Can all of us that can have signatures post a link to the site as part of the signature??????

The more exposure the better :D

And the non SC supporters can still end all their messages with www.asthecrowsfly.com until a moderator tells us not to!

First of all congratulations on the website.

But I don't think the guys at afc.com.au would like how you're copying and pasting their articles to the new site. You can keep doing it of course if you wish, until you get an email asking you to stop.

Well done. Great to see.

Does that make us the last AFL club to have its own specialist forum site?

Finally the void is filled.
Dave can we link it to our board as Melbourne do with demonsblog?

Howdy PerthCrow, were going to have a look at some more mods on Sunday night... Will definately consider you okay ;)

Managed to jump on the net this morning... and Caps already updated everything hehe... great work mate.

Jmorg1, that was only to get some news syndicating through the site, once we get up and running completely we will not need to rely on source from the official site.

Members @ 10:05 = 35
 
Anyone willing to do a review of last nights match please feel free to do so and just PM me with it, will be much more formal as the weeks go by at the moment were obviously still sussing things out and get on our feet.

Vic Crow done a great Preview for the match, alls we need is a review from someone now :)

Great work people, keep joining ;)

Congrats on the site, I hope it doesn't drain the best and brightest.

Just on what jmorg1 said, he's right, you really don't want to plagiarise whole articles from the AFC site particularly, as the club miss out on revenue for lost hits on the site. Have a look at how The Power From Port do it, should keep the lawyers off your back.

well we are hoping not to have to do it once a few our our "loyal"supporters start writing up some articles with their own point of view wtc ;)
 
Thanks for all your input everyone :D

We are really cruising at the moment with 45 members in just two days... :)

Have built a type of structure the weeks news items will be based on, also would like to get supporters views each week, so anyone who is interested and likes writing up there views on issues and pondering and such then please just get into contact with me via PM...

Any kind of news is certainly handy and can be entered through the "Submit News" funtion of the site, really looking forward to building a big Crows community... finally :D

Cheers!
 
hi SBR i personally am a little concerned that there are only 45 members and Dave W looks as though he signed up three times so theres 43. :cool: But seriously I expected more like 50-100.

But what concerns me mainly is that i first found this sight by chance (bigfooty). And how lucky everyone is that I did :) . And i actually didnt know it existed and was trying to find afl.com as i hadnt been there before i didnt realise it was .au as well. Anyway, what i am saying is when i do a google search for the Adelaide Football club or crows or afc there isnt any mention of this as the crows fly site (from what I can see). I’ve only checked the first two pages (20 results) but hardly anyone will go past that i think. This will be the main way that you will get ppl to the site so i'm not sure how you can do it but need to get it so when i type 'Adelaide football club' in google we have 'THE UNOFFICIAL ADELAIDE FOOTBALL CLUB HOMEPAGE. As the crows fly.......blablbalh etc' just a suggestion as 40 members mainly from here aint good enough i reckon. 1-2 thousand within a yr should be the aim imo.

And another point, the site is too complex atm imo. Especially the forums, the simpler the better. I’m sure it will get better as it evolves.

And finally, i'm sure everyone appreciates what you've done, and i may be wrong, as i dont know anything at all about webpages, but surely you’re incurring some expense for managing or setting this up. A small box visible in the left column in all pages about donations is a good idea. If you've spent money of it, you deserve some form of donation if the site is appreciated. Is it possible to a members club sign up like bigfooty?? Cause I couldn’t see it , all I could see was a newsletter. Anyway i'm sure ppl would be willing to pay $10 a yr like bigfooty, and if the total exceeds what you've spent i am sure you can use it to improve the site or serve or something along those lines.

Just some suggestions.

Fantastic effort guys.

If you need some match previews/reviews or other articles, I'm glad to help. :)
 
Thanks for your honest feedback Outback :)

we will be working through the google etc.. searches soon, I myself am not a fan of getting people to pay $10 or such like Bigfooty, but soon we should be able to bring in something like paypal where people can donate and such...

We will be working on getting everything right, things will take time :D

At long last we have our own site,a big thanks to all who got it up and running.I urge all supporters of the crows to join as it can l only get better with more members, more feedback and stories.I think it is already better than the afl site.

Perhaps someone could ring KG and Cornes and plug the site, if it's publicity you want.

Graham has occassionally mentioned that someone should start a fan site (partly in response to discussions about the poor Telstra run official site). I'm sure he'll be happy to hear that someone has produced one.
