Coach Don Pyke says his belief in Adelaide’s game plan hasn’t been dented by a shock last-round AFL loss.

The Crows blew a chance to finish in the top four and gain a coveted double chance in the finals when downed by West Coast in the last minor round game,

But Pyke says he’s firm in his belief that the Crows’ attacking style will flourish in their finals campaign, which opens with an elimination bout against North Melbourne at Adelaide Oval on Saturday night.
