as was one of the losses.

Yeah, you're right. I was thinking that GWS finished 17th

Bone isn't an ambassador, but I reckon Chapman could still get him sacked...

 

[Phhht]

we exist to play finals

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Bone: Sando is the scapegoat for the failings of the AFC.

 

[Nelso]

We are in good hands with Chapman in charge of that mob

Bone - Adelaide jumping at Port shadows??

 

[Magpiespower]

Bone: "Are you jumping at Port Adelaide's shadow?"
Chapman: "Port have been a wake-up call for our football club. We're looking over our shoulder about how we can learn from them."
Bone: "Set the standard! Don't follow it!"

Whilst Chapman is at the head of the crows they will be crawling not running.

He just can't explain exactly why he sacked Sando.

 

[FishingRick04]

I agree with Bone, create your own destiny not others, that's why we lost our way with Choco, he was too caught up trying to follow what other coaches were doing on the field rather than his own game plan.

It was the vibe.

 

[I Dont Care]

Looking over their shoulder is the problem, we aren't there...we are in front

 

[AdamMarrett]

Is there anyone who wants or is availible for the Crows job? Doesn't sound like anyone is interested in that

 

[bomberclifford]

No, he can't. I wonder why that is?

"He's very good in the media, his external communication was good; I think [his lack of internal communication] was feedback he's received.

WTF? The guy couldn't communicate in a coherent manner. Language is his second language

 

[Rising Power]

Would love for Dewy to coach the Crows (for his own personal achievement) but they wouldn't have the balls to appoint an ex Port person. Over the years the only ex-Port people (players and staff) I can think that have been appointed in some role at the Crows are...Alan Stewart, Matty Bode and Sanderson (2007 season as an assistant including playing in the exhibition game in London vs Geelong), Matt Rendell...anyone else? Did Rhett Biglands have some off field role at some stage? Contrast to Port who've employed Pitman, McGuiness, Rehn, Edwards and probably others (there's a current fitness staffer who's name I don't know) in much greater capacities.

 

[Gray matters]

Tippet left the crows cause he said he wanted to get out of the adelaide bubble, carro went on to say that a few players weren't happy that their names were mentioned on 5aa about getting rid of sando. Who knows all the crows campaigners in the media are the reason their players are discontent with their footy club. Rowey could be one of our greater assets cause of his blabber mouth. Add to that rowey and bone calling danger a liar, danger to leave the crows to escape the adelaide bubble

I doubt that. They have been following our every move with poxy substitutes. They will appoint Dew.

Everyones mate Ben Jacobs is back

Everyones mate Ben Jacobs is back

Who?

 

[Seanybruz]

North bringing in Jasquibs what the hell. If both underdog teams get up it seriously could be the Chaplin, Pearce, Burgoyne, Jacobs quaddie of 'grass is not always greener' ex Port men.

Thought they might've brought in Tippett's younger bro, would've laugh if he pantsed his million dollar spud brother.
