Must be in that premiership window.
Or getting some trade value back into them before they trade them.

So the week they lose McGovern and Thomas they rest the most experienced player. Thinking finals?
Tanking for the number 1 draft pick

The SANFL is calling on fans to be aware of the power of their words in the wake of comments made by Crows forward Josh Jenkins.
Speaking on Adelaide radio last week, Jenkins revealed he asked his wife and daughter not to attend a match so they would be spared the discomfort of hearing the fans’ heavy criticism.
SANFL’s General Manager of Football Adam Kelly spoke with Jenkins about the comments and agreed with the 30-year-old’s sentiment.
“Josh’s concern is for the impact that personal attacking comments, directed at any player, has on their partners, family and friends who might hear this among the crowd at a game,” Kelly told AFC Media.
“His concern is shared by (the) SANFL – when it’s a loved one or friend that is the subject of the abuse, this would likely anger anyone and compel them to defend.
“We want fans to be passionate about the game, but without directing verbal abuse towards individual players.
“Fans need to have regard for those in the crowd who are there to support players so that they too can enjoy their day at the footy.”
The SANFL has measures in place for crowd control, including ground security, public announcements and club communications with their members.
Kelly believed speaking publicly about the issue would help decrease abusive comments aimed at players.
“Hopefully we create greater awareness and encourage these people to reflect on their behaviour,” Kelly said.
“We also hope it will encourage other fans to call out to security or club officials any inappropriate behaviour in the crowd that crosses the line from barracking to abuse.”
Adelaide’s SANFL side will face North Adelaide at Prospect Oval on Saturday afternoon.

I know some people who still go along and the only 'abuse hurled' is based on the AFL reserve players' wages...Spargo wrote:Booney wrote:mighty_tiger_79 wrote:Kane Cornes article regarding JJ

F#cking spare me. His wife wouldn’t go to many games if supporters abusing Jenkins was causing her “discomfort”. What about all the Crows supporters who hang shit on him at Adelaide Oval?
Once again SANFL management addressing the big issues...

To think we gave up pick 19 for him in 2016 year before the flag. They obviously didn't do their homework on him.
We wasted pick 6 on him originally from memory.
Very sad and a waste of talent also.

I think it's sad that drugs are so prevalant and widespread and almost socially acceptable and accessible these days, and drugs like ice genuinely ruin lives.
I think it's sad that people feel their life reaches such a low spot they sprial out of control, and dependancy on drugs speed that up.
I think it's sad that drugs can hook people so severely and become such a habit - yeah they make the decision to use.. but i'm sure their first time they thought it was a harmless dabble just for some fun coz their mates were doing it.. loved the experience.. thought one more time wouldn't hurt.. nek minnut..
I also think it's sad that AFL footy is just a high pressure, under the spotlight, scrutinised environment that players probably feel isolated, alone and unable to escape or release - hell even having a beer at the pub on a Sunday makes national news FFS.
