Welcome Welcome to Adelaide: Isaac Cumming

[kirky]

Richmond also beat the Grand Finalists Sydney....just sayin'

Very early in season and on the MCG (Round 3).

They didnt lose much early in that part of the year.

TBH that says more about Sydneys issues at the SCG.

 

[LoBu]

Well if this is the case, I’ll put my hand up. I had as good intel as you could get that he favored ports. Happy to be wrong.

You got me worried more than any other reports of progress.

 

[Crows I Am]

Very happy that Cumming has picked us. Didn't really know too much about him before his name was linked to us, but after watching some highlights and reading about him from posters on here, seems like a great get.

The biggest thing for me is that we have managed to get him via free agency and not had to give up anything. FA is the best way to bring players in to the club. We have not been great in this regard, so to get this one over the line is very nice.

We should be using this acquisition to pressure Laird to **** off.

A ruthless club would.

I know what we will do.

 

[StonesThrow]

So you’ve included posts with “if” “would be”. Ie if we didn’t get Cumming, not that we would haven’t got Cumming.

Yeah some, but it's still getting hysterical over baseless rumours. This place was days of our lives this past week.

People just need to chill out and wait for credible information.

BTW you know me, I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the club. I just don't jump at shadows.

We'll soon coach that enthusiasm out of him.

You mean MCG. They did beat Collingwood and Hawthorn early in the year at MCG.

Reckon the MCG does provide issues for Swans and is why I’m backing Brisbane to win Saturday.

And what do we do?

What, say we will play you in the Reserves?

 

[LoBu]

just on this last point (not the previous million messages)

i dont agree these aren't connected
shaw 1996
blight 1997

virtually same list
compare the pair

Shaw brought in most the players that Blighty used to deliver the premiership.

 

[Peter Doherty]

And what do we do?

What, say we will play you in the Reserves?

Yep.

Yes the wrong G.

I'm also of your opinion on Saturday.

Cumming to pursue Crows move in free agency

People on here seriously under-rating his consistency

We are a team that lacks leadership and consistency, he will help us become a more consistent team

Both of these players have played in teams that have finals success.

Is this statement a bit bland? Doesn't have much excitement about it.

I don't think these nomination statements typically have much excitement

They do once they're made official

It's better than the ANB one, we didn't even post a graphic with his picture. Just the club logo

 

[jenny61_99]

You guys had your eyes closed yesterday. Here are just a few bed wetters from both the Cumming rumours and the Draper one. This was only from a few pages. Pretty sure there were a couple of comments about burning the place down can't remember which thread and if related to Cumming or Draper.

We absolutely have bed wetters littered throughout this board that jump at shadows and believe anything.

Thanks for proving my point. . Every single time, their instant reaction is to chuck a tanty and harp away at the Club for something that hasn’t even happened! But when the thing they’ve melted about hasn’t happened (in fact the opposite), they’ll still find another reason to pot the club.

GWS Giant Isaac Cumming has advised Adelaide of his desire to join the Club as an unrestricted free agent!

The 26-year-old has played 81 games for GWS since being drafted with Pick No.20 in 2016!

Adelaide will complete the process of signing Cumming when the AFL’s free agency period opens from October 4!!!

 

[Cromulant]

I'm sure there will be a better one once we've completed the paperwork.

It's just an acknowledgement at this stage.

 

[jenny61_99]

lol, you mean the media who you bag and call posters on here bed wetters when they believe negative Crows stories, those pundits

Hang on… the difference is I’m not running around like an idiot declaring the sky is falling in based on what the “media” say when the sky, in fact, is still up there, am I? If it turns out Perryman goes to Port and not the Pies then I’ll go, oh there you go, they got another one wrong. There’s no bedwetting here.

 

[Viva la Mattner]

This is good news, I reckon even in 2022 I was on the we need to get Cumming bandwagon, glad we finally have.

We’d been in his ear since then

This sounds like that old economist joke...

Normal person: It was harder in practice
Economist: Ahh, but was it harder in theory?

Surprised you'd even go there with your record? One of the first to scream from the hill tops or try to moderate other people's posts if it doesn't suit your opinion.

 

[Bring back Bas]

Interesting take and certainly not getting a half back flanker won't make or break the club. It was more the optics of NOT getting him and losing out again to the mob down the road. Supporters need to be sold hope and if they see that their club cannot attract players of worth and see their arch rivals snaffling them, it gets rather depressing. Very glad he chose us and it bends that narrative away now as we will nail 2 off season targets and we should have a good draft infront of use to look forward to as well. That sells hope to supporters who have had enough of the underperforming we have been told to swallow of late.

I get where you are coming from but what you are describing is an over-reaction from a supporter. I would much prefer decision makers within the club be making what they deem to be the best decisions to achieve on-field success rather than aiming to appease overly emotional supporters.
