Chris Knights, it's official

[AFC979810]

They say bad things come in three's...

Hopefully the bad knee injuries to Crows (or ex Crows) players is done for a long long time (Tex/Griffin/Knights)....

is this like when something magically poked Schulz in the eye and he was booed off.

I was at the game today and I remembered us clapping Knights off, but dont let that stop you making up total bullshit and generalising us you bunch of hypocritical tossers

A bit different walking off (and what looked like at the time, feigning for a free. Obviously wasn't feigning in the end, but the crowd wasn't to know) and being stretchered off and being booed

Don't like what we say, the Port board is just south of here anyway

Yeah, except when they actually played for the club.

Bullshit. Everyone loved Maric's big heart. People just got frustrated when he made basic errors. But no one ever questioned his commitment to the Crows

 

[alex_is_on_fire]

Well, considering the thread is about Chris Knights - notice you didn't add him to your list of bullshit claims.

 

[Glenno23]

Chris Knights could also be annoying, but at least he had an outstanding 2009 for us and didn't leave like a ****wit. He left due to opportunity and no one can begrudge that.

Sometimes player's need a new start and supporters aren't too upset to see them go, even if he was slightly maligned. So who really cares if he wasn't liked by all when he was here.

We wish him all the best now, so who cares what we said when he wasn't playing well for us?

No one is arguing with that. How about read what I wrote.

"Except when they played for the club" and some of the crap, some supporter wrote about him was embarrassing. It was bordering on being liable.

Its the internet. Shit like that gets written every day. You gonna go around and call out every post on the internet where someone writes something bad about someone?

I'm, sure you have NEVER written anything denigrating about anyone ever

Still doesn't make it right or excuse people making those posts.

I could handle one more*

How can you respect the opposition when you have no respect for anything inlcuding your own club and yourself. These are the guys who were calling for their own Matty Primus to suffer a career ending knee injury just to get him out of the side. Don't expect too much from these guys as they are supported by scumbags and politicians.

To be fair, it's one bloke out of 20 odd thousand, but what type of loser wishes or applauds injury to people?

But its going to happen. You can't stop it. Its a pointless battle that you can't win, so why not focus efforts elsewhere?

Very similar to your "AFC should fight the fact we have to name a squad of 25 on a Thursday" in the changes thread. Pointless and energy wasting. Look at battles you can win

Anyway, good luck Chris Knights in recovery, no matter how long it may be

It's called accountability and yes, some of my post have to be held to account as well but if any post that defames anyone is removed and sanctioned applied - this place will start to improve.

One is about allowing someone to defend them self, the other is about having a fight attitude and not taking a back seat. No similarity at all but yes, good luck to Chris on his recovery.

After talking to someone who was sitting in that bay, it was more than one person. It was as many as 30 or 40 yelling that abuse, obscenities and disrespect to his about his injury.

I was trying to be balanced and fair about it, but as a visiting supporter, it wasn't a good look.

absolutely, the percentage of idiots would have been less than 1% of the crowd.

 

[Crow-eater]

The paper is saying he's torn his patella tendon (Which would explain the knee cap going walk abouts). Could be out for 3 months

Yep, would agree. I did enjoy all the booing though. That was funny. Chappy gets a kick "booooooo - insert obscenity", umpire pays a free kick against Port "boooooooooooo - insert obscenity", opposition player kicks a ball, takes a mark, handballs it "booooooooooooooo".
That was funny stuff.

I remember Michael Long doing that.

Also Hamish Hartlett did it when he was 14 or so.

He'll be very lucky to get back in 3 months if thats the case

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Just saw the footage. That looked nasty. Hopefully it's not as bad as it looks.

Knight's has been playing some good footy for the Tigers. Is anyone else a little concerned with how many players seem to turn around when traded out of Adelaide?

 

[footy4ever]

To the Port scum supporter who clapped him and abused him when he went down clutching his knee, i hope you get aids you ******* dog.

I was sitting middle-side of the northern bay cover and quite a few Port 'supporters' not only revelled in the injury when it happened but kept making reference to it in the most absurd of applications throughout the match. I know not all Port supporters are the same, but this was truly disgusting behaviour and it confirmed what I already knew about a large contingent of port supporters.

...And shame on the Port supporters who don't align themselves with their high proportion of ****wits, for not batting an eyelid at at the disgraceful comments. ....**** you all.

It was at that very point that I started cheering out loud for Richmond.

Why are you Port flogs still roaming the Adelaide board...You've started losing again, remember? It's time to pull your head in now, you've had your big bravado bit of fun. Its over.

 

[SugarShane]

Devastating, was really hoping he would have a great career. That's now bock Davis and knights gone down. I am sure Kurt and Jack shouldn't worry about a crows curse. Though Jack's choke in the granny, may already count.

Didn't Griffin go down as well in the Freo game? Not sure how serious though.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

You should see the threads on the Port board. Hinkley is already on the nose.

Ross Lyon says "grave concerns" it's an acl..
Waiting on scans..

 

[FR0GGY]

Could it be the over use of cycling in our previous fitness regime causing these knee injuries?
