Have the mighty Adelaide Crows proven that they're genuine premiership contenders after annihilating Essendon?

They sure did, their efforts on the ground were of premiership acolade. Every player standing up. 96 points in a final...is so rare, usually we see nailbitters - but for Adelaide to expose Essendon in every weak area they had was more than great for the crows and for Craig who has a weak finals record.
