Adelaide Crows<\/a> midfielder Ben Keays has revealed a significant shift in his perspective regarding the infamous goal umpire blunder that cost his club a finals berth last season.<\/p>\n

Keays' late kick was wrongly ruled a behind in a one-point defeat to the Sydney Swans<\/a>, sparking anger from fans and demands for action by the club.<\/p>\n

However Keays says he now views the incident as an opportunity for motivation.<\/p>\n

"I'm trying to see it as an opportunity and a reason to be more hungry," he said.<\/p>\n

"We're going to try and keep that hunger and intensity and use it to fuel us rather than sit and stew on it."<\/p>\n

Keays says the heartbreak has galvanised the entire Crows team, which is now determined to break a seven-year finals drought.<\/p>\n

"It's sort of the only thing to do, it's the right course of action to get around each other, galvanise each other, and use it as fuel," he said.<\/p>\n

The Crows face a challenging start to their season with an away game against the Gold Coast Suns<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There remains uncertainty surrounding the availability of key forward Taylor Walker<\/a>, who has been battling back spasms.<\/p>\n

Former Sun Chris Burgess is a likely replacement for Riley Thilthorpe, who is facing a longer-than-expected recovery from a knee injury.<\/p>\n

"I don't really know, I'm hearing a lot of different things, but I think about 10 weeks before I start running," Thilthorpe said.<\/p>\n
