Fages emerging is as significant as making a grand final

Should fages and significant be used in the same sentence

Should fages and significant be used in the same sentence

I'll rephrase that.
"Fages emerging is as significant as losing a grand final"

On the balance a good result for the Crows. Five years is obviously the biggest risk but they needed something like that to get him over the line. After Dangerfield, Tippett, Davis, Lever et. al. they had to start changing the narrative about big names fleeing. If he can manage his injury they will get value as he is a great player and universally liked, especially if they fully capitalise on this and pull the pin on Walker as captain and give it to Sloane. The biggest downside is that there was a good chance that Silvagni would have jumped at Sloane plus Adelaide's first for Pick 1.

Both great South Australians I'll have you know!

I vaguely remember Fluffy was a Port man, but Mike was Norwood, very one-eyed.

I agree. Them keeping Sloane is a good thing for them. At a club with such a poor club culture losing guys like Sloane is soul destroying.

Apparently a group of crows fans are trying to get a standing ovation happening at the 9 minute mark tomorrow night....

I hope this doesn't mean the Hawks get Gaff or Lynch. Anyone but the Hawks for those two please.

I heard the Hawksnhave a lot of cap space and then or Richmond cashing Lynch. Maybe Gaff too!

Don’t worry the rest of the supporters will tell them to sit down and be quiet.

Well that nice heartfelt thing we did has really taken a nose dive into a pile of shit when other teams chose to butcher its original intent in world sport.

They should have a minutes applause at the start of the game (0:00) for the amount of kicks Curtly Hampton got last week, or for the amount of wins their SANFL side has.

Is that a joke?

Yep and back up again at the 18 minute mark for Eddie’s return to the side.

 

[pastmyprimus]

The reaction of Crow fans when a high profile Victorian re-signs: That feels better than a GF win
The reaction of Port fans when a high profile Victorian re-signs: Oh that's nice. Who are we playing on Saturday.

 

[CharlieKelly]

Consider it done.

Great, now I'll be pressing ctrl+R all day

 

[Chachi]

Terrific news that Sloane has re-signed. Big dollars and they don't get another good pick.
We just need to find a way to snare Rankine.

 

[Alberton Proud]

Are there 48 minutes in any quarter ?

You know, just to acknowledge that milestone too

They should play Desperado as their pre-match anthem. Sad.

Don't tell me Carlton's fan copied us for Simpson's 300th

 

[Adz2332]

wonder how long the crows supporters will take for the joy of him signing to wear off and the dread that they will be paying him well into his 30s.... scott thomson mark 2. just more cash involved

are you talking about Ian Fairweather of Channel 9 fame? A Port man?!! All I'm hearing is Billie Holiday in that case...
