Crowie: "Gorringe didn't choose PAFC. He spoke with both but was told he would be a long way down the list at Crows so now he wants to go to Port!" :drunk:
More like Gorringe's Manager rang and asked to speak to the Coach. The receptionist stumbled before putting him through to Chapman who thought that Gorringe was applying to be the coach.
Chappy responded that he was 4th or 5th in line.

I'm already missing the weekly "CHAT LIVE WITH JOSH JENKINS ON ADELAIDENOW!" every week. It was fun.
First time I saw that on AdelaideNow I had to Google "Josh Jenkins". o_O

The pissant media in Pissantville's total infatuation with all things Crow is truly cringeworthy. The kid is a virtual nobody who has been in town five minutes and he is the darling of the Adelaide media. At least Eddie Betts made a name for himself at Carlton before they named a pocket at Adelaide Oval after him after only a handful of games for the Cows.

..... “I think we’ve now got the Eddie Betts pocket, I think we can officially now call it that — even when Port plays here,’’ Sanderson said after the small forward kicked three of his four goals in Showdown 37 from the packed north-eastern pocket. ...
:rolleyes:

He is really dialling up the propaganda too. He got a text from one of his personal contacts from the footy industry regarding Bassett. His contact "allowed hin to read it on air as long as he wasn't identified", strongly hinted it was Cwaigy. "Must get Bass, MUST"! And that's good enough for me says cRowie.

If karma is really a thing, they should be twirling their waxed moustaches after tying him to the Seaford line.

"Your best player's leaving! Your list is shot! You've got no money, and your club won't even exist in 5 years!"



"They're gonna end up with Hinkley! Hinkley!"
What a dic*head. His wife must have a guide dog as well as stupid.

i thought he was referring to andrew macloed who worked with bassett at norwood and also worked with rowe at 5aa. either way i think it was total bs, just selling the crowfans the bolton wasnt that good but bassett was awesome line.
I heard stupid say that. My immediate thoughts were "propaganda is in full swing". Idiots, they treat us as fools, yet we know only too well how the cows ambassodors function within the SA media.

How about the Eddie Betts perimeter fence, since that's where he kicks most of his goals from.
Well it was reported that he kicked 3 of his goals "from the packed north-eastern pocket" which means he was in the crowd as even all 36 players could hardly pack an oval's onfield pocket.

BRASS BINGE ON BALFOURS' BUNS
AAMI Stadium, 3 October.

Rob Chapman: Well we have a few things to get through this morning.
Stephen Rowe: Yeah, have a look at all them kitchener buns. God I love this club.
Andrew Fagan: Do Balfours make cream puffs? They'd be more appropriate around this place.
Rob Chapman: Listen Alby. You've been here two weeks and all you do is criticise.
Nigel Smart: As Nathan Buckley says, "how can you move forward if there's no conflict?"
Alan Stewart: Yeah, that conflict is really working well for Essendon.
Stephen Rowe: So Roo, tell us your news. Tell us.
Mark Ricciuto: I've hired a beauty, boys. All the right qualifications.
Rob Chapman: Voss, Worsfold, Neeld?
Mark Ricciuto: Nah, a new bartender at the pub. Big galoot from Pooraka. Maybe we can sign him as a ruckman. Huh.
Stephen Rowe: He'd be better than that Gorringe bloke. Can't play. I'm glad we showed him the door. So what about our coach?
Andrew Fagan: We've eliminated Bickley. Spoke to the players, who told us he can't coach and is a tosser of a bloke.
Stephen Rowe: I don't believe for a minute that the players had anything to do with this decision. I reckon this is the Adelaide football club finally standing up and being ruthless. And not before time.
Mark Ricciuto: Didn't you say we were too ruthless when we sacked Sando, even when every listed player filed through our door and said "him or me"?
Stephen Rowe: I don't believe for a minute that the players had anything to do with that decision. I reckon this is the Adelaide Football Club finally standing up and being ruthless. And not before time.
Mark Ricciuto: You are delusional. No Sando, no Bickley, though the latter has a contract as an assistant for 2015.
Stephen Rowe: What about Campo? He was a great get. We should be throwing the kitchen sink at him.
Andrew Fagan: Roo, please continue.
Mark Ricciuto: Brendan Bolton says he's not ready.
Stephen Rowe: Who?
Mark Ricciuto: The Hawthorn assistant.
Stephen Rowe: Roo? Why can't we offer him a senior assistant to help out? A Craigy, an Ayresy, a Kerley, those sorts of blokes?
Mark Ricciuto: Goodwin gave me the same excuse. Not ready. It's probably getting down to Bassett and Dew.
Nigel Smart: Hmm, worried about the brand with Dew. Probably too successful for our supporters to please them. From the other club, etc. etc.
Stephen Rowe: I reckon Bassett. I had a text message last night saying we must get him. Throw the kitchen sink at him. Get him here. I tell ya what: I reckon we'd get that Gorringe bloke for sure if Bass came. Danger would probably stay for 2015. Let's go for it. Let's draw the line in the sand. The 19th Man is on board.
Rob Chapman: When do we make a decision? I suppose we can't next week, as we'll all be listening to Trade Radio to see if Danger wants to go. Look, before we wrap it, what is happening by way of marketing. Any luck on those NEVER PULL US TOGETHER T-shirts?
Nigel Smart: We are considering a lot of things. We've just hired a company to look into that sort of stuff.
Rob Chapman: And it's costing us a bloomin' fortune.
Andrew Fagan: Not Leigh Whicker again?
Rob Chapman: Nah, some mob from Melbourne.
Nigel Smart: Yeah, Gemba.
Andrew Fagan: Oh geez, that's James Hird's mob.
Stephen Rowe: Who's James Hird?

Nice new profile pic LR....what's this thread about again?
Stuff be getting crazy over there in HK. What's the feel LR? I see you can still get on the interweb so Beijing haven't gone full totalitarian on you yet!
At present I'm not venturing away from my desktop at home, reading BF and listening to SEN / 3AW / 5aa for the latest on Essendrama and glancing incessantly at the TV news and then at my new Nancy Kwan avatar which HaroldOliver seems to think might in fact be me...

No trams running. Taxi routes screwed up. Long walk to the MTR. Call me a couch potato.

I well remember the Beijing Spring of 1989. Got involved here in the protest marches myself that Sunday, June 4. Those were hairy times - considering Beijing was going to take over here eight years later.

This time there are a number of the same parameters in place. We need cool heads at the top of all participating institutions. Hopefully, boredom will set in, an interim deal will be reached and the streets will clear. The most worrying parallel between 1989 and now is that the students, those innocent young minds who always mean well, are in a position to again have their cause hijacked by older heads with ulterior motives.

You mean you're not Nancy Kwan and I've been stalking you for no good reason?
But seriously, keep safe LR and here's hoping there's a good and peaceful outcome for everyone in HK.

cRowey: "Rachael Le-ashar."

Bone: "Le-ah-car."

Now the producer has to write it down phonetically on a piece of paper...
Leahcar is just Rachael backwards. How did Stupid get an S in there?*
