He is just about finished as an AFL player. Racks up cheap possessions that go 20 metres, sideways and backwards. Those players don’t do any harm in the AFL anymore, should have traded him when they had the chance.

He was All Australian in 2017 ( named on the bench ) when he averaged 33 touches, 5 tackles and 6 clearances a game, he was elite in a side that did all but win the flag.

Compare him to this years AA midfield of Wines, Bontempelli, Petracca, Miller etc and he doesn't look anything like an elite midfielder anymore, physically and in his game style. Mitchell at Hawthorn has been gobbled up* by the new breed of big bodied mids too.

Interesting Adelaide have locked him away for 2 more years after nobody was interested in him as a FA.
PAFC. Forever.

West Coast superstar Hungry Jack’s has agreed to join Adelaide on a four-year deal, effective immediately.

The Crows have been in ongoing discussions with West Coast and can today confirm a deal has been finalised.

Hungry Jack’s will line-up down back - of the guernsey - in every match as the Club’s new Principal Partner.

Fans hoping to secure an autograph or photo with Adelaide’s newest star can go one better, with special promotions and giveaways on offer throughout the season - including a free Whopper burger for every Crows goal kicked during a home game from outside the 50m arc.

Hungry Jacks will play a part in Adelaide’s AFL, AFLW and SANFL sides, while also continuing its long career with West Coast

Adelaide CEO Tim Silvers described the signing as a major coup for the Club.

“Hungry Jack’s has been a huge supporter of footy and Australian sport and our players, coaches and staff consider it a privilege to be working with them on a day-to-day basis in the years ahead,” Silvers said.

“Having entered a new era at the Crows, it’s hard not to be inspired by Jack Cowin’s journey as a successful, innovative and inspiring businessman.

“Importantly, we are taking a long-term view and there’s a determination to make this a winning partnership.

“Everyone is super excited to be joining forces with a big brand that has big ideas, as well as the chance to have some fun and bring joy to the Crows family along the way.”

Oh well, at least the coach will have plenty of support when he wants to give the players a grilling.
