Preview Showdown 50- Why I Hate The Crows

[chiwigi]

Just had a Facebook reminder of a post made in 2013!

‘First and last. History makers. Go the Power! Suck shit Crows!‘

Must have been the last game at Footy Park.

Anyone who wears that thing would definitely be the type to go up to Port supporter after Port supporter 'what do you think of my prison bars? Hur hur." Looking for a reaction. It's all quite pathetic.

Also, the guy modeling it reminds me of a Norwood supporter I saw having a tantrum in the West Lakes car park after the 1996 SANFL prelim.

To me, barracking for the Crows is like barracking for Woolworths, says a lot about the footy intellect of a Crows supporter.

 

[Grave Danger]

It's not the Prison Bars it's the Barf Pylons.

The holding cells at the Supreme Court?

 

[Adz2332]

Wonder if the crows will go out there like they did last time.

They didnt go to win, the set up they used and what not, they were just looking to not get blown away.
Right from the first 5 mins i knew we werent going to loose, but it was going to be an ugly game.

 

[MrPlow]

Port by 72 and Charlie to kill a man

 

[bomberclifford]

Couldn’t have put it better myself. You’d have to be enduring a self-awareness famine to think this is in any way a ‘win’.

If you asked me to come up with the most cringe piece of merch that Crows supporters would actually buy, this would be it.


It reminds me a bit of this…

 

[Rageaholic]

Used to despise the crows, but now they're so irrelevant, I almost take pity on them.
Then I remember how they were created to spite us, and just how infantile their supporters are. They're like a test tube baby. Not even worth a f**k to begin with.

 

[Us against the rest]

The best thing Port can do is let our footy do the talking like we always have. Our success on the footy field along with traditions and footy smart passionate fans is what earned us our place in the Afl.
The Camry's place in the competition was never earnt, Port Adelaide was the sole reason they have a pathetic embarrassment of a franchise.
Teach those flogs a football lesson Port.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

i have genuinely never seen anything that exemplifies the term "f***ing loser" more than this

That Adelaide Mail thing tries so desperately to be funny like Betoota. They're so lame.

 

[Us against the rest]

This is our opportunity to show the footy world that Port Adelaide owns football in South Australia, the Crows are just a by product of 150 years of dominance, like our excrement.

 

[Frank Hansen II]

I had the misfortune of talking to a Crows fan about football yesterday. He informed me that the club is in year 4 of a 10 year rebuild, after which everything at West Lakes will be rosy again. I felt dumber for the experience.

And they were so adamant until about round 4 of last year that they weren't in a rebuild, then backflipped and said they were two years in. If this crows supporter is saying they are four years in do they think it's normal to go into a GF as favourites and then immediately start on a rebuild?

Yup, they start a jokey/memey idea, then there's zero follow through.

 

[TeeKray]

I mean, it's lame but I could sort of understand it if it was done in the spirit of good natured, respectful rivalry. But you just know the people who buy it will be "PORT POWER 1996, NEVER TEAR UP OUR TARPS, HAHA!" types.

yes, 1st and last Showdowns at FP. The Monfries bounce and the Commetti commentary “that makes up for Robbie Gray in the first quarter”

They need a new slogan, "The team for less and less South Australians."

It’s got 119 on the back lol

 

[TeeKray]

Yeah lol. If you could come back at them with 48 crash, the camp, etc, and have a laugh and banter about it then even that would be fine. But you just know it wouldn't play out like that.

Estimated delivery is late August, so it's not even going to be worn at this game

 

[Ljc_86]

It brings more attention to our prison bars thanks guys for supporting the cause.

It doesn’t even make sense from that perspective. Ed’s already said we can have a teal prisonbar which would result in a rough equivalent to this shirt

I'm sure it will be a shapely fit for the likes of Downs98 and Kate Bartlett. What a delight on the human eye that will be.

Any publicity is good publicity.

 

[Del80659]

It's pretty funny. The reactions here would be exactly what they wanted

we want a flag, they want social media reactions, that's the difference

Spoon...end.
