Analysis SANFL Club Contribution to the Crows

[Eagleboy2011]

I'll leave that to dogs105

Agree with most West Adelaide clear winner, but after then it gets harder.

Probably something like this...

1 West Adelaide
2 Woodvill West Torrens
3 Norwood
4 Glenelg
5 North Adelaide
6 Port Adelaide
7 South Adelaide
8 Centrals
9 Sturt

Agree on most except I think the Norwood side may have been the weakest. WA easily the best even with Jericho in it.

School footy was not fun if on the opposing side to Mark.
Very strong lad that didn’t mind going the tonk!!

Did you play against him? (Eek)

Do you agree he was a complete brute with a killer hip and shoulder?

Harsh on Norwood.

Sturt don't even have any talls!

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Players drafted from Norwood to Crows or to other AFL clubs then to Crows like Robran, Walker was recruited from Broken Hill so not counted

Not sure if ive missed anyone but got just enough for a side

F Stephen Rowe Taylow Walker Jonathan Ross
HF Bryce Campbell Matthew Robran Sudjai Cook
C James Theissen Andrew Jarman James Gallagher
HB Rodney Maynard Staurt Bown Max Michalanney
B Luke Brown Tom Warhurst Nathan Bassett
R David Pitmann Brettt James Mitch Grigg
I Grant Tanner, Matthew Kelly , Aaron Keating , Chad Gibson, Sam Smart, Kris Massie, Andrew Eccles, Downsborough

Edited to include Thiessen, Walker, Massie and Downsborugh as other people have included theses types

Thiessen recruited by Redlegs, but not Walker, Massie or Downsborough who recruited by the Crows

B: Bassett, Warhurst, Brown
HB: Michalanney, Bown, Maynard
C: Thiessen, A Jarman, J Gallagher
HF: Campbell, Robran, S Cook
F: S Rowe, Ross, Keating
R: Pittman, James, Grigg
I: Tanner, Kelly, Gibson, S Smart

Still better than Sturt imo.

Give you that. It's a totally poor list.
Gore came via Geelong, Nelson via Carlton,

Do you agree he was a complete brute with a killer hip and shoulder?

Only School footy.
Yes, 100% agree.
Packed a punch as well, I learnt that the hard way and quickly worked out to keep my mouth shut after that

Edit: I was just a make up the numbers guy, basketball was my jam.

Robran via Hawthorn.
James via Collingwood

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Robran via Hawthorn.
James via Collingwood

Both originally Norwood though.

 

[crows dude]

Could almost name a Collingwood side full of ex Norwood players


F. Francis Wilson. Patterson
Hf. Kemp. Tanner
C. Wasley. James Staritski
Hb. Taylor Kelly Burns
B. Pitt
R Pascoe. Carmen. Aish


Ok. Not quite a full side. I am Sure there are others

I need to read it again. I thought traded in was not included.

[Apsaalooke]

Sturt

Haven't provided any talls...

B: Gore, Nelson, Mattner
HB: Sanderson, Wilson, Battersby
C: L Stevens, Dawson, Kennett
HF: Jaensch, Begley, Laidlaw
F: T McIntyre, McAdam, Twitt
R: Borlase, Martin, Atkinson
I: n/a

Coach: Craig

Apart from Dawson and McAdam, that looks like a mid table SA Amateur League side

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Mattner & Sanderson too... but they both left.

But yeah, Sturt has been the worst sanfl club for the Crows.

Not totally related to this thread. I met Michael Taylor a few times through work post his football days. A total gentleman and good guy.
Pity never a Crow.

A very humble man and yes a good guy and gentleman.
typical of Norwood people

 

[glengowan]

West Adelaide the best very comfortably.

He was a crow. He was our assistant coach under Cornes

South Adelaide

B: Powell, Groom, Smart
HB: Doughty, Bone, Torney
C: B Cook, Goodwin, Sampson
HF: J Turner, Fitzgerald, Elliott
F: Archard, P McIntyre, Keating
R: Clarke, Koster, Bickley

Coach: Bickley

Edit for Clarke & Keating

Crazy how South Adelaide has not won a flag since 1964 or not made a grand final since 1979.

Nigel Smart, Clay Sampson, Simon Goodwin, Kym Koster, Mark Bickley all got a least 1 premiership medal each in that 1997-8 crows side.

5 South Adelaide blokes and Bickley was the captain in 1997-8.

Can add Phil Carman to that list

It’s a pretty solid back 6 there.

The unfortunate thing about the draft is it leaves a pot luck playing list situation with Sanfl Clubs. Which club is left with their best players at the end of the day will win.
