SCORE
BEHIND - Crows (Patrick Dangerfield)

16:06
SCORE
BEHIND - Blues (Bryce Gibbs)
16:40
BEHIND BLUES - It's a pressure cooker at the moment and it is getting to the best of them, this time Gibbs who has more time than he realised and sprays his shot at goal

SCORE
BEHIND - Crows (Richard Douglas)
23:00
BEHIND CROWS - Douglas with a chance to level the scores however his kick lands on the line and is carried over with the margin now less than a kick.
24:20

25:31
SCORE
BEHIND - Crows (Josh Jenkins)
