I only mentioned that to some people this morning.

I've been down to Melrose Park along South Road, back up to Hilton, up to Dulwich and back to Torrensville and I've seen probably 3 or 4 shops/servos with colours out the front. Even to and from work it's one chick in a little Festiva with a scarfe as the only one I've seen this week.

I thought there was way more Crows nuffs than that. I'm sure there is.

Don't even care how petty that is.... They are the first, followed by the port supporters to get stuck into me. :lol:

But for the small amount of good crow supporters I know I would like them to win for them.


Thanks mate, appreciate it ;)

That being said, too many good people that I know will get an enormous about of joy from a Crows win, so Im supporting them tomorrow and hope they have a good win. The betting markets are very generous so will at least make some coin out of a win also.


I think the people within the confines of the club would dispute that, quite heavily in fact.

Note that he replaced Sanderson who was slowly taking Adelaide in the wrong direction, it wasn't a happy club under Sanderson. Walsh in a very short time righted that ship, he quickly replaced van Berlo with Walker to point the club in a new direction and you can tell how the players speak of him he immediately captured their attention.

Also, speak to any of the Port Adelaide or West Coast boys who had him as a mentor / assistant coach and they'll tell you how much of an influence he was. Very highly regarded man by many.

If it was just that, I'd agree.

But it was also Dean Bailey, Sauce's brother, Brent Riley's accident and now even Brodie Smith's injury.

They've been put through a football grinder.


Seriously? a lot of this stuff happens in footy clubs at any level.

A senior coach gets murdered by their son at other clubs?

Brent Reillys injury was nearly 3 seasons ago.

Bailey joins Adelaide as senior assistant in 2011, passes away in 2014
Walsh joins Adelaide as senior coach in 2014, murdered in 2015

You reckon lots of this happens in footy clubs of any level?

Again, tragic.

However yes, people die and accidents/injuries happen.

Doesn't need to be about his impact from a football perspective. Those young lads would have been very close to PW and lost him overnight. Nothing could have prepared them for that.

This wasn't an accident or some workplace injury. This was murder at a pretty gruesome level.

You don't understand the hatred between Richmond and Carlton then. Carlton supporters will get behind the Crows as will many Collingwood and Essendon fans

Didnt say that, moreso I think it is taking away the impact Pyke has had on the group.
