He's often condescending in his writing

That's putting it lightly. He also states his opinion as fact.

Anyone verify the talk that Walsh's disciplinarian & autocratic ways are making him some enemies at Karparkistan?

Entirely possible, someone reported on the Crows board that a number of key players were quite "loose" at a fancy new Adelaide bar the other night. I'm guessing Welsh's elite standards are a work in progress.

Reports Reilly with a fractured skull in hospital! Fuark!

So...it seems he does belong on the Mainboard then

Hoping for the best

I think you're taking him a little too seriously.

He's a great guy.

Short, but a great guy.

KW2. My wife was there to witness but didn't really nominate any bad behaviour, just noted that they were all there.

Reilly as in Crows? Ouch. Hopefully not too serious for the lad.

Edit: ok found it

Best wishes to Brent Reilly

 

[Schulzenfest]

You hate to hear anything involving head injuries. Reportedly he's conscious and expected to make a full recovery after surgery though.

 

[Ant Bear]

Aren't we meant to boo him for faking an injury or something?
One thing I've noticed about this board - we respect all opposition players.
Good luck to Brent.

Geez .. Fractured Scull .. not good
Adelaide veteran Brent Reilly has been taken to hospital after suffering a fractured skull during training on Monday morning.
Reilly, 31, was diagnosed after arriving at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, where he had been brought by ambulance. The Crows released a statement saying that Reilly had received medical attention on the scene, and is now conscious, with surgery set for later in the day.

Horrific injury. Hope he makes a full recovery.

And he (mostly) defended us.

Yep - just because we don't like the club he plays for, it doesn't give anybody the right to disrespect a player. Let's hope he makes a full recovery.

 

[Jason K]

Bad luck to Reilly, hopefully not as bad as it sounds.

I really don't understand how it would happen. Were they not issued motorcycle helmets to wear at training when they got their special training shorts.

It's always refreshing to read outsiders who use their common sense and powers of deduction to see our varying situations (identity, stadium deal & licence issues) for what they are and invariably conclude our side is the right one.

 

[CharlieKelly]

hate to say it, but I think that could be the end of Reilly's career, this year probably would've been his last anyway. he only managed ten games last season, is 31 and an impending free agent, don't be surprised if he announces his retirement

 

[El_Scorcho]

I saw Reilly at the new KW2 rooftop bar on Saturday night. Nice place apart from being full of Crows players.

A fractured skull is pretty scary. Hopefully it's just a minor one and he recovers quickly.

I saw this as well at KW2. They absolutely were not behaving in any way inappropriately. Not even a little bit.

Why don't you marry him if you love him so much #stermypls

His posting style was pretty unbearable a lot of the time, regardless of how right or wrong he was. Anyone who says "ya dig?" either in earnest or sarcastically is a f***wit.

He's horrible. Shite taste in everything, Pitchfork writer who doesn't get paid.

Only because it was unpopular to do so.

Fair enough, seems odd that a supporter would make the kind of claims they made about their own side, but I guess the oldies get a little bit sensitive when they see their "nice boys" having a few quiet ones.

Silent Alarm is the epitome of the Gen Y phuckwit.

Chasing some info for a friend in regards to general public tickets to AFL games is it still that they go on sale 2 weeks before the actual game? I'm sure it is just wanted to confirm with some others who may know
