    Roast Olsen and the board.

    Is anyone else feeling underwhelmed. He is not delivering anything. He re-signed Nicks - despite overwhelming evidence to suggest otherwise It feels like he just hides behind Silvers, delivers him talking points for PR and disappears. The board has some serious questions to answer and I'm...

    Roast The Golden Ticket Club

    Does it exist? My opinion yes and I do think its detrimental to young player development and the form of experienced players if you continually ignore extended periods of poor form and keep selecting them. Some excuses are they are young, we need to keep them in the side, they are in our next...

    Strategy The season is lost, what should we do with the remaining 19 games?

    All is not lost in our rebuild, I believe it can be resurrected with some short term pain. Nicks shat the bed as he became intent on coaching for his job over building a list that can challenge for the Premiership. I think the club has to draw a line in the sand and put a line through a group...

    Roast Roo has to go and he can take Nicks with him....Sloane, Murphy and Smith can go as well.

    I have longed given Roo the benefit of the doubt as he stood for improving the club. But at what stage is the complete unwarranted extension of Nicks part of this plan. Not once has ever ever showed any improvement other than natural progression in player development. As soon as a squad gifted...

    Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 2) - Full Support of the Board

    Continues from: Opinion - Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach Have a question around this, precarious? WTF kind of wording is that. There is nothing precarious about the AFC and therefor I presume it means dealing with Thebby. Be careful about believing what people say when they are in a mood...

    Opinion AFLW comp structure

    The current structure served the competition well during the startup to gauge interest and keep the competition from being too much too soon. But the women deserve to have their competition align with the mens. Should run at the same time. I dont think having them separate achieves the goals...

    Opinion Selection Nightmares

    Its hard for us on the outer to understand what goes on internally in clubland and the exact issues as to why some players simply dont get selected week after week and often the same excuses get trotted out by the club. 'they have things to work on' 'they aren't doing enough in the sanfl to...

    FTA-TV Bad Sport - Netflix

    Amazingly good series. It completely boggles the mind that some of the main players in the scandals, still find excuses or claim innocence. Well worth the watch, one of the best documentaries out.

    News The Pre Game Media Bias

    I knew that once Richmond made the GF that it will be a Pro Richmond week in the media but I was personally staggered as to how bad it actually was. I have never seen anything like it. The AFL need to be concerned. They are trying to build a national market and it seemed all the national shows...

    Analysis List Management 2018 predictions

    Unfortunately for some of those players on the list we are reaching the point of the year where their services are no longer required. If we are to fit potentially 2 trade / FA players plus have some draft picks I think a minimum of 5 changes will need to be had. Out Scott Thompson - Retired...

    Analysis Will our game plan win finals?

    Short answer is yes its capable! The one major difference between the Crows of the past few years and this year is intensity and a willingness to back themselves in. The tackling pressure is way above anything I have seen for a number of years. I also am finding there is a beautifully...

    15 year anniversary of 9/11

    Well for those that are old enough we probably not only remember this sad event but we remember what we were doing when we first heard about it. In Adelaide it was after 10pm, Tuesday September 11 2001. I was watching tv funnily enough and was chatting on the computer. The next day the city and...

    Analysis Is the original top 8 system better

    Ive thought for a very long time regardless of whether the crows were in the finals or not that the current top 8 system is completely unfair and a disadvantage to teams who finish 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th. I think the original system was fairer when the top 4 played the bottom 4. It was a fairer...

    List Mgmt. The which players will be on the list in 2017 thread?

    Post away. I don't think we will see too many changes to the list. VB - Bit young to retire but does he hold any appeal as a delisted FA? Grigg Jaensch Shaw Probably the only changes to the senior list I can see. Ramsey could be the only change to the Rookie list.

    Analysis The high tackle

    Should the high tackle rule be amended? It appears players are dropping to their knees and lifting their arms in the contest to draw high contact. The high tackle rule was designed to protect players from poor tackling techniques and encourage tackling around the waist. It worked but by...
