Hahaha……oh my sides, you’re too funny! Did you come up with that yourself or did your Mum help you with that?
You’re as funny and original as a Victorian comedian doing Adelaide jokes.

I've always found the reserves teams tend to lack the want and desire to go that extra yard compared to the Sanfl teams. If Sturt really smash in I can see them winning. The young Crows just wont go in because they have an AFL preseason to come back to in November.

Agree .....also, there's a bit of "let's show these AFL upstarts a thing or two" ......extra incentive
I dont have a problem with it. The crows are playing for their AFL futures but the Sanfl clubs all play for the premiership. Totally different mindset come finals.

All good POV's .....what about a good Finals series by a couple of Crows players ....could pencil their name in for R1 next year
A great game by Newchurch could even save his career ......

For sure. I think it will put some players names up the potential for AFL list. But that will get sorted in pre season. Anything could happen though. Crows could come out and win this thing. Rowies head will explode if that ever happens. He'd be the first one at the club with a pitch fork trying to run us out of town.

BTW .....I think we have next to no chance of winning a SANFL GF, as the setup currently is .....too many kids & top-ups
We probably don't treat the games like finals either where as you have a hundred plus years of history drilled into the players from the other clubs. My prediction is we go out in straight sets or out in the preliminary. But wouldnt surprise me if we snuck into the GF either.

Crouch doesn't want to do a Doedee
Lots of respect to Hately and Brown for playing even thoguh out of contract. Hately may be a good one for captain for next year

So... what do people make of Crouch not playing?
Sensible decision that everyone within the club will fully understand? Or a disgraceful lack of loyalty?
Given the reaction on here from almost everyone when Jacobs didn't play in similar circumstances I'm interested to see whether the level of vitriol will be topped

I don't care.
He hasn't got a contract, I suspect most in the same position would do the same.
And on that note, maybe it was the clubs call not Matt's?

Jacobs was done, he played one more year, Crouch has years ahead of him, the loss of potential earnings is far more significant, plus he hasn’t been a regular like Jacobs was.
Besides Jacobs had a job here lined up anyway.
Neither do brown or Hately. Yet they will still play.
Brown and Hately are unlikely to be getting courted by other AFL clubs, nor likely to be in any discussions right now over a future contract with Adelaide
And again, a lot of folk seem to automatically place the blame on the player. For all we know it could be a decision made by the club

You spin it, Fonz!
Not a fan of it
At some level I wonder if its to pacify the SANFL ..?
They probably tolerate us playing finals, but genuinely want a GF between 2 of the tradition teams
