You saying you only want to discuss it on your own board actually makes you insular.
You misinterpret what I said.

I have been on both the cats & drafting board threads but I would also would prefer to discuss with opposition supporters on this thread.

You obviously don't understand the concept of insular.

Ease up mate. People have been extremely polite but no matter how polite we are over there they complain about us being rude because we don't AGREE with them and dare to say no you're not getting Danger for free.
Ease up?

I'm not disagreeing with you

I encourage people to engage on other boards, as long as people post respectfully

Unfortunately you will always get some that react negatively and that is the risk of posting on opposition club boards however there are also those who do welcome opposition posters who provide good insight

Not all crows' posts on the cats board have been polite, which sadly means they have had to tighten things. A minority of posters ruin it for others. Some need to re-read the bigfooty rules.

Exactly. And that's what Kane doesn't understand. Allowing those numpties on here would ruin this thread.
As an ex-moderator I believe I do have a good understanding of managing threads.

I would prefer we take a low rather than no tolerance line for touchier topics like this one. With the ability to report posts & 3 quality & balanced moderators this is very doable.

One of the first thing I said as moderator is that I wanted this board to be inclusive to all including opposition supporters as welcome other viewpoints - so long as respectful. It makes me sad we are now getting jibes for being insular.

At the end of the day this board is for Adelaide supporters, so it's about what the majority here want. If that's to lock out opposition supporters on some threads then I will live with that... But imo, it's just a minority.

I wish this thread was open to opposition supporters.

We are not communists but we should give opposition posters the right to post on this topic so long as they are respectful.

Go easy on the cats' supporters as they may need a hug after their hopes of having a crack at a flag are about to disappear for a while... Particularly a certain poster beginning with M will be in need of therapy...

We'll open it to them after Danger signs

The interesting part giving me hope is the whispers of a 'long term' deal.

In my wildest dreams I've only expected a 2 year deal at best…anything more than that would be a serious flag in the ground from Danger and secure his future as not only Mayor of Moggs but also Mayor of Adelaide in a dual role!

Win a flag for us and he will end his career in the top 3 Crows of all time.

Your more upset that Geelong posters are saying we are insular, but not offended they have all been saying Adelaide is a shithole and our club is a feeder club? Cos I didnt see you over there on that thread defending your club or city, yet your whinning about not letting them post here? Hmmm.... Not much of a supporter me thinks.

The posters that are saying those thing are not necessarily trusted or highly regarded by there own. The guy who said shithole got smacked down by strangled cat this morning who is from S.A.

Look I've enjoyed this thread.

I don't really see why blocking a few trolls is cause for concern, really the only non crows fans I can see getting upset are ones who want to come on here and tell us how good their club is.

If I'm going to read drivel is rather it be Crows fans anyway.

Dont we have a contracts thread that is open to all?

How many crows only threads do we have? 1?

Rowey just said on AA that Connors is NOT here for PD contract.... Pop the champagne corks guys must mean Connors is here to finalize PD's contract
He was pretty positive about his viewpoints. Hopefully you are right though.

I didn't listen to Roo and Ditts this morning so can't say what his mood was like.
