Why on earth would you pick us?

Great coach, only way is up, gets to play with Lachie Murphy, what more could he want

Why on earth would you pick us?

Players aren't as emotional as fans.

We're still the biggest club in SA, if that's where you want to return to.

Players want to play finals

We are 7 years and counting from there and going backwards

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Not that I care much about Luko but this is another example of Nicks's extension ****ing us over. We can't sell the message that things will get better and we have a clean slate etc. Instead it's "come here and play for loser coach Matthew Nicks

Rumour on 5AA Keane has walked out in the club

why wouldn’t Luko love Murphy, our playing group does

they are the morons that voted him into the leadership group

when selecting a club what’s important is what’s going to be there role in the team, and what’s the size of their contract

not sure why people are stressing, so many people commented on here that Luko is not elite and only worth a 2nd round pick

Josh Rachele - “too selfish, doesn’t show team first values”

Mark Keane - “please don’t leave us. Don’t worry about playing the last game, celebrating the end of season with your team mates, attending the best and fairest. You do you, and see you in November”

Keane has walked out.


But yeah, interesting if the above rumour not true.

One player dropped the other allowed to finish season early and leave the country.


Leadership Group pick and choose who needs to be a team man?




Even Jokic hangs around for a couple of days after the Nuggets season, preferring to be in Serbia.

Reckon Keane is the type of guy that wouldn't put up with any bullshit.

I'd suggest the reality might be different from the perception. We have as a club been into lukosius for a long time and have sent the delegation up there to speak with his management. But also lukosius has had port contact his management and shock horror, his team spoke to them too. Now it could be because he is desperate to not play for the crows if he leaves GC or, conspiracy theory time i know, it could be to see what sort of offer and role port might be offering before he makes up his mind on what he would like to do with all the information at hand. Personally, i will run with the conspiracy theory option on this one.

It certainly looks odd in that there was literally no comment or statement even provided by Keane..

It also makes no sense that he’s ’walked out’ because he has a year left on his contract, we’ve put one in front of him, and he’s publicly come out and said his preference is to stay here. By all reports the contract we put in front of him was 3-4 years.

The only scenarios I can think of is either:

A) there is a family reason and we’ve let him head back early. If this was the case you’d expect the player themselves to release something and be like ‘hey Crows fans, heading back to Ireland to attend to some family stuff, can’t wait to be back… blah blah’
B) we have an in principle agreement to trade him elsewhere and have just released him to get a game into someone else…
C) some sort of fractious event has happened and he HAS up and left, which is a terrible move for his own career

I think the bloke who said that said it after the teams were announced. So he could just be pulling their leg or he's put 2 and 2 together and come up with 17

Or he actually has intel?!?!?!

You know that could be an option too!

Or D) Keane is a players player who calls a spade a ****ing shovel and he avidly speaks up in support of players and over the last 12 months he has witnessed some appalling player management, the Rachele debacle was the last straw probably after Curtins mistreatment, he demanded an explanation and told Nicks to **** off after his answer was full of bullshit as we would all expect.

 

[DJ75]

Will he 'quit' the club, go home to Ireland, tell us he's not returning, only to try to pop up again at a Melbourne club?

Bottom line is there is a clear stink at the club.
Thankfully, Silvers extensive review couldn't find any piles of dogshit, so the smell must be coming from somewhere else. All is good everyone

 

[Bazz_27]

On Keane, people said he trained yesterday. SO why would he train and then walk out of the club? Why would he bother going to training? Like you are going to quit work but first you want to just work for the day first?

 

[El Doederino]

Reckon Keane is the type of guy that wouldn't put up with any bullshit.

He’s also come from Collingwood so knows a culture working towards a premiership compared to ours

Something does not smell right here. Until the club or the player announce he has left, I am holding fire on this, it seems like chinese whispers going on.

 

[Hell Boy6669]

It also could be that Keane said he will sign but wants to return home to be in Ireland as long as possible

 

[Crow till I die]

My only gripe with that is why not just play one more game to finish the season off then head home a day or 2 later. I am sure he would not be looking at skyscanner to see which day of the week / month was the cheapest to get plane tickets.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Rumour on 5AA Keane has walked out in the club

Yeah, and listening further, you’re left with the impression it was a PORT supporter trolling

You can’t trust any off these anonymous callers claiming inside knowledge

 

[bmac84]

Reckon Keane is the type of guy that wouldn't put up with any bullshit.

Unless there’s some physical contact involved, then he could take it or leave it

 

[Mutineer]

And we could just go with (personal reasons) which it states on the team sheet. Generally when a player misses for personal reasons it's almost always family based.
