| Bernie has finally pulled his finger out and begun the climb up from dudsville, he had a pretty good season although 8th or 9th in most categories is hardly setting the world on fire. He showed flashes of real ability but will need to continue his improvement next year to be considered a genuinely good player. So well done Bernie for proving my pre-season impression wrong, you've made Oddie as proud as a doting mum. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| LOL I think the "dud" might get the most imporved at the club this year oddie!! what do you think? he's had a great year even if he doesnt win it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Don't you geddit adrian? Kenny is too faaarking slow! Imagine him playing at CHB against the like of St Nick. Who's spot would he take? AA FB Ben Rutten or AA CHB Nathan Bock? His game was best suited as a marking forward, body on body, but when the ball hit the ground.... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| LOL i mean Adrian!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| lol tell us what you really thing adrain!! Well done kenny on a great career. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| He was pushed His best position is as a defender Keep Kenny and tell Craig and Reid and Trigg to farken p1ssoff |

| Always liked Kenny, as honest a competitor as they come. Could take a contested mark and bring the ball to ground, but lack of pace and recovery let him down. Would have been value to the Bulldogs upfront this year because they would have had Johnson to play off him. Welsh was good for them but they needed a tall like Kenny rather than another middie forward like Welsh. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ADELAIDE forward Ken McGregor has retired from AFL football despite having a year left to run on his contract. The 27-year-old played 152 matches for the Crows after making his debut against Geelong in 1999. He played nine matches in his first year, earning an AFL Rising Star nomination. The versatile big man became a crowd favourite during his 10 seasons with Adelaide, proving a valuable asset with his ability to play at both ends of the ground. He booted 114 goals during his career, with a career-high five coming against Richmond in 2004. McGregor managed just seven matches in 2008 but did play his 150th senior game in round five â against Fremantle at AAMI Stadium. He was a member of Adelaideâs pre-season premiership side in 2003, while only 11 Crows have played more games for the club. Club chief executive Steven Trigg said McGregor had been a loyal servant. âKen has been a committed team player who has always put the club before himself,â Trigg said. âHe intends to play on with Woodville-West Torrens in the SANFL and we wish him all the best for the future, both on and off the field.â |

| well freedirt.... here we are at the end of of the season and its time to make your assesment of young bernie vince. the way i see it he was a great success , a breakout season as i predicted , numerous listings in club best players , a couple of bog`s 8th most disposals , 8th highest goal kicker , 9th most tackles , 5th most frees and third most brownlow votes for the club and equal 42nd in the league. what says you freedirt ... you conceding or do you still think he`s a dud ? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| B O G once. best player list seven times out of eighteen games. not bad for a dud eh freedirt. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| not much point having contrasting opinions when those opinions or predictions are 99% of the time proven inaccurate as seems to be the case with the sulking bitter one. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| So...you don't like him then? At least he provides a contrast to the kid glove treatment the Crows get from most other quarters. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| oh yeah ...and the worst coach since Robert Shaw | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| chris mcphurphet.....average player.....great leader..... c r a p journalist. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| freedirt...mcdermott has hardly said a good thing about crows since he was sacked. sure criticize when warranted , but this guy is clearly just bitter , he thinks he was deprived of a premiership or two , what he needs to realise is the prems came because of the decisions like sacking mcphurphett and others. also what qualifies mcphud to pick apart any football club , he had his chance to show what he can do as a coach and took his club from also rans to 12th in a 9 team competition only to once again get dragged away kicking and screaming like the big Sheila he is. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| lol sorry oddie..i didnt think of McDermott.i didnt think you was talking about the other 2!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| long live McDermott and Wildy and Francou and Dittmar these 4 are never afraid to tell it how it is and i wish KG and Cornes would p1ss off with their "oh no, you cant say that" about crows or port, mainly crows. these 4 blokes should be permanently on 5aa and those other 2 "gooses" should be sacked today! |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| No surprise you don't like McDermott, he's one who's quite prepared to criticize the Crows when warranted, and we can't have that can we? "Find of the season" is a bit much, but Vince is much improved...he needed to, as by his own admission he'd been lazy and going nowhere. Good on him. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| of course he is right , thats my point!! freedirt knows what i is talkin bout. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| chris mcsplurter | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| oddie oddie oddie....which captain u talking about,mate???To suggested that bickley or roo had there sorry asses booted out...is comical oddie... roo is probably the best player the club has had there and bickley would have been most courageous!! But whichever ex captian your talking about..he's probably right about bernie...maybe not the find of the season for us but defiantly in the top 3.i think the "ole porper" might just pip him at the post. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I'm talking about the season freedirt .... remember ? remember the podiectomy?...your on shaky ground and you know it...Bernie has even been described by one certain ex crows captain as Adelaide's find of the season. (the only sensible thing he`s said since getting his sorry ass booted out). |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I say it as I see it, oddie, the good and the bad...don't feel the need to sugar coat everything about the Crows the way you do. There's nothing wrong with saying someone had an ordinary game if he had an ordinary game, just as I'll say someone had a good game if he had a good game. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| what do you expect from a port pooftalaide supporter oddie, hes obviously choking on it hahahaha |
