    Player Watch Hugh Bond - Signed to End of 2025

    Hey, if he turns out to be another Robert Shirley I'd be more than happy. Much underrated player IMO.

    Preview Changes: R3 vs Fremantle

    I'm sorry but that's just not correct. King was a big 'gee' for us last year.

    Great! Thanks for the feedback.

    Preview Changes: R8 vs Carlton - Sunday May 8, 4.10 pm ACST @ Marvel Stadium

    I agree with those ins (and outs, for that matter). Here's a thought - could Hamill play in the middle or is he too light? We're desperately short of pace on ball and he might get his hands on some of those 'outside' balls that we never seem to get to first. His disposal is 'iffy' but he's not...

    List Mgmt. Adelaide Crows 2021 List Management thread

    Re Jordan Dawson - I don't know much about the intricacies of list management but is this a possibility? - we swap our first 2 draft choices with Richmond's. They get our pick 4 and we get their pick 7. In exchange we get their pick 15 and they get our pick 23. We get to keep a top 10 draft...

    List Mgmt. Adelaide Crows 2021 List Management thread

    My apologies if this has been covered before but can anyone explain to me why Alex Keath is not on our list this year? I read where he was apparently keen to stay but (presumably) wanted a 3-year contract instead of 2. Given that we plucked him out of obscurity, put two full years into preparing...

    2nds AFC 2021 SANFL Thread - We're baaaaaaaack (in the SANFL)

    I suspect this is what they get from the SANFL but, you're right, whoever's in charge of these 'highlights' appears to have no interest whatsoever in football. Awful.

    Welcome Kyle Hartigan joins the Hawks in a trade from the Crows

    As a Crows supporter I'm sorry to see him go. Not the most talented player and capable of the odd clanger, but if you ever need someone to stand in the hole Hartigan's your man. He copped a lot of unfair criticism from some quarters for those clangers but was a valuable player for us IMHO. Good...

    Game Day Crows Vs Demons: Youth and home truths.

    I've been keeping my fingers crossed that Fog could be the one to provide a presence up forward but I'm rapidly losing faith. Melbourne's defence broke through two of his tackles last night as though he wasn't there. He's a big, strong guy. That shouldn't happen. It looked lazy more than...

    Player Watch Luke Brown - Retired

    Very unfair to Brown IMHO. One of our better, most-reliable players. Don't forget he's trying to hold back the tide with our midfield getting thrashed for about 5 years now. Speaking of which, I would like to see Nicks release him and let him play some creative football in the midfield for a...

    Game Day Marsh Community Series Game 2: Adelaide v Gold Coast. Friday 7 March @ Flinders University Stadium, 4:20pm

    Like a couple of other posters here I'm intrigued why Schoenberg didn't get a game yesterday. I can only think they reckon he's too young and don't want to expose to the big time too soon. But hey! he seems to have taken everything in his stride up until now, doesn't look out of place at all and...

    News Eddie Betts outta here - every day I get in the queue to get on the bus that takes me to you (too much, Magic Bus)

    If we lose Eddie it'll be yet another sign of us mis-reading our list. Eddie's not the problem. We crabwalk the ball down to the forward 50, neither of our big forwards give a contest in the air, and we blame Eddie for not kicking 50-60 goals! He may not be quite what he was 2 years ago but he's...

    Review R18: Adelaide v Essendon post-mortem (...please don't disturb our team, we're dead tired)

    A "middle-ish rubbish side"?! I'm a Crows supporter but that's just arrogant, isn't it? They were way too fast for us and their kicking was much better than ours. That 'middle-ish rubbish side' just spanked us at home. We need to face facts. If anyone's middle-ish it's us.

    List Mgmt. Mid-Season Draft - Who do we take?

    Couldn't agree more. Always seemed to play well when he got a chance. Good kick, tough player, versatile. I was dumbfounded when they cut him.

    Thanks for the input. Don't know anything about him at all so it's much appreciated.

    Toast Crows steal Troy Menzel, play Andy Otten instead, delist him

    Thank you cookie monster. That sounds like a realistic assessment of the situation to me. I haven't seen very much of Menzel at all but I'm pleased to hear that he has an x factor. As for Kerridge, I think that's a realistic assessment too. A much-underrated player IMHO and I think you've done...

    Past Sam Kerridge

    Yes, he was very unlucky with injury this. Came back mid-season and injured himself again in his first game back! I think he will be a very handy pick-up for you guys. For some inexplicable reason he couldn't break back into the team when he was playing very well in the SANFL. We didn't get to...

    List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

    I think the deal looks like a win-win for both clubs. I didn't know much about Gore before today but he looks like a very good prospect. I've got my fingers crossed. Paddy's obviously a star and a quality person so you've done well too. A big tick for commonsense from both sides. Well done and...
