Tippett's Gone - READ RULES BEFORE POSTING

[CrowsB4hoes]

Yep. It's hard enough competing in a cut throat and lopsided league without having campaigners sabotage you from within. It's mind boggling that they lasted as long as they did.

Giving up those draft picks was just dumb dumb dumb

 

[Samcro24]

Can't recall the exact details, but was a lot better than what Sydney were offering, til the mess was uncovered.

Was an earliesh pick like #8, so you could be right.

It was Reid's clause

Reid the father. But let's not pretend Trigg didn't have oversight

 

[AFC3000]

Regardless of how he left the club, having an injury end your career must be tough.

I think we should all take a second to appreciate everything he's achieved since leaving us...

Ok well I didn't need the full second to do that.

 

[Huntercrow]

You have to nominate that you want to be a F/S so with Kurt reading all your fond farewells on here, I'm sure he'd be encouraging his son/s to stick their hand up for the Crows.

Or they could nominate as a Swans or Gold Coast academy player

Looks like we're clearing the decks for Tom Lynch FA later this year, the Gold Coast Tom Lynch that is!

The problem with recruiting his kids is the possibility that he may get involved with their contract negotiations.....no thanks.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

All Crows draftees should be told about the legend of Skirt. The player who thought they could leave for riches and success but died (in the career sense) an unfulfilled man.

And not told the story of Gunston

 

[Mike Smyth]

Enjoy your retirement scumbag.

So Billy Longer and Sam Docherty were too high a price

With Redden & Polec untouchable

All 4 players left Brisbane for peanuts in return

Maybe Noble actually is an upgrade over there

 

[Corvus]

So this is how the Swans dort out the Buddy contract cash dilemna. Not allowed to do this with big Bud do chuck Tiprat out. Got yo give it to em, always finding an angle

 

[fairfooty]

Tell you what, this bloke is in for one helluva shock when he hits the real world. He's now going to have to work for a crust - unless Daddy bankrolls him.

 

[jenny61_99]

Under most circumstances, I think fanbases tend to overreact when a player leaves them.

This is not one of those cases. Your blokes were absolutely ****** over by a player that had a substantial opinion of himself.

So this opposition fan can very much appreciate the satisfaction you may have knowing that his career ultimately amounted to very little.

Stop it Jade... I might have to like you.

 

[jenny61_99]

What's a betting there'll be a book in the not too distant future?

Yeah me too.

Yeah... nah. Requires a little cognitive ability to write a book - even with a ghost writer!

Yeah that's pretty bad in hindsight. I was just looking from ol anchor's point of view.

They're just not budging on 8 Steven, so my hands are tied.

Would require literacy.

Or a ghost writer I suppose.

[On The Crouch]

Remember the date 22 January 2018.

The date that the Crows' season was launched.

The date that Tippett's career was torched.

Quite a contrasting day for the Crows and Tippett.

He never has to set foot in Adelaide again.

Not sure who's more excited - us or him.

He can finally go home to the Gold Coast to count his millions with new found friend, Tomic.

It turns out they both have a lot in common.

Wow, pick 8 not enough! Sam Mayes taken at 8 that year.
We could have taken Grundy, Broomhead, Kennedy, Menzel, Vlaustin....ok, so only Grundy is any good but all ended up with is....

Because he looks like a hobbit with that stupid hairstyle.

So you're saying they still need someone literate?

Just saw it....WTF! Amazing

 

[Jack is Back]

I would personally like to thank $kirt for his contribution to the AFC.

If he had agreed to the 5 years X $900K contract from the Crows, we would have had to squeeze out one or two very good players to fit under the salary cap. Sydney have been contenders every year since he joined them and he has contributed SFA. We now have one of the best playing lists in the AFL, IMHO.

Back in 2012 Trigg and his band of merry men eat up all the bullshit and lies from the Tippetts. Half of He AFL knew he was leaving before the start of the 2012 season but we were in self denial (the switch to Sydney for a bigger bag of gold was a bit of a surprise). I believe that our club emerged from the whole sorry saga as a stronger, more mature club.

Amazing catch, I only just saw it after you mentioned it.
