We owe the Lions one from a few weeks ago.

This'll be the perfect way to do it. Lets knock them out and get into the Grannie!

Dees getting smashed.

1.8 to 5.3.... Geez the Dees had one more scoring shot. :shock:

The Adelaide Crows will host the GF now. Uphill battle for the Pies. Lions and Crows away to win it all. The only two losses we had this year were against these two sides.

Game over. Crows 5.3 defeated Dees 1.9

Crows the team to beat now, finished top, highest scoring team during the season and now home GF.

Most experts tipped the Crows but were split b/w Pies and Lions.

Like last week the Pies need a good start. Last weeks game would have been pretty draining with the hot weather. Hopefully they can put in a full 4 qtr performance.

Lambert with a ripper tackle and goal.

Chloe with a great mark while being held too.

The size of the Gabba is a worry. They'll have to adapt to the size and space of this ground.

Sheridan with an awkward shot on the run. Doesn't get the bounce.

Another point.

Love the down field free even tho we took the mark anyway.

That'll be a free kick counted to us that has zero advantage.
