coast in week 1 so I'm hoping you guys come up with the win here ;)
