Yeah, I haven't known of too many champions tanking the last few games before leaving a club, you'd think that there's only one way to play a game of footy.

I think they should announce it now, nobody would question him going to or being at the BnF or the Brownlow as an Adelaide Crow. Technically, he is a Crow until October 31 regardless.

agree, no crow fan would care if he announced it now and then still sat with the crows at these events.

Like you'd go out and play a GF half-arsed, I was more referring to the manner of how he ended up at Sydney, it reeked, similar to if Paddy goes to anywhere except Geelong.

Agree - If Dangerfield goes he joins, Gunston, Davis & that blonde bloke who went to the Suns - can't recall his name.....Are there others on this list I have missed????.... Why other clubs can seem to keep them, but one leaves the crows just about every season, or so it seems.... questions??

Bock and Tippett might be worth adding to that.
Throw in Maric leaving because Jacobs arrived and Vince getting squeezed out to gain draft picks lost from Tippett-gate, list management isn't a strong point at the swamp.
Tippett
Bock
Gunston
Davis
Vince
Maric

It was for pick #23, which they got Matt Crouch with.

You would have to say as it stands, they would have been better off keeping Vince!

And you guys are right, if you could add Tippett Gunston and Davis back into our team it probably makes us a top 4 side.
Definitely been an issue holding talent in the past few years
