a-hole!! ;)

Should Crows trade #1? I would - but only on the basis of 2 tied deals -BOTH MUST HAPPEN 1,23,56 & 66 to North 2, 11, 30 & 39 to Crows Crows then have 2,9,11,22,30,39,40,80 Then trade 9,11, & 40 to Sydney Pick 3 to Crows Crows then have 2,3,22,30,39,80 This way we get 1 of McDonald &...

No. you're not dreaming Froggy. i also read an article which said that the AFL are considering having an extra trade period - a very brief one - before the draft takes place. If they do it would be just another AFL farce. We've just had a 10 day Trade period - if clubs can't get things done in...

For just about the first time in 3 years or so, I'm pleased with how the AFC have handled a trade - the Hately trade. We may never be in this situation again, and I would have spewed if we had offered and paid fair value for him. Offer unders and take him in the PSD - totally correct for once...

100% spot on, on all counts. Not worth a crumpet IMO.

Innocent 100%. :cool: A call saying that wouldn't be in the running for 1 of their prizes!! :)

Seems not.Hung around for 20 minutes but got sick of being there on my own.:huh:

Great news Deanus and many thanks for the detailed update. You've clearly won round 1, so keep on punching and keep up the good fight. You'll beat this bastard thing mate - you will. PS You made that steak sandwich sound soooo good, I'm gonna have to head on out and get me one :)

Thanks for the heads up All_In. Great to see that Deanus is in recovery and will be able to continue the fight against this bastard of a thing called cancer. My message to Deanus is hang in there mate and never ever give up. I was diagnosed with cancer in 2006 and told I'd be dead in 5 years...

Nikki, that call against the Geelong player for unnecessarily and deliberately rushing the ball through for a point was 100% correct every day of the week. The nearest Crow player was 15 metres away and she wasn't carried across the line by momentum. she chose to cross the line when not under...

I think that Kevin Sheehan nailed it when he was asked about Adelaide's draft effort. His response was that we did well with our first 3 picks. Full stop - no comment on the last 2 at all. McAsey and Worrell are quality picks in an area that we really need coming through - and are versatile...

Did we always argue like that Peter J . in hindsight Phil wasn't worth all that effort by both parties. :D

Sums it up for me perfectly Well done - great post!! :thumbsu:

In fairness to Reid, he went into the trade period with one hand tied behind his back All the other clubs knew we wanted to move players on with not overly long futures ahead of them plus get rid of some fat salaries at the same time. The fact that some of these players also just wanted out...

Fagan has already said that we will be over the cap for the next 2 years. Apart from the Pyke, Campo, & Burton departures and the addition of the Leadership and Culture position which all bring additional costs, there will be a fair shuffle in assistant coaches too. i don't think there will be...

Normally you would be right, but as conVINCEd said Fages is very raw in respect of footy itself. I suspect this is one of the additional reasons for us creating the new position of Leadershio and Culture.

If we are truly honest about the External Review, it has been a great result for the Footy Dept. Clean out of the list, clean out of the Dead Wood sitting in vital positions. New Footy Manager, New coaches, New strategist and a New position created focusing on leadership and culture. As has...

Just resting NikkiNoo after the completion of a 2 year assassination of that dickhead Burton. :cool: The club was just a little slower (2 years) to realise what a liability he has been - and then had to be told by others. As one of our Crow Cast supporters posted on my twitter account Ding...

According to Tom Browne, Yze is very much still in the race. The contract that he signed with Hawthorn was apparently done 2 weeks ago but only announced on Friday at their B&F. He thinks the final 3 are Nicks , Yze and Burns with an appointment not too far off. Time will tell if he has got...

You buy a new car for $30k - its not worth $30k a year later. Young players values are totally different 12 months after being drafted. If you rank the draftees by their 2019 year Lukosios comes in somewhere between 8 and 10. Nobody would give pick 2 for him now. So IMO that trade would be...

As much a dickhead that Rowey can be, I think you'll find that he said Brad SCOTT - not Crouch. Which still makes him a bit of a dickhead :D

We've been heavily into trying to get Francis from Essendon, but it seemed that as they were talking contracts a few weeks back, that door had closed. Maybe not - he and his club are no closer to striking a deal. If we trade Keath and bring in Francis, then that fits the new age demographic...

It also tells us that all those clubs had their Football Manager as part of the recruitment team - which is absolutely the correct thing to do considering the coach reports to the Football Manager. This has normally been the case with our recruitment of coaches in the past. But not this time...

Which as any sensible person would know is ridiculous by Tyson to even half consider that. He played a season in our SANFL side which gave all the AFL recruiters a clear picture as to what level he actually sits ability wise. Slow small guys aren't in high demand. If Daddy wants son Luke to...

Just heard Rob Chapman talking about who would comprise the panel to find the next coach of the Adelaide Footy Club. Roo heading it up along with another Board member & 2 external people. No Football Manager who would normally be there as coach reports to him Bye bye Brett Burton IMO

If 5aa have the outs right i.e. Jenkins, Wilson, Seedsman and Stengle only 1 of them is unlucky and that's Stengle. Jenkins (IMO definitely being traded at year end) to be replaced by Fog gets the big tick. Jenkins can't take contested marks and doesn't work hard enough. Seedsman hasn't been...

Listened to Chapman on 5aa with Bicks and Rowey. Thanks for coming on Rob - you illustrated clearly that this is a club with its head up its arse so tight that it can't recognise the problems within the AFC - a club in genuine crisis. To come out and say that we didn't play too badly last week...

Signed

Definitely worth a read. Very witty and hunorous. An openly very biased Crows supporter's take of things after Carlton's unwanted win (by us). :) https://indaily.com.au/sport/touch-of-the-fumbles/2019/06/11/touch-of-the-fumbles-unbound-by-blue/

Totally agree. Galluci is my tip for the player to have the big break-out year in 2019. He has every asset to do so. He's got pace, leap, can take a good grab, nice kick at top pace either foot, can play inside or out. He was developing nicely last year with his cameos getting bigger and...
