Who cares if a few more do.
At least they were representing our state. The Crows do not do that.
I dont support the Crows or the Power, and I dont follow any particular SANFL side, and this still makes me angry.
I am a proud South Australian though, and this jumper is for players from this state (no matter what club they're currently at) representing the state.
I was gonna barrack for Port against the Crows anyway, solely because I like how Port have gone about things in the last year or so, and this has only strengthened my support for Port, and my hate for the Crows.
Now, as a South Australia football fan, Im being told that the Crows are MY team. **** off! No South Australian football fan should ever be made to hate the team wearing the state guernsey, and as long as its being worn by a club (Crows or Port, doesnt matter) theres gonna be South Australians that will not support it.
What kills me they say its their heritage what heritage they have only been around for 23 years this is a club which was spawned from leftover ejaculate after the PAFC tried to enter the big league.
The Crows are not the Club for all South Australians they are not a state team and therefore should not wear the state jumper.
As for the SANFL board someone should start the ball rolling and sack these incompetent F###WITS they have debased the SANFL.
So all you P@##S hang your collective heads in shame you are an embarassment to SA football.
SANFL 2000 - 2011 Central District 12 consecutive Grand Final appearances and 9 Premierships.
The crows bought back their licence from the SANFL and have their reserves team competing against the SANFL teams but now they want to represent these same SANFL sides who they don't want to be associated with and compete against!!!!!!!
I haven't been this angry since Rocket rooster appeared at Willunga!!!!!!!!!!!!

Better still - Port should wear the old black and white state guernsey (as worn by SA around the time that Port adopted the colours), and claim in return that they are the team for all SAians, etc.
Frankly I don't give a cr@p if the Clowns (or the smears for that matter) want to wear an old(note emphasis) state jumper to acknowledge that the club was born of the SANFL. Let them dig up the '70s panelled version and wear that.
However to sanction the wearing of the current state jumper by an AFL club is beneath contempt.
