Just makes him look like a goose! Sits there preaching the Crows want to be like them, yet he is following the same blue print Eddie Everywhere has written over his time as President and Media personality. Very much a hypocrite!

Who cares. Kochie is constantly making himself sound like an idiot so let him continue to do that.

How so? By looking at the club review and taking the appropriate action? The Suns have done the same thing, are they idiots too?

Yes it was swift and harsh, although not idiotic.

How has club been managed since about 2009? They think they run this town and they can't even run a bloody chook raffle!

CEO kept his job after being involved with the biggest salary cap since Carlton.

Jumper gate this year with resulting back flip.

Alleged stand over tactics to get what they wanted regarding reserve teams even then back flipping on the desired voting outcome.

How was it handled badly? Again, it was a quick and aggressive decision but i thought the club handled it well considering it was leaked to 5AA which sparked a media frenzy

I agree that the proof will be in the pudding and we need to see how the new coach (Walsh) goes and how the players respond, results mean everything in the footy world. Hopefully the 'Tiser and some fans dont jump the gun and hail us as Premiership favourites after a couple of wins - athough that might be asking a little too much.

Fair call there Heater, cant argue with those things.

New CEO, new board members, new coach, no doubt some new assistant coaches - hopefully a new and better era for the Crows.

Yeah cause systematically cheating year on year to the tune of $1m vs promising a trade to a club of his choice and a 30k sponsorship with Balfours not declared on the salary cap when if declared would fall inside the salary cap are similar :shock:

Only because it was the Adelaide FC, and we are in Adelaide, with Adelaide media, heater.

But they had staff suspended, a player suspended, fined and lost draft picks. Combine those penalties and it is bigger that any of those penalties.
