Why do you think they want it to be closer to Roo's new pub?
It has always been about not having a club rooms and keeping the pseudo club room patronage for Hurley and Roo

Birmingham is a nasty POS. If he was around in Olson's Premiership days he wouldn't have looked out of place sitting next to Dale Baker.
I reckon it could happen, I can drink a wine at Jolleys Boathouse, that happened didn't it? That's parklands?
In many ways Adelaide needs to grow up a bit.
They won't do somthing they can't sell a beer at, nor should they, I just think Covid might make things go smoother, money talks.
Agreed, that is the perfect spot for them, however no public transport. They had mentioned that as a key item.
Going to the city brings $$$$$ which is key isn't it. Covid has been the perfect foil to give someone some $$, the ACC needs it and I reckon they will sort something out.
It's why Olsen was brought in.
I can't believe I missed the marketing opportunity of linking a 2 x AFL Best Captain with mobility aids for the 5AA listener demographic until you pointed it out just now.

This. Worried that Olsen is in, as anyone else would have been a walkover imo.
Double standards letting them on the parklands.

The Adelaide Casino, Festival Theatre, Exhibition Centre, Intercontinental Adelaide, Botanic Gardens Restaurant, National Wine Centre, River Torrens Cafe/Red Ochre Grill, Adelaide Oval and War Memorial Drive Tennis Centre are all licenced and all built on the parklands.
A lot of people in here need to move in from anti crows do anything... we have a spiritual home, it’s not our problem.
Just win premierships and belt them in games.
as long at they don't hang it off the side of Adelaide oval like they did at the last ground i couldn't give a s**t where they went. Whatever they do it will never be close to Alberton Oval
Sloane looks cooked. Last season he averaged 16d, never topping 18 and turns 31 before the season starts. On form he doesn’t make our emergencies much less our team. Rockys year last year was far superior. It will take some turnaround for a 31yr old to get back to his best. At this stage he’s just collecting a pay check to be a leader for the young kids.
talia had a horrid year last year. The worst year of his career he looked completely finished as a footballer.
both players might turn in a couple of good games for their club before they retire.
laird is a ball magnet and makes every clubs best 22, and would make absolutely none of them substantially better for it.

Yep , he’s a crows fan alright
Crowie & Wrinkles on 5CC said they didn't need a licenced venue for fans to go to because they reckon hardly anyone goes to the venue post match. What they don't realise is where do fan go when the Crows play away? The Port Club was typically busy on an away game with fans have a meal and drink in the bistro and bar. Something we have missed the last year and miss this year because of Covid and now the redevelopment of the club rooms.
Might be less money from the state Liberal government due to their minority holding in parliament.
I reckon it will happen and who cares, plenty of other places on parklands sell booze so it’s hardly a first.
Feds....
Why on earth do the teal hoop socks need to be part of the away kit?
These two are surely dead-set favourites in the AFL's Chiselled Jaw competition.

Thought Ollie was in the "clash" guernsey, not an "away" one?
Or did I miss a sarcasm emoji somewhere
I assume we wear the Jonas strip whenever we play Hawks, NM, Melb, GC, WCE, Freo, Bris, GWS, Geel, Cows, et al (either at home or away)?

We wore silver against Melb as the away team last year.
I also watched their trial to see how it lined up with ours and they look worse than last year. Our SANFL squad has more x factor than that club. I'm tipping them for another bottom 2 finish

Oh yes, fully understandable Steve, thanks for clearing that up...
Why is the new VFL called the VFL?
The new VFL is a mash-up of the old NEAFL and VFL, with 22 teams from three states.
Non-Victorian teams weren’t thrilled by the league retaining the VFL name, but Hocking says it stacked up.
“It’s just the rich history of the VFL name. It has got an unbelievable history and so we have retained that for that very reason. We understand there is some other version we could have come up with, but we have got a competition that is going to be really strong as far as the eastern states at an elite level and it’s going to support the AFL well.”
