Won't the Adelaide Oval Name go to the highest bidder anyway.

Realistically one would think AAMI Stadium again...?

Can't change the name without changing the legislation.

North Adelaide residents and Cr. Moran would be up in arms if name change was to be suggested wouldn't they?

The only name it should be changed to is

"WHITE ELEPHANT STADIUM"

The amount of money spent just for an extra 20,000 seats, most of which will be covered in a few years time, is not justified with the hospital systems in such a horrific state. And the money spent on the walk way is ridiculously excessive.

you do realise they are spending 1.5 billy on a new hospital as we speak, and have announced plans for a new womens and childrens as well right?

Not really any extra seats mate.

Footy Park had 51,515 capacity
Adelaide Oval (depending on who you believe) 51,000-54,500

Please stop

On another note, the Crows have decided the SANFL guernsey design is to simply copy the Power's guernsey with the colours changed. Nice job idiots. The whole process reeks of the Crows (Trigg) already having the design chosen but just making the fans feel as though they were part of the decision making process

I reckon we're all crowed an apology eh, Suri?

Yeah and how dare north Melbourne copy Collingwoods guernsey, or Richmond copy Essendons guernsey.

Who cares what they look like. Along as they develop the players so when they get picked from the state league to play AFL they are well versed in game styles and structures.

I think there was V designs before the Power!!!!!

True, I can't believe people are raven about them copying the power

I thought they should have gone for this look.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but what about the Crows reserves having the same Guernsey as their senior team. . I could be wrong but I think all the SANFL clubs reserves have the same Guernsey as their senior team. Crazy concept I know.

Crows AFL jumper would be a dark clash with Norwood, South, Glenelg & West and probably Port

Same hoops style as Central just darker blue

That leaves just Sturt, Eagles & North there is no likeness with ....

Been around long have ya mate, one of the conditions of entry was they were not allowed to wear their AFL guernsey.
Adhering to rules and regulations, crazy concept for the Crows i know

I think the gist of Suri's post was that the "ask the fans for a design" concept was a farce, and they'd made up their minds already.
Personally, I understand where he's coming from, another ploy to fool "the 19th man" into thinking he's part of the team.
I know you follow them so I'm not deliberately trying to stick it up you. I hate the loud speaker at Noarlunga as another example of bullshit that detracts from our great game. The Crows are entering, can't stop it now, but I kindly ask them to leave their bullshit at the door.

Personally I'd rather them just wear their normal guernsey as a new alternate guernsey makes it seem more mickey mouse.
The crows normal guernsey doesn't look similar to any current SANFL guernsey unless you're legally blind, and I know one person who is legally blind who would probably tell the difference too.

So what would have happened of the fans picked a different guernsey to the one that apparently they had already picked?
