In defence of KG anyone who has a copy of 5 Double Crows calling of the 2004 GF (as I do) would think he was one of ours. He was positive from the start, genuinely happy with the various highlights during the game, and delighted with the win.
In defence of Andrew Jarman I knew him when our kids were involved with a local surf club and while in real life he's exactly like he is in the media he's not unfairly* biased in what he says about the two SA AFL clubs. If he only ever said great things about the Cows he would have probably played another 2-3 years.

* Oh yes he's biased, but not unfairly
Cant disagree more about Jars. I've had a few 'chats' with Jars at his clinics and seen him 'operate' in front of the kids quite a few times over the years. The last thing i'd call him is fairly biased.

Can be a really nice guy, definitely has some skills knowledge but get him talking about Port or Crows and he sprouts the crap you see so often from him in his media life.

The only thing you can say about Jars is he doesnt shy away from his love of his tingles.

And KG is the biggest two-faced liar that ever lived. The BS he helped perpetuate about Port home showdowns is one of the best examples of how morons can have vindictive streaks.

I'd love to have Andrew Jarman teach my kid to kick, but i'd want to be supervising very closely to ensure that any discussion they had was on topic. Bias aside, he's a total buffoon

The Double C sports show continues the Koch theme this morning. Whilst they like having a club president who speaks his mind they're drawing all sorts of long bows about his comments painting Port into a corner.

Mind you I think Rooch is just enjoying talking about Port all morning.

Spends all afternoon having a go at Port for having a strong position on the Jake King fiasco.

"THE Crows have enlisted SA Police to brief their players on how bikies and other criminal elements attempt to infiltrate football clubs.

Adelaide chief executive Steven Trigg on Friday confirmed the briefings had taken place in the wake of the Australian Crime Commission’s report on organised crime and drugs in sport released in February last year."

Forgets his team also has a strong stance against it. Isn't a Stupid person with an IQ below a certain number legally a r-----
Also has questioned our membership figures and stated that they are distorted.

I know I should just turn off but it's like f$&king car crash!

NUFC, YES.

They probably are in terms of raw numbers (I wouldn't be surprised if I'm double-counted because I have a Platinum + Magpies upgrade), but who gives a shit.

Every club does it with three-game memberships and junior memberships that are worth a pittance compared to the full 11-game shebang, but the bottom line is we're finally engaging our base in a genuine way and each one of the purported 41000+ is direct revenue on a level we wouldn't have dreamed of two or three years ago.

How does one actually slam their nuts with the fridge door? Someone catch you in the apple pie?

Haha, after their Classy Crows boner yesterday this one "meant little".
This is actually getting funny now.

Not to mention how excited they were when a close to full strength Crows team beat what was essentially our reserves team.

This makes me legitimately angry :mad:
Since the injury was a complete accident, short of not playing, I don't see how it was preventable. Does whichever shit for brains 'journalist' that wrote that title actually think that there is nothing to gain from pre-season games? I'd rather field strong-ish teams in the NAB Challenge matches than field weak teams to avoid potential injuries to best 22 players. Come to think of it, anyone that knows even a little bit about football would feel the same. I guess that's where The Rag goes wrong though, isn't it? None of their regular 'journalists' have even a scrap of football knowledge floating around in their utterly vacant heads.

Pain For No Gain? Same can be said about a few of the boys down the boulevard. The Editor is shit, and they must really be struggling with getting good employees on minimum wage.

I wonder if they realise that the less shit they are the more people will take an interest to the reporting of information. Obviously not.

"Only time will tell"
But by the time that anyone reads that article the news that "its just a mid foot sprain and Schulz will play next week or round one" would already be released so that whole article is a joke.

Which is why printed news media is a joke and too slow in this age to be relevant.

How many editions do they release in the morning? The back page of the crowvertiser in looking at has dangerfield potentially being poached by Carlton.

The only mention of Port is a little bit at the top of the back page that says its online.
There isn't a single article in it about Port vs Essendon.

There's a **** load about the Toyota Camrys as usual.
