Crows Disgrace

All discussions to do with the SANFL

Crow heritage came out of the SANFL. Hence why their colours are state colours and their song at the time represented South Australia. Since winning a premiership you cannot change the club song. For me I cannot care what they wear, maybe port should wear the prison bar jersey.

Not quite. I guess because I don't post on this site much then I know nothing about football. Get over yourselves and stop acting like children who have had their lollies taken away. The crows came about because of the SANFL teams and at least they try and acknowledge it.

Booing a team wearing the state Guernsey... that's weird.
Imagine the reaction in WA if the Weagles tried this on? Disgraceful and arrogant, as ever

The crows came about because of Port. If Port hadn't made a move to look at the AFL there wouldn't be a Adelaide Crows.

Its a game of footy FFS, who cares what they wear, watched a side last year in the country wearing Port Power colours, no-one seemed to give a shit. This type of hype just confirms my status to refuse to watch a game of AFL football live. How many sides in the country wear the State guernsey, get in your trucks or on your trikes go have a look, quite a few.

Remember the SANFL, AFL and opposition have to agree to the guernsey change for a specific game

This topic is currently being discussed on SEN and they are all in agreement that this is a disgrace and its an indictment on the south australian football culture and sanfl

It is ridiculous, there's no doubt about that.

From memory, the Eagles may have worn the WAFL guernsey a few years ago.

What teams where the state guernsey, can't say I have seen any to be honest

I think it's more the attempt at them claiming to be the states team that upsets everybody

Would u be saying the same if Port wore the state guernsey

North should be able wear the State guernsey in Round 1 versus the Crows, we have more right than these pathetic jokes.
Any true South Australians would dislike them before and even more now.

Actually the 14 is because of Macca, I have always worn the number 14 because he did.

Victorians have been wearing this guernsey for years in the sanfl side alongside copious second rate footballers who didn't deserve a game.

Who cares if a few more do.

Brilliant marketing and publicity deal all in one. Port will be the winners as this will guarantee a sell out crowd that attends.

The slogan says
___________________________
150 YEARS OF SA FOOTY
RESPECT
___________________________

I might be wrong
But why is it 150 years of SANFL football ?
That's 1864 going by the slogan

The first true SA comp started in 1877

The State guernsey represents every South Australian football club.

The Crows will be playing against 9 of these clubs this season.

Odd move. Hardly surprising. Never been less interested in Australian Rules Footy than I am at the moment.
