That being said, too many good people that I know will get an enormous about of joy from a Crows win, so Im supporting them tomorrow and hope they have a good win. The betting markets are very generous so will at least make some coin out of a win also.
I think the people within the confines of the club would dispute that, quite heavily in fact.
Note that he replaced Sanderson who was slowly taking Adelaide in the wrong direction, it wasn't a happy club under Sanderson. Walsh in a very short time righted that ship, he quickly replaced van Berlo with Walker to point the club in a new direction and you can tell how the players speak of him he immediately captured their attention.
Also, speak to any of the Port Adelaide or West Coast boys who had him as a mentor / assistant coach and they'll tell you how much of an influence he was. Very highly regarded man by many.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.
