Paul Kelly- The musician - Who does he barrack for?

[Leaping Lindner]

Paul Kelly is a mad Norwood fan (as established). When he first landed in Melbourne in the late 70's he started following Melbourne (red and blue) but was defintely on the Crows by 97.

Speaking of famous people that barrack for the Crows, how about that director/writer?? for that series Smallville..He is such a huge supporter that he even named the American football in the series the Crows and wearing the tri colours...it doesnt get much bigger

My brother-in-law is a huge Smallville fan and said the same thing.

I'm 100% certain Paul Kelly is a Crows fan.

Luke Schensher is another basketballing Crows fan.

Xavier Samuel, young Hollywood actor is also a mad Crows fan.

I like the positioning of the word "Crows" =D

Do Adelaide have any good "celebrity" fans?

Sir Jeffrey Archer, Wolf Blass, Gary Sweet, Glenn Ridge rolleyes, Alexander Downer, most of the Thunderbirds (the netball team that is ), Graeme Goodings, condoleezza rice.

Nah, he's a good sort and always pumps the Crows up even though he lives in Melbourne and does radio over there these days. I did a few of the tech segments on his show last year and once he worked out I was a supporter, he never failed to mention it each time.

 

[sapaul]

Yeah, the eyes rolling was more at him still being a celebrity. I actually didn't know what he was even doing these days.

He wears a Norwood hat in one of his film clips from the 80's, but I've no idea which AFL team he goes for, for some reason I dont reckon Adelaide is his team.

Which video clip from the 1980s does Paul Kelly wear a Norwood hat?

He actually was a member of the under 19 squad back in the early to mid 70s

Can you be more precise with any more details please? Ie was he just in a training squad or did he play and games, and if so - what year(s)? Wouldn’t mind trying to look up photos in the club collection at Norwood and see if I can find a picture of him as well.

I doubt he ever actually played any games for Norwood but I understand he lived and grew up in the area.

He definitely lived and grew up in the area. I was just trying to figure out if he actually played any colts level footy?
