You do realise Ports reputation is rising, whereas the Crows are making themselves out to be cockheads....

Eventually the tables could turn, and Port might be wearing the State guernsey, coz they'll be the "team for all South Australians"

Won't happen


That's what west coast said about Freo and look how close that's getting

With that arrogance of yours you could be mistaken for trigg

Well, off-field success could make it easier to afford the tarps. I guess that's a positive.

I think its because of all the negativity that comes from people who live in SA. Most of what is written on this forum is negative whether it be about the Crows, Power, SA Cricket, SA Soccer etc.

Get this:

SANFL club presidents are questioning why they were not consulted. Norwood president Joe Tripodi told The Advertiser: "We should have been notified and consulted."

Why? So you could disregard your members wishes and sell them out? Again?

Maybe from the SANFL but not from the Crows, should never have got this far in the 1st place.

Gotta love G McIntosh's quote about the Crows: "That's what happens when people in bullshit castles make bullshit decisions".

WRONG!
It's because those clubs are run by peanuts and in the case of most of them supported by peanuts.
Adelaide City and the 36ers have done quite well at times.

"SANFL club presidents are questioning why they were not consulted.

Also in question is why the SANFL administration did not pass Adelaide's request to the SA Football Commission in the first place."

So Whicker didn't let the commission or the SANFL clubs know of this decision? Just how much hubris does Whicker and the AFC have?

I'm pretty sure that if I could be bothered going through the basketball thread I'd find negative things written about the 36ers.
The crows, power, redbacks & united all have done quite well at times as well but that doesn't stop the crap being written.

Isn't it amazing former South Australian football greats who wore that jumper before the crows came into existence talked down on the crows wearing it. Honestly what right do the crows have of wearing that Jumper sweet F.A. correct me if I am wrong and I will be happily corrected but weren't the crows at the time against State of Origin football? Weren't they complaining that their "Stars" May get injured in a meaningless game and pretty much killed it. Now they want to claim the rights to that jumper. I got two words for them **** OFF. I am a Victorian and even I disagreed with the Crows wearing that jumper. That would be like the Western Bulldogs demanding the AFL they should be allowed to wear the big white V because Teddy Whitten wore that jumper 31 times and the was the chairman of selectors. I am glad the SANFL have finally stood up to the crows and said no to them. To all you crow Wanks saying the Crows were founded on 9 clubs it was 10 people forget Woodville. Also the crows were only founded because Port went to the AFL and said OI we want in. The then SANFL crapped themselves and hastily made the crows up so that they could prevent the Magpies getting into the AFL. Port played the hand the AFL wanted. Because back in 1986 the then VFL wanted a SA team with a WA team into the VFL and they were told the South Australian public are not ready for VFL football. Even as far back as 1981 when a combined Port-Norwood side was offered South Melbourne's VFL License and the SANFL turned it down.
No AFL team has the right to a State jumper West Coast copped flack for wearing the WA one back in 2007 and the last time the crows did try this stunt they has to ADD the AFC on the front as the SANFL then said no to them using SA. The team for all South Australian is just a marketing stunt much like The University of Texas using we are Texas.

What a shame the 2 AFL reserves sides entering the SANFL didn't get the same response as this (comparatively small) issue. :(
