2017 NAB Cup:
2017 Season
1 | GWS | Quiet game from the lofty standards he reached last season, still managed four goal assists. | 5 |
2 | Haw | Work-rate huge and close to best afield. Ability to work up and down the ground was a feature of his effort. | 8 |
3 | Port | Started slowly but hit the scoreboard when it mattered in the last term. | 6 |
4 | Ess | Two goals from three attempts, but never stopped gut running. | 6 |
5 | GCS | Ever present option across half forward and pushed hard all night. Finished with 3.3. | 8 |
6 | Rich | Six inside-50’s, three goals and three scoring assists, was on fire when the game was still a contest. | 8 |
7 | NM | One of the few Crows to start well. Hit head on the ground in tackle by Waite in second term and looked unwell. | 3 |
8 | Melb | Well held by Michael Hibberd, and was still feeling the effects of that heavy tackle from last week’s performance. | 4 |
9 | Bris | Lions could find no match for Lynch who finished with three goals including a blinder from 45m hard up against the boundary line. | 8 |
10 | Frem | Played more as high midfielder more than a high half forward with three clearances and three inside-50’s. | 7 |
11 | Geel | Workrate first class and easily the side’s best forward. Two goals, four inside-50s and 12 score involvements. | 7 |
12 | StK | Crows best player with three goals, five inside-50’s and plenty of gut running. | 8 |
13 | Bye. | ||
14 | Haw | Always tries hard, never stops running and always presents makes himself available to teammates with his gut running. | 7 |
15 | Ill. | ||
16 | Ill. | ||
17 | Melb | At times used off a wing on return from illness and continued to find space in attack as the game wore on. Very smart. | 7 |
18 | Geel | Henderson and later Kolodjashnij; 19 possessions and many of them early when the game was at its hottest. | 7 |
19 | Coll | Got the Crows first goal of the game then proceeded to work his back off for the rest of it. | 6 |
20 | Port | Ran Tom Clurey into the ground and was instrumental in keeping the footy inside the Crows forward 50. | 8 |
21 | Ess | Inexplicably missed a simple goal, but the rest of his game was solid. | 6 |
22 | Syd | Kicked the goal to put the Crows ahead in the third term, was good without being great. | 6 |
23 | WCE | No goals and only four marks. Needed to do more. | 4 |
QF | GWS | Continues to get the job done as a hard working forward. Took double-digit marks and was the link between defence and attack. | 8 |
PF | Geel | Can’t miss him with that hair but Cats seemed to all night as he racked up 20 touches and two goals. | 7 |
GF | Rich | Worked hard to link but was beaten by Broad. Ball use out of back half didn’t help him. 14 effective disposals. | 4 |
2016 Season
1 | NM | Ran McDonald into the ground early but faded as the game wore on. | 4 |
2 | Port | Deserving winner of the Showdown Medal with six goals and five inside-50s. | 9 |
3 | Personal leave. | ||
4 | Syd | Six inside-50s and three goals, an integral part of the team and its structures. | 7 |
5 | Haw | Everywhere in a big second half when he was unstoppable. | 7 |
6 | Frem | Six inside-50s, two goals and one of the misses of the season to start the game. | 7 |
7 | WB | Three goals and great work-rate kept him involved for the most part. Equal leader in disposals. | 7 |
8 | Geel | Three inside-50s but no goals this week. | 6 |
9 | GCS | Roamed the half forward line and helped himself to a couple of goals. | 8 |
10 | GWS | Missed three chances at goals he would normally bury. | 6 |
11 | StK | Worked hard up and down the ground, always an outlet for his teammates. | 6 |
12 | WCE | A presence in attack. Took 10 marks. | 6 |
14 | NM | Worked extremely hard as the link man between defence and attack. | 7 |
15 | Melb | Worked hard for six inside-50s and a goal. Typical consistent effort. | 7 |
16 | Carl | One goal but not his best game. Eight marks and three inside-50s. | 5 |
17 | Coll | Two goals from three attempts and two scoring assists. | 7 |
18 | Geel | Two goals from limited chances. Mackie wore him pretty tight for much of the game. | 5 |
19 | Ess | Not his typical game, never stopped running, but not as influential as normal. | 5 |
20 | Bris | Returned to form with four goals and six inside-50s. | 8 |
21 | Frem | Kicked two late goals. Took 10 marks too. | 6 |
22 | Port | Could have had five goals, left his kicking boots at home. Ended with two. | 6 |
23 | WCE | Well held by Sheppard. | 4 |
EF | NM | Snagged a goal in each quarter and ended with 12 kicks and five marks. | 8 |
SF | Syd | Kicked two goals but shown a clean pair of heels by Aliir. | 5 |
2015 Season
1 | NM | His presence as the lead-up forward was not as prominent. | 4 |
2 | Coll | Good foil for Walker. Had it 21 times, took six marks and kicked two goals. | 7 |
3 | Melb | Seven inside-50s and put the Crows back in the game with their first goal. | 6 |
4 | WB | Not the greatest day. | 3 |
5 | Port | Finished off the game strongly with two goals, and four scoring assists. | 7 |
6 | GCS | Booted two goals but played higher up the ground to open up forward line. | 6 |
7 | StK | Three goals from limited opportunities, working well in tandem with Walker and Betts. | 7 |
8 | GWS | Worked hard to get into the game but wasn’t a big factor. | 5 |
9 | Frem | One goal and three scoring assists. | 6 |
10 | Carl | Roamed all over the field for two goals, four inside-50s and six marks. | 7 |
12 | Haw | Needs to tidy up his disposal efficiency. | 7 |
13 | Bris | Showed his worth in the air with seven marks (three contested). | 6 |
15 | WCE | Had four score assists and booted a goal. Good effort. | 6 |
16 | Port | Two goals and three scoring assists. | 6 |
17 | GCS | Quiet game from the link-up forward. | 5 |
18 | Syd | Marked well and gave Laidler the runaround to finish with three goals. | 7 |
19 | Rich | One goal, four tackles and four inside-50s. | 5 |
20 | Ess | Work-rate first class at half forward. Two goals and 10 marks. | 8 |
21 | Bris | Played his best game of the year and deserves a three year extension. | 8 |
22 | WCE | In career best form. Can’t understand delay in offering him a three-year deal. | 7 |
23 | Geel | Two goals and moved well up the ground. Shaping as finals wildcard. | 6 |
EF | WB | Dangerous early on Wood then Boyd. Strong work-rate. | 7 |
SF | Haw | On Gibson. For first three quarters was only Adelaide forward up to par. | 6 |
