Stocks up: Key backman
Tom Doedee continues to have a solid start to 2021, and is one of a few Crows who can hold their heads high after their loss to Freo at home on Sunday. Doedee is calm with ball in hand, desperate without (his smothering work has been sublime) and is surely firming as the Crows next skipper.
Stocks down: From glorious highs one week, back down to earth the next,
Shane McAdam had a day to forget. He kicked one goal and had just four touches on the day from 75 percent game time. We re going to need to see much more for his stocks to rise.

Short answer, how good is footy? The last four matches between the Swans and Bombers have been decided by ten points or less and this win for the Swans brings the aggregate wins for each side since the Swans moved north to 30-30 with one draw.
This game had it all. Swings in momentum, bold passages of end to end footy, and egregious misinterpretations of the rules. While I am heartbroken for my boys, they did have their chances but failed to take them. The Swans had clearance domination over my Bombers and they had 28-20 scoring shots; the Dons had no right to be as close as they were but it speaks to their resilience as a playing group and their ability to keep their heads up in light of the opposition.

Geelong coach Chris Scott says he would not like to see his twin brother Brad leave his role at the AFL to enter back into the coaching caper, claiming it is not a very good job .
Scott made the remarkable statement just hours after his side s thrilling five-point win against Hawthorn at the MCG in the final match of Round Three.
Brad Scott parted ways with North Melbourne halfway through the 2019 season, before taking up a role with the AFL as the competition evolution manager ahead of the 2020 season.
North Melbourne has embarked on a lengthy rebuild since Scott s exit, something he suggested during his time at the helm, and there is understood to be interest around the league of the prospect of Scott returning to coaching circles.
