Adelaide Crows to wear state jumper

Post by adelaidebloke »

thoughts.....

dividing crows supporters and south Aussies.

probably just uniting port fans and encouraging more support towards port.

Adelaide do not represent me and I am south australian, what a load of crap. Let them do it, it's always been us against them. We'll smash the turds in round 2 and have the last laugh. The state guernsey officially has no meaning now

This is a joke , the Crows are not a state side, shows no respect for the greats who have played for SA.

Port should just wear the prison bar one. End of the day, it's just a top with their (Crows) colours, but I can see Port getting up in the match as they seem to show more hunger when its a bigger build up.

Personally I dont think PA really give a stuff what jumper AC wear, it is all a publicity promotion campaign, AFL clubs will do whatever they can to promote their game -got to admit this has woken up a lot of the sleepy afl supporters.
If the truth was to be known, Crows want to wear a jumper that commemorates their first season in afl , they should wear the Bays jumper in showdown, after all they were nothing more than a Glenelg team on steroids. :)

I agree Port should wear the prison bars, mind you it should be for all their games at Adelaide Oval.

I wonder if the Power will be complaining when all this publicity will fill the Stadium up with Crows supporters....I mean, you guys have been a financial drain on the SANFL from the start....

Port Power are based on the magpies so we can wear those colours champ. Crows are not a state of origin team. They are just a franchise run by clowns. I think it's great that they are trying to wear it. It has definitely fired us up. Players and supporters and staff.
Oh by the way, crows may not even be allowed to wear it LOL.
Adelaide oval will sell out for the showdown. Port have almost got 40k members. Not bad for a 'cabernet club with feral supporters'. Can't wait to smash you losers in round 2.

how???

will we lose sponsors???...no...

will we lose supporters???...no....(even if we lost 10k...we'd still have 20k more than the ferals)

has it just made the 2014 season a little more interesting??? yes!!

it was always a publicity stunt...I mean, when the farrrrk has Smart ever announced a big decision....you could see he was trying to keep a straight face.

All the more neutral fence sitting fans are now on the Port Adelaide bandwagon, no one wants to be involved with a club that just keeps making stupid decisions meanwhile Port are showing vast signs of improvement by the month. The tide has turned in SA. By the way, there is only about a 500 difference between memberships....i smell fear from west lakes.

I'don't really follow footy but if pushed I would barrack for the Crows. I understand all the reasons etc, behind why the Crows want to wear the jumper & why Port don't want them to, BUT I have to say its only a BLOODY JUMPER! A piece of cloth!
Wear it or don't wear it, but stop talking about it! Please. Theres much more important things going on in the world than what jumper to wear.

That is all.

Rescinded!

Embarrassing for Mr Smarty, embarrassing for the AFL's luckiest CEO Mr Triggy, no matter what his spin/quote on FoxSports news.
