Rocky over Crouch would've been the go.

This is a strange comment, Crouch has only scored 30 fewer points & both have put on the same amount of cash. Based on form & consistency Crouch has been the better player, Rocky the higher ceiling but would have cost people a couple of league games in the process. Gut says Crouch will rip out a big one soon, happy to keep him for the season.

the crouch brothers must have beat up a couple of CD owners or something.  Both find it hard to score well in SC.   be nice to see them rip out a couple of 160s

Yeah, it's obvious when you watch the games that Brad in particular has been shafted. I watched JPK last night & he seems to curry favour with CD, especially with those pressure disposals that keep the ball alive but don't directly find a team mate. Don't know what is but BCrouch gets no reward for all the grunt work he does. Frustrating as all hell but hopefully things change over the next few weeks.

It has been painful in SC. One thing I have noticed is that CP or CL or not if you don't kick the ball 50 odd metres you wanna hit a target. Sorta Zerrett Libba style where they often just hit up someone close for the mark when they go by foot. Even if I wasn't a Crouch owner (I own both) I would still admit that the SC system is slightly askew in relation to the contribution of these 2. What was it last week 176SC for 70 possies. OUCH! Can only hope 1 or 2 more effective & maybe a goal might change the whole flow of their SC scoring. Maybe not this week tho. GO PORTSKIS!!!

I think Adelaide have too many inside mids rotating through that share the points. CEY, Greenwood, Sloane, Brouch and Mouch.

Smith, Laird and ROB hanging around the contest too also take their fair share of points.

As a non-owner, I've only noticed the big Rocky scores :P My bad

with the crouches it is not the sharing that is the issue it is the points given for touches obtained by them.

Yep, they don't often kick and kick long which hurts their scoring - too many short handballs which don't score much etc and their kicking is often rushed and ineffective

Rushed yes, they are inside players so this is to be expected, ineffective only to the letter of the law, Brad kicks to space on the wing, ball is collected by Crows players & then CD deems this to be worthless. Have seen this continually & can only scratch my head. The only thing I can come up with is Brad's kicking technique isn't as pretty as a Bontempelli or Josh Kelly, therefore it comes off as unintentional. Outcomes unimportant in the eyes of the point masters.

He's playing injured and without franklin in the side lol, pretty understandable really. Will bounce back soon enough.

think the ankle is being overstated, he will come good just as he did in round 3
