The Crows fought hard all match, but were unable to take down their favoured opponents, going down 43-32.
The Bulldogs were a side the Crows were yet to defeat in season 2018, but in their earlier match up in the finals prior to the premiership match, they lost by just five goals.
Both Leeton-Whitton and Turvey Park came out firing in the first quarter, with the Crows only down by one point, 9-8 at quarter-time.
However, from here the Bulldogs started to pile on the pressure.
The Crows were able to match them during the second quarter, but in the third Turvey Park started to pull away.

At three-quarter-time the Crows were down by 10 goals, but coach Nicole Matthews and the side knew anything was possible.
In the end the gap proved to be too much for Leeton-Whitton, but the side were gallant in defeat, showing a never-give-up-attitude.
Best on court went to Turvey Park’s Joanne Wade.
Leeton-Whitton Football and Netball Club will hold their presentation night on Friday at the Mia Club. Tickets are $40 per person.
