WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?

Year of the Crow

I said I wouldn’t mention the Crows again until the finals, well here we are. And we won the double chance – we are in second place after the minor round games. On Saturday afternoon I will be watching the Crows thrash Freo. The best other result should the Crows win is West Coast to win also, which gives us guaranteed home finals. Should the Crows lose to Freo, West Coast must lose too or we will be playing them in a Preliminary final in Perth, which would be rather tricky. Much better to meet them in a Grand Final in Melbourne!

It will be no mean feat for the Crows to win their third Premiership, given their illness and injury concerns.
