It was a line about dashing down the side street while the coppers passed you.

I laughed when I heard that.

It was good.

Loved it.

All right, it's time for...

Where in the world are you taking this today, Damo?

I wonder where, Howie.

I want to take you where you were last night, to the Adelaide Oval, where the Crows got a much-needed one-point win against the Cats, their second consecutive one-kick loss.

And you throw in another one-point loss that they had against Hawthorne earlier in the year.

They've now had three matches decided by less than a kick go against them, and that will be problematic from a top-four perspective.

But the story was, I think, the Adelaide Crows and the performance, particularly chief of Jordan Dawson, who...

Has been so emotionally affected this year by the passing of his brother and the matches that he's missed and the toil and toll that it has taken on him and those around him and given the clear love that that footy club has for him.

And for him to step up last night as he did, to kick three goals in that one-point win and crucial goals at crucial stages and just other acts within the game, just an extraordinary performance from a man who's had a lot of setbacks this year physically because of the absence from the game.

Thought it was brilliant.

And what it does do is it just continues a pattern of every game that he's played for the Crows this year.

He's been so highly rated in terms of impact and the rankings of the players from both teams that are on the field.

He's in the top seven, I think, in just about every game.

It's extraordinary.

And no one's really talking about him in the same light as a Bontempele or a Dacos or these type players.

Do you think he's worthy of that status?
