Time to unite!!

Postby Booney » Tue Apr 13, 2010 7:34 am

It's time to unite! C'mon Crow fans it's time to draw together,draw on the fighting spirit of the fans who went before you for now, now you face the most perilous position this 20 year old club has faced. Yes folks, this is make or break time for the Adelaide Crows.

A call to arms if you will. Get your brightest tri-colours on and head to Footy Park this Saturday to help this club begin its charge back to AFL finals football.Just dont go home a little early....

And to think Eddie McGuire had the cheek to call us a backwater state when we have cutting edge news like this on page 3 of our newspaper.

Don't know what all the fuss is about, seems like a reasonable article to me. :lol:

Seriously though - a perochial article maybe, but nothing to be embarrassed about. I'm sure there's been similar written in the Geelong rag over the years REB.

Meh.

Any newspaper that calls itself 'The Advertiser' has problems in my book. Really, all of this Crow baiting is redundant at the moment because all of the laughs are being generated on the field these days.

Yep, but Geelong is a one team town with a chromosome set to match. ;)

At least Rucci didn't write this one.

Judging by last weeks attendance figures I thought Adelaide was a one team town, unless you count Mr Tarpoline and his mate Plastic Sheet. ;)

23,000 is about our number. If you want to have a dip at crowd figuers, only 35,000 @ Dogs V Hawks. Thats a poor return in comparison to Port V Brisbane in Adelaide. Our numbers aren't that bad.

Oh hang on.........

Meanwhile in the "thriving international city" that is Melbourne the ENTIRE front page of today's Herald Sun is devoted to three richmond players. I didn't read the entire story but from what I can gather they are being fined for impersonating AFL footballers.
