AFL LIVE: Crows aren’t done with yet against Hawthorn on a night of high injury drama in Tasmania
Crows kick two quick goals
By Darcy Fogarty has booted a goal for the Crows and suddenly this match feels very tight once again.
"The Crows forwards have been crying out for some good service," Riewoldt said on Kayo Sports.
Callum Ah Chee is playing through a finger issue, he has strapping on one hand.
Jake Soligo followed that goal with a major of his own.
It’s game on in Launy!
Hawks 63, Crows 55 with 17 mins to play.
Injury fears for Crows star Izak Rankine appear to have blown a calf muscle.
He was running through a boundary-line ruck contest when he pulled up short and started hopping.
Jack Riewoldt said he was immediately taken to the bench for treatment on his right calf.
The Crows have the bye next week, so they will be tempted to take him out of the game now and allow him extra time to recuperate.
Sam Mitchell has gone from cold to hot.
Hawks coach was criticised early for not paying close attention to dominant Crow Izak Rankine as the Crows ran riot in the opening term.
But Rankine has left the field with what looks to be a game-ending calf injury, and the Hawks are well on top – 20 points ahead in a low-scoring game.
Mitchell is being praised for sending Blake Hardwick forward.
Three-quarter time stats show Hawthorn 9.9 (63) to Adelaide 6.7 (43).
As I type that, Zac Taylor boots a goal for the Crows - they aren’t done yet.
