Kurt will never play for the Swans because the world is ending on the 21st of Dec 2012.

Actually its the 21st of December in South America. Depending on what time on the 21st in South America that the workd comes to an end, it won't actually happen until the 22nd here.

So in reality, we might all have an extra day of existence!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:
 
Worked out my percentage at 41%. And most of my other posts are on 'It's time to go Trigg' and other related stuff.

Me, obsessed?

The interesting thing is coming in at number 23 on the list is someone who doesn't even follow the Crows, our GC fried IVA BIGUN. And Juzzo has made a fine contribution.

You? Obsessed? Never!!! You're just an insomniac like the rest of us at this hour of the morning. :p

As to our opposition friends, Iva, juzzo and Membling ( although he has had a quiet final quarter) , must be some sort of record for decent posting on an opposition board surely? Stabby where's that morse code of yours? :D

After everything has been said and done the only real losers are the supporters, players and coaches of the AFC.

Its just staggering to me how things turned out.

To be honest I am just glad i do not support your team ... I would be completely gutted by the whole outcome.

Why be glad you dont support adelaide? Last time i checked we made a prelim last year, lost some dead wood added crouch who would have been a possible top 5 pick and have a team that includes walker, mackay, dangerfield, sloane, smith, henderson, jacobs, wright and talia, all of which are under 25 years old. I think our future looks pretty bright. imagine if we had 10 first round picks on our list, it would be a scary prospect AND not to forget we have lost gunston, bock, davis and weakdog tippett.

Yeah, If I was a Carlton supporter like you, I would hate to support a team like Adelaide that got done for salary cap breaches...oh wait...

I think the others have mis-interpreted the message that you were trying to convey here, as unlike them I didn't read it as a slur on being an Adelaide supporter - rather that you meant that out of this mess, the Adelaide Footy club and its supporters have suffered the greatest losses, and I agree with that.

Firstly we have lost a 202 cm mobile CHF, and they are rare - and lost him for nothing. As supporters we have felt betrayed and spurned by Tippett who always led us to believe that the only reason he would ever leave Adelaide was to go home to his beloved Gold Coast - which we have since found out is a suburb of Sydney in NSW, as Tippett wouldn't lie to his team-mates and supporters, would he. In spite of not having lived there, Tippett then tried to claim that it was home because a) he was born there, and b) he had once done a dump on Bondi Beach in the water without anyone knowing. Strong qualifications indeed. :rolleyes:

Further to that he informed his team-mates in a gutless manner and lied to his club saying they would get his answer re staying or going face to face - they got a phone call instead.

Then we had to endure the Tippett camp inspired humiliation of being held to ransom by that "fair trading club" Sydney - who now in my mind are clearly the arseholes of the AFL - offering no more than a 2nd round pick equivalent plus we would have had to take Jesse White (*crosses himself and says 3 Hail Mary's that never happened*.)

Naturally the AFL became suspicious and then came the admissions of cheating.

Then of course, there are the further 4 lost draft picks and the $300k fine, plus the embarrassment that goes with your club being found out to be a cheat, even be it on the lesser scale of cheating.

We have also as supporters lost faith and trust in key operators at the footy club as well, who also have to carry the cheating stigma with them for at least some period of time before it is replaced by something more odious and sensational.

Then you add to that, we also have the chagrin that Tippett not only wants to go to Sydney, he nominates a huge salary and gets to the club of his choice, Sydney, anyhow.

So yes, it is staggering the way that things turned out, and yes, as you can tell by the size of this thread, many of our supporters are gutted and pissed off by the whole outcome.

The only part of your post that I disagree with is about being glad that you don't support our team.

In spite of everything that has happened, I think that as our playing stocks are in such good shape, and are supported by an excellent coaching team, that we Adelaide supporters have plenty of good times to look forward to in 2013.

All good Macca, i did get the jist of what brazilblue was saying - I was just being a smart arse myself. But glad you were able to get this off your chest, and largely agree with all you say...and and extra post in this thread. Build that %
 
Still bewildered that we're accused of draft tampering ....but Tippett can refuse to meet with clubs or do medicals ...and construct a salary that guarantees him passage to Sydney

Someone tell me how this is not player tampering with the draft process ....please!!!
