2017 Off-Season

[The Bedge]

"Our members and supporters should rest assured that we will make decisions that are in the best interests of our football club first and foremost," Crows football manager Brett Burton said.

Does this mean the Crows are going to make life very difficult for Lever, and potentially shoot themselves in the footy in the process ala Nick Stevens and Port?

Jake Lever officially asks to be traded

Thats a suprise, came from nowhere

Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome Damian Barrett

Hey Hey thems are fightin' words

Sick of these sooks wanting to go home. Join the military then you will find out what it’s like to be away from home

Wow they're so quick and ruthless to turn on their own haha! No care for the service he's given the club

[Booney]

Wow. Getting to the Grand Final wasn't good enough? Hard to imagine him getting much further with a Victorian club!

[Dutchy]

The bleeding continues at the Crows, others have left so easily therefore makes those there think they can leave easily also.

Wonder if Sloane is in this camp now also?

[Booney]

He'll do his hamstring and be stuffed. Footy gods. Karma. He is a wimp. Wimp wimp wimp !

[The Bedge]

Crows fans eager to let him go to the draft out of spite haha!

Some favs:

I'm genuinely starting to hate the AFL system. The players have far too much power. He's not even a free agent, for God's sakes.

This is just bloody hopeless the interstate teams train up players and after 2 or 3 years they want to go back to vic clubs ...no wonder they keep winning premierships ...

It's soooo annoying. After all the AFC have done for him. No one wanted him with his knee reco etc they give him a go & this is how he repays them. I'm not tooo worried tho we always seem to be able to cover players really well, but it just makes me cross. We are a FANTASTIC club & our recruiting has been great but maybe it's time for SA players only.
GGGGGGGRRRRRRR!!!!

Well, what a shock .. not. On your bike junior .. make way for someone who actually WANTS to be here. And imo anyone who starts making noises about leaving DURING the season should be dropped immediately and ALL contract talks should be left until the off-season and put a stop to this nonsense.

I'm pretty sure the balance of service given is in favour of the club in this instance.

"I'm glad he didn't get a premiership medal!"

[The Bedge]

Love it!

Genuine c**t of a bloke

Incredibly disappointed with this. Sick of losing good players every freaking year! If we can't get at least 2 first rounders then send him to the draft. Enjoy Brisbane!

Crows better play hard ball. Tired of getting effed over by wankers chasing money. Two first round picks or send him into the draft to get picked up by Brisbane or Kangaroos.

not totally devo, we have talia, smith and laird who are all australian level and leaver was getting the 3rd / 4th best defender. If we can get 2 late first round for him its probably a win.

We crucify as one.

In all honesty I'd look hard in your own backyard before trying to lure kids across the border.

Yes it's a privilege and honour to play at AFL level but I think you'll get more output from a kid that actually barracked for you or can remain in their own state.

Even as adults we explore our employment opportunities, we put up with jobs that get us by and pay the bills whilst sniffing about for more suitable offers and present ourselves when they arise.

Bring back zones.

The Crows have had a torrid run of it for as long as I can remember.

[Dutchy]

"I want to be an Adelaide player for the next 10-15 years." New Crow Jake Lever is "stoked" to be coming to our Club & has a point to prove after slipping to pick No.14.

[Lightning McQueen]

d'oh.

Perhaps he had his fingers crossed.
