Accepting mediocrity

[IFBB]

For years we have seen this, and what has happened... No action taken.

Not only is this in the field (finals are a pipe-dream, say goodbye to Danger after 2015). But even when it comes to getting the club out there. What has the club done? Nothing! As lame as marching down the street seems, it works. Let's not forget the continual tv ads, in which I haven't seen one from Adelaide.

Players, coaches and the board, pull your head out. Because a team with the list we have has under performed in 90% of the past 10 years

 

[IFBB]

Pods needs to be dropped, Porps never play again. Johnston needs to grow a pair and tackle and compete.

How do we let Wankoff and Wingard free time after time, who players who always destroy us.

God how we would have loved a fast, classy left footer like Polec on our team... Doubt our pathetic coaching staff would be able to get 75% of what Port can

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Anybody who isn't sticking the boot into the Crows right now, should hang their heads.

 

[Cap]

Congrats to the admin on the AFC you have reduced us to this.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

I accepted it in pre-season.

 

[DD#23]

Johnston needs to grow a pair and tackle and compete.

he did both, the guy lacks pace and strength, that's what makes him ineffective

EDIT: not that I'm trying to polish turds here... today was an utter disgrace, pathetic effort

 

[Mego Red]

I think compromise is part of our ethos.

We would rather get along than win.

Our innate conservatism and prioritizing being good citizens means we'll never be a truly successful club. We don't have it in us to be ruthless. We have defeated souls.

 

[Sir Vlado]

I'm normally fairly optimistic but there is no positive to come out of this, not for now.

 

[Cap]

There is no positive a game lost at selection with our gold pass system.

We need a clean out in admin. We have been weighed and we have been measured and we have been found absolutely wanting.

 

[toldyaso]

hopeless ... without hope
pay these crows on merit and they would all still be on welfare

 

[Damp Squarie]

While on the subject of mediocrity, Rutten is about as useful as a wire-netting waterbag and whilst he has been solid at times...the game clearly has passed him by and did so 2 years ago.

After today, I see no light at the end of the tunnel. None. Ever since the Tippett scandal, this club has just gone backwards at a rapid rate while Port have made all the right moves to become a rabble who got thrashed by GWS to potential flag contenders in the space of two seasons. We've gone from a kick away from a Grand Final to possible bottom 6 in the same amount of time, and it all starts with the admin. Trigg ****ed up and they stood by his side and this club has been set back big time. I will still support this team rain, hail or shine but things will not be pretty for quite a few years.

This is our GWS moment.

Or at least we need to make it

Thank god we now control our own license. Finally the same blokes can make the same decisions without ramifications.

As much as we laughed at them for that, that was the loss that turned them around, they sacked hack Primus and started all over with instant results. Unfortunately, our highly intellectual admin extended Sando's contract until the end of 2016 so we've got 3 seasons still.

 

[Stripple]

Ehh... It's all I can say at this point. So disappointing.

So you're hoping the newly crowned and unaccountable board will fix our admin issue.

 

[noddy]

Most of us could see that we lacked pace all over the ground years ago & what did out recruitment guys go after? slow lumbering dinosaurs.

Disgraceful effort & the whole club should be put on notice, but they wont it'll just be the same old same old.

Your a man of action, want to help me in a common cause?

Turn it up.

They maybe a bunch of w***ers but port are a very good side.

GWS were a bunch of teenagers at the time.

Not even close in comparison.

 

[1990crow]

Out: Pods, Sando, Campo, M.Clarke, Rutten, Shaw, Porplyzia

Soft as butter

In context of our season , our brand and the occasion.

Yes it was.

Sadly, today wasn't rock bottom.

 

[Ravenous Crow]

I think we need to do a Port.

Clear out the admin, get some new voices on the board, put a broom through the coaching panel.

Maybe find someone who's half decent at marketing too.
