Tom Hawkins,Another Fine Day,Key Midfielders

AFL: David King and Leigh Montagna battle it out once again on GIVE ME SOMETHING ahead of round 8.

When the Crows turn the ball over, they’re defending well. Matthew Nicks ’ side has conceded 43.3 points from turnover . To put it in perspective, the last 10 premiers have ranked in the top six in that area. It’s all the more impressive considering the amount of change in the Crows’ back six in 2024.They’re not getting enough bang for buck in the forward half — both in terms of the quality of entries and the forwards not creating enough opportunities.

The 6-1 Swans are playing with maximum damage and extreme efficiency while running teams off the ground. They’ve ranked first in score per inside 50 percentage , third in chain to score percentage and sixth in defensive 50 to inside 50 percentage . Put it all together and it’s no wonder why the Swans are ranked second in the AFL in points for.Sydney’s contest work remains a concern — they’re ranked 15th in contested possessions and 16th in groundballs.
