Dal Santo questions the Crows getaway

[Vikingblood]

Dal Santo is the best addition to footy media in many years.
Haters gunna hate.

Really? So other than his squeaky voice, nondescript looks and uninformed opinions has he added to the media?
Just another squawker feeding off the AFL media teat.

Personally, I loved the fact that Tex got to show off on the beach. Just as I love how Adelaide were convinced that they beat the Swans a few weeks back.
Richmondesque.

Think you'll find plenty of crows supporters were nervous about that game mate.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Are you new to this newfangled media bizzo?

Unfortunately no. I despise the media.

So he personally thinks it's a good decision but it also could be the worst decision in the world.
Ok. Talk about exaggeration and having a Bob both ways.
It is a worse decision than Hitler invading Poland?

Hitler conquered Poland in a few weeks and got the Russians involved and England to bow down.

Invading Greece before Russia a bigger 'worse decision'

 

[LoungeLizard]

If it works i wonder if WC would follow their lead, then whinge about all the traveling they do.

He's ok, but this is a click bate article at best, you could have been a little more discerning if you were going to pump up his tyres.

Fair call. Russia oh dear. That was a poor decision!
What about Japan's decision that the US were bluffing about the A-bomb...
I think we could come up with quite a long list of decisions in world history worse than the Crows going to the Gold Coast for a training camp...

PS it kind of sounds like you hoped Hitler did better...

I married my ex wife once
I own Worse Decisions


And just a student of history

 

[Flandersss]

Dal Santo has instantly become just another media flog. Says a billion words but doesn't actually say anything. The worst part is this guy is absolutely everywhere.

Still not as bad as Danger

Unfortunately no. I despise the media.

I can count on 1 hand those I actually listen to/care about in footy media

 

[master bate]

Maybe not his best choice of words but as if everyone else isn't thinking the same thing?

We know when players travel the flights, the hotel rooms, the food can all throw players out and they often get in travel routines to minimise this.

I think it's a bold decision to add a getaway before a prelim and I support it because I think it's challenging thinking and doing something smart but at the same time if they came out flat a lot of people would ask questions.

No that was a good decision. The bad one was going to war with Russia.

 

[craffles]

I am a huge fan of the crows decision. Let the players escape the pressure cooker environment of Adelaide for a few days and recharge/train.

Regardless of whether they win or not I think it's a brilliant call

 

[Tasfut]

Was Charlie Cameron the one that requested the team getaway to Queensland?

Seriously though, I don't understand the big deal around it..

”It could be the worst decision in history if they don’t fire in the preliminary final,” he told SEN Afternoons.

Worse than Operation Barbarossa? Worse than MacArthur crossing the Yalu River? Worse than Ronald Wayne selling his Apple shares in 1976 for $800?

TLDR; Shrill hyperbole much Dal?

 

[skipper kelly]

He was saying this is how people will react if Adelaide happen to lose next week. If they win it will be the best decision ever, if they lose it will be the worst decision ever.

 

[year of the cat]

The players got out of Adelaide. How can that be a negative?

 

[dcutter]

Completely disagree.

Thoroughly enjoy listening to him on SEN when he's on. Certainly prefer him to a lot of other media personalities on tv and the airwaves alike

 

[Xtreme]

They have to go back sometime!

 

[bradrowe#32]

I think it's a great idea. The players get to take it easy and not just sit around home. Maybe a bit of team bonding.

I'm sure Collingwood did this in 1990. Has anyone else ever done it?

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Send em to bonnie doon during the bye.

It worked the Grant Thomas mainly.

 

[peppy la pew]

That voice....

Like a female hamster on speed

 

[Pea Nut]

You had the exact same thread shut down and locked yesterday, and go and start an identical thread today. OP is a flog of the highest order. Clearly this fool is Rucci in disguise ??

Non-Victorian teams travel interstate every second week during the season. This is actually keeping to the routine [emoji13]

So he thinks it's the right decision 'but' it would be disastrous if it doesn't work? What a ******* tool, you're gonna fit right in at the AFL boys club shrimp dick!
