Ok. Maybe we can talk about how we can hold on to our guns and attract good players to our cub

Cola, cola, cola...

Oh no, it's disappeared...

Really missing those last two.

Gaining tippett has cost you a flag imo.

Mumford + malceski earning less than tippett but more important.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Mumford - we had him at his peak. Injury prone.

Jetta - Mrs wanted to go home and he cant get a regular game at WC

Malceski - Ask any Suns fan he has been poor and nowhere near swans form.

Tippett is one of the best Rucks in the game and troubles sides going forward, he just doesn't get the kudos he deserves. Its called being versatile

I'd call it good list management

Your point is???

Tippett - injury prone... Whilst mumford Knocks the tippettless swans out of the top-4.

Your point...

We redrafted Michael Osborne before he got drafted. Rorys from my area, had a feeling at the time we stuffed up.

You have only gained your top 2 recruits through cola concessions whilst afc concentrate on trying to pick quality players with the picks available, including later in the draft or rookie draft.

Cola is ended, so now your gifted players through the academy.

Sydney are given a dream run by the afl compared to most clubs.

A lot of salt in this thread. Keep it coming.

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

Jet, just like Touk Miller. Played against them when they were playing for Maribyrnong park.

 

[Golumless]

I endorse this thread. Rory Atkins will destroy a team in the near future.

Well then you mean you want to talk about COLA? No probs.

 

[Go the Guts]

A lot of reality in this thread. Keep it coming.

FTFY.

You have to worry about a club rhat picked Jetta in a final, then had to sub him off at half time becuase he clearly didn't want to be there

Your right about about Mumford he is injury prone, but from what I saw at Spotless it was your guys fault. They couldn't get out of his way fast enough. It's a tough game and they could have gotten hurt

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Sydney supporters should get stuffed with their rubbish and let the rest of us focus on a good news story for he Crows. I'd never heard of Atkins and it's a good thread pointing out a late pick for the Crows come good especially in the context of their last 5 or so seasons (losing players and coaches). They're doing a good job over there

 

[HairyO]

Reckon the op was once a crows supporter but now lists gws?

Good odds. There would be 8 who didnt have a previous club. A lot i know are members of 2 clibs because they love footy and dont like the Swans.

 

[DaVillaBlues]

Adelaide's recruiting certainly has been superb the past 5 years (much better than their SA neighbour, for instance)

Haha sucked in flog he got you

To the actual thread ... weird I know but the crows have done really well at developing lower draft picks and staying in the top half of the ladder

 

[vozzon]

Looks like a good pick up or the crows, they always seem to find good players late in the draft. Hate to think what the team would have looked like if you didn't lose players and picks (from the tippett situation).

 

[Sando22]

Was bloody good last night.

 

[JohnnyFontane90]

there's a strong argument to be made that the adelaide recruiters are the best in the land. they've only * up they ever made was troy menzel

 

[steelebottom22]

if adelaide had bock,gunston,tippett,danger,davis
I dont think hawthorn would have won the all of the last 3 flags

 

[yyou]

if adelaide had bock,gunston,tippett,danger,davis

I disagree
But I do think the Crows would have finished top 2 or 3, but the Hawks would have found a way
Not that I bloody like that
Also: Atkins looks a ripper

It is quite scary how many good key position players the Crows have developed that left for other teams, especially considering our current spine is still very strong. On top of that we also lost this year's Brownlow favourite. :/

 

[kneecapper]

Looked really good last night, it's a shame that first goal didn't count.

 

[Golumless]

Tom Lynch barely got in our side during his first season too, give Menzel time and he'll be tearing up in our side.

How quickly everyone forgets Richard Tambling.
