you forget to mention ... Here we go, here we go Camry Crows :lol:

In all seriousness, I can't see how Tippet would be embraced by the great culture at the Swans, plus he's not worth anywhere near the money, but good luck to them if they pick him up.

Nah. Tippett won't destroy your club culture at all. You don't even need him. It's hard enough to go back to back without introducing Cancer to your club.

If he was five or six years older he'd have gone to Hawthorn. :lol:

True, but the only thing he did wrong was sign a shonky contract, then expect it to be fulfilled by the other party. Other than that, he has hardly been a "bad person".

agreed..... could be a handy inclusion in the later half of the season for a a tilt at back to back [-o< . him and reid up forward could be very dangerous. plus chuck in morton, goodes and some of the swans small forwards... plus he can help in the ruck... if none of this crows/tippett ordeal and just went to the swans on a normal trade happened, everyone wouldn't be carrying on and would say it's a decent pick up!!!

You have changed your tune WUB12. As soon as he mentioned he wanted Sydney, you were not happy at all. Saying he is overrated and everything. Couple weeks on and this now? surely you don't need him. I seriously can't believe he is going to the Swans (the reigning premiers) and is going to be the highest paid player. I think this could definitely effect the clubs culture

i still think he's overrated and think we dont need him... over payed and as ive said to someone the other day, if or when he comes to the club i'll have to look at the positives. nothing i can do about it... BUT i would love to see him do good only to piss off the crows supporters :lol: ... im sticking to the point that the swans have a great record of turning some troublesome players or players struggle at other clubs to good footballs. i.e lockett, hall, mattner, shaw just to name a few... so im hoping our record continues...

Not that hard to go back to back REB, Hawks 88-89, Crows 97-98, Lions 01-02-03, all the great teams of the last 25 years have done it.
Throw in the dogs 00-01, 03-05, 07-10.
Perhaps a more accurate statement would be its hard enough for your teams to go back to back ;)

Well he was hardly honest and innocent himself, despite his current claims.
He did say that the driving issue was wanting to go home to Qld, then later decide Sydney was "home"... :lol:

We already got the Crows best forward and he's 5 or 6 years younger than Tippet
