Opinion Non-Crows AFL 12: It's the confectionery with 1000 uses

[Crow till I die]

Not loading for me.

What is it saying?

Well lets fight fire with fire, just play the heeney interview to players port are scouting that we may have interest in. The one where heeney said he was expcting a hard tag and his opponent came up to him and said he was feeling crook and it was an easy night for heeney. THAT is the new port adelaide tradition

 

[Crow till I die]

He's an RFA.

Davies yelled to the media a few weeks ago that they'll match anything he's offered. Where it goes from there?

Imagine if he was fielding $2 million / year deals and port were going to try and match that..how would that look to the other port players?

 

[Crow_68]

Surely that happens all the time. That's why you have a Manager who has contacts at all the clubs.

I think the good clubs would focus on selling themselves to the player which ultimately would come across as more professional.

NWM has the same Manager as Thilthorpe, ANB, Draper and Horne-Francis. He would be well across how both clubs operate.

Davies also yelled that he wasn't going anywhere at the end of this year either.

I imagine they have a few players on great deals and a bucket load on SFA. Looking at some of the money and contracts floating around atm Butters is probably worth a big deal. Not sure about $2M

We don't need to do that. We can just point at the ladder

Rory suggests another club told players we were recruiting to not go to the crows for "reasons unspecified"

He should have just said Port play dirty and they should suffer consequences for spreading misinformation

Interesting he made a point of saying that a couple of players ruled out moving to the club that was shit canning us bacause they were behaving like biatches

 

[Crow till I die]

We don't need to do that. We can just point at the ladder

Or show pictures of cars up on blocks around the alberton area

 

[spenze]

So Dawson and Cummings then

 

[Crow till I die]

Lol...clever and...accurate

Voyeurs is the greatest movie ever made

There are only two reasons to watch that movie, and both of them are Sydney Sweeney.

Rucci and Williams were famous for targeting our recruits systemically. I suspect they ended up playing a huge role in keeping Pavlich out of West Lakes when he was considering a return in in the early 00s.

Dawson comes to mind.

 

[Pugsley]

Annoyed me so much I had to go and find it.



So he somewhat bullied kids during a quarter time break, let them compete for something and made them lose. Even though he'd apparently checked with the parents before hand, and had promised them they'd still get a voucher, he still thought that the public bullying of Crow fan kids would be funny (and I guess for Port fans it probably was).

So the apology wasn't an apology at all, it was "No, you don't know, it's all fine. The bullying was just for show. It's ok to humiliate them if I still give them the voucher."

Then talks shit about the keyboard warriors who called him out on it (not knowing he had apparently okayed it).

And then proceeds to go on a rant about how everyone should "be nice" to each other, all while refusing to even mention the Adelaide Crows by name, consistently calling them "the other South Australian team" or similar.

He's a petty jerk who champions "be nice" when it suits, but also seems happy to have his public persona being to make fun of others.

His head shape is irregular. I'm a bully

 

[Pugsley]

Shes absolutely gorgeous, but shes a woeful actress.

The Barbie movie with her acting and co-writing shows this to be true.

 

[George CantStandYa]

He’s talking about Sydney Sweeney and you’re wrong on Margot Robbie, she’s a good actress

You didn't watch barbie

We’re not going to go through every free kick that was and wasn’t paid are we? I mean, swings and roundabouts …

Right Damien?

Rory never actually says here what other clubs had said about the AFC. So we have no idea if these disparaging comments were accurate or not.

Boo hoo. Our club and footy dept has been an average operator for a long time. We had Trigg and Chapman steering it for a decade. And when it looked like we had compiled a multi-year competing list, we destroyed it over a single off-season. We’d be no different.

Tredders is just doing his own research and getting both sides of the story

a couple of massive movies

Is that what we call them now

 

[Slippery Pete]

We don't need to do that. We can just point at the ladder

The ladder is temporary. Players are more interested in the underlying foundations of a club.

And to be fair, a large part of the period Rory is presumably referring to, the foundations weren’t great.
