Crows shrug-off Carey concerns

Adelaide football operations manager John Reid has played down media reports that Wayne Carey is facing an extended lay-off with a chronic back-related hamstring complaint.

Television reports on Wednesday suggested that Carey had suffered a setback in his bid to overcome the problem, which has hampered his off-season with the Crows.


Reid conceded Carey's 'hammy' had been an issue for several weeks, but was under control.

“Prior to Christmas, he gave his hamstring a little bit of a jag. He came back and rather than put him into the mainstream, we put him on a modified program and at this stage he’s in rehab before we put him into the mainstream,” Reid told 3AW.

“So rather than him just saying – ‘Yeah, I feel alright’ – we will bring him up through the gears. We’ll do that for the best part of this week and next week and then he’ll go back into the mainstream.”

“We just think it would be stupid to risk anything at this stage of the game. It’s a minor niggle, but no different today than it was when he came back last Thursday.”

Reid said he was confident the former Kangaroos skipper would be ready to take his place in the Crows forward line for their opening Wizard Cup match against Port Adelaide on February 22.

“I’ve got no doubt that he’ll be ready to play. I could suggest to you that he could play in three or four weeks,” he said.

“Channel Ten seem to turn it into a drama every time he gets on the track. I think there’s just a little bit of drama when there’s not much around.”

“The other day he went off because he had a bit of diarrhoea, and you would have thought the world was going to close in. That’s the nature of the beast.”

Reid said that Carey had settled in brilliantly, and was right at home in Adelaide and with the Crows.

“He said himself he was a bit nervous. This is a new environment and we do things a bit differently, but he’s settled in terrific.”

Macca23?? It must have been hard to takes notes of the training session with one hand on your pen and the other one on your you know what!!! Fair Dinkum you Crows supporters must be really bored to drive all the way to West Lakes to watch your heroes run around at 9am. Did you get butterflies speaking to the great man who will help you win the 2003 flag (sic). How can one player create so much hysteria, after all he is just a dirty womaniser, who should be trying to keep out of the moonlight. Or is that when he does his best work?

You should have stopped in at Alberton to watch the real deal.

Go to Alberton to watch a bunch of P U S S I E S hold the balls all day and get excited?????? Get a life you ****er!!!!!


The feral has spoken with his first post!!!!! What a ********!!!!!!

Sorry tredders, I didn't take notes, and I didn't have my hand on my you know what. Going by your post the latter is obviously compulsory at Alberton.

If a Port supporter went and watched training that would be loyalty wouldn't it? Funny how it becomes a relief for boredom for anyone else. Carey is actually a good guy to talk to, and although this might surprise you, was recruited for his football ability, as are all footballers. Once we get into player's morals all is not white in more ways than one at Alberton either.

The fact that you are surprised at one player creating so much hysteria as you put it would suggest that you have been living in a broom closet for the past 12 years or so - he only happens to be the most influential player in the last 15 years.

As for stopping in at Alberton to see the real deal, have you re-appointed the womanizing, ****roach ridden chicken shop owning, crap used car owning ex-coach that you used to have. That WAS the real deal!! Makes Carey look like an amateur.

Go get a life!!

I hope that you haven't taken anything too personal beacause I am using this website excactly the way you told me, just to have some fun and stick it up some rival supporters. Sometimes you just amaze me with your time management. Spending time watching the Crows at 9am and finishing your garden beds at 1.30am doesn't make sense to me, but I am only a stevedore who wouldn't get out of bed for anything less than double time.


As for Topjars and Napsyd, ask Macca where he got the autographed Andy Mcleod print that is above his computer, and you will find that I'm not the tool that you think I am, you clowns!!!

To finish with Jack was an extremely good SANFL coach with an amazing record, but was definately past it when we entered the AFL. He is my Dads hero, but that is because he saw him in his playing days as well. By all regards I was told he could play a bit.
Prick of a man though!!!!!!!!!

Darren, you rotten little prick!!! Why didn't you tell me that tredders16 was you!!

For the benefit of the others, Darren is my step-son, and while he is a full-blown feral Powder supporter is actually a good lad. Quite smart too, because he actually is a wharfie and the little prick is on afternoon shift getting paid for posting this as well!!!

As Darren says, I have this magnificent framed and personally autographed with message Andrew McLeod print that Darren gave me for my birthday - got his mate Warren Tredrea to organize it - which is good stuff for a Powder supporter and a Port player. When Darren asks me what I want for birthdays or Christmas I love asking for Crows gear as he hates to go into the Crows shop in case his mates see him!!!

As for my time management, I'll be gardening into the night tonight because I'm hoping to watch Crows training tomorrow morning again

Unfortunately Darren has a serious disability - he is a Powder supporter!!

See you next week when you're back to day shift, you stirring little ****!!

So Dazza, would you prefer a decent finals record or a decent showdown record if you had a choice? No point the Power using up all their energies beating the Crows mid-season only to play like Grandmas come finals time!

Ditto for me. Poor Macca, how do you cope? My ex was a Power supporter, so I guess the relationship was doomed.

Just finished gardening and it's almost 10 30 pm BUT I will be going to watch the Crows train tomorrow on my last day of holidays. I'll post another report on training tomorrow to keep everyone up to date.

Kane, I managed to save Darren's mother from football feraldom by converting her from being a Port Magpie supporter and fortunately she adopted the Crows as well when they came along. She should thank me because she has had the benefit of 2 premierships, as well as avoiding the disappointment of barracking for that mob of finals chokers down Alberton. In fact she is quite embarrassing when we go to Port games as after a few white wines she becomes the loudest supporter for whoever Port is playing.

Darren is totally beyond redemption - he cannot be saved. The black, white and teal disease has unfortunately totally infected him to a fatal level. Like all other Powder supporters he has to live off the glory of Showdowns and pre-season egg cups or woks, because when it comes to the real thing, like Mother Hubbard found, the cupboard down Alberton way is bare!!

I guess we all have skeletons, such as a relative that is a Powder supporter, in our closet!!

Macca, did you manage to get to training today? The brief footage on Ch10 looked interesting as they had a competitive hitout. Apparantly Bodey was very good as was the tackling pressure. Also, Reilly left the track early with a knock to the knee.
