we exist to play finals

I heard that and pissed myself laughing. Their new CE says they want to be the best sporting club in the country and the President says they're happy with just making the finals

Ryan O'keefe on FSN was asked if he's heading to Adelaide to coach in some form & he said 'nah not right now, might have to wait to see how the dust settles but I wouldn't have thought I'd be going there'.

Not even a bloke with zero experience wants to be an assistant there.

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!"

sounded like an admission to me that they are second in this town, they had to admit it some day

 

[Seanybruz]

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

Someone just txted in this exact quote to AA lol, Rowe's response was 'you are not'.

Seriously if someone at our club admitted to being worried about being in the other mobs shadow they should be no longer be welcome at our club as it's a feeble loser mentality.

A poster summed it up perfectly saying they exist to make finals whilst we exist to win premierships.

Hear hear. The world "culture" is thrown around an awful lot in footy circles but they really do have an awful, awful culture.

Take this with a grain of salt. but my mother spoke to someone who was best friends with Dangerfields former host family and they're saying he's good as gone. Also him, sloane and tex had lost belief in Sando.

According to Penbo, Sloane was in it up to his neck too. #goodblokeyeahnah

Their new CE will be gone in 12 months. A NSW mover and shaker will suffocate in the Adelaide Bubble.

You know you're in trouble when Tex Walker is making the decisions.

 

[chiwigi]

Wow, Chapman repeatedly said. They exist to play finals! Wow.
Clearly Sando wanted Danger out and picks in for a rebuild, they obviously lost their shit about that idea!!!

I'll wager the opposite...he'll become crowertised

You get what you deserve. From the administration to the players to the fans, the Adelaide Football Club is by far the biggest bunch of mouth breathing, bathwater drinking campaigners I have ever seen. There is no redeeming qualities about that place. Blight knew what had to be done, but even he couldn't reign in the prima donnas at AFC these days. Jack Gunston was right when he said that he didn't like the person he was becoming at Adelaide - it changes you into thinking your shit don't stink and that every thing should be given to you on a silver platter instead of putting in the hard work required to be a successful club.

Any player who visibly endorses that piece of shit franchise by resigning with them for whatever reason is guilty by association. At least when our players got rid of Primus, they did it on the field and embarrassed themselves as well. Everyone knew who was responsible for that. But not these campaigners. Political moves and ultimatums are the agenda at AFC. I don't want any player who would want to be a part of that sort of environment.

The absolute best thing to send them into obscurity is for us to win the premiership this year.

Isn't this the reason why they axed Sando? All these blokes said they will leave - Roo and Chappy decided that it would be best to keep the superstars and loose the coach.

"I get really a get sick of Sando's bullshit"

360 just played the audio from AA as part of their intro

this is what i have a problem with whilst i think roo is awesome, he should have to stand aside on any vote that includes his business partners on, its a massive conflict of interest. So if danger tex and sloane actually said this or where going to do it he should not vote at all

Taken with a grain of salt and then some. When the rumour goes through like three sources to get to you it almost looks like you're having us on, lol.

Sometimes, every once and awhile a like button is just not enough!!

Well if it does turn out to be true you heard it here first

 

[pastmyprimus]

The Crows would be mildly upset if Tex decided to jump ship at the end of next season.

 

[Boss351]

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

yeah I'm thinking Dew, you would think if Stewie is seen as head coach material that Paul Roos would have had him as his successor since they worked together at Sydney, with Roos selecting Goodwin it seems either Roos didn't rate Dew or Dewy had 2 options and took the ready to go option at the Crows?, I wonder what skirt Stewie will get pussy whipped by this time and loose the plot, though I think he's married now, it will be interesting who the Camries choose
