Rankine is one, his name has been mentioned


No doubt something to do with what he said.

"Adelaide can confirm two of its players were subject to direct and significant threats on a social media platform," the club said in a statement.

SA Police has arrested a 31-year-old man after allegedly sending five threatening messages to a 25-year-old man on social media.

It just never will go away, these f--kwits glad he hit the cells

Given the timing I reckon it was more along the lines of a crows supporter ripping into him about letting the team down and causing the loss.

Bit overdue

Roo retires from the Board of Directors.

Roo and Kenny in the one year. What a shame.

Nicks extends for one more year.

No issues with an extra year, any longer and I would not have been impressed

ADELAIDE list manager Justin Reid has joined the AFL, with the League poaching him to be its new head of football performance and list management.

Reid will replace Ned Guy, who recently joined Melbourne as its new football chief.

Reid has been the Crows' list boss since 2014, building the club's group towards its 2017 Grand Final performance and then steering it through its rebuild back to the finals and the minor premiership last year.

Alongside experienced recruiting manager Hamish Ogilvie, the pair have headed the Crows list needs, with Reid landing the likes of Izak Rankine and Jordan Dawson in key trades.

Before joining the Crows, Reid was a senior player agent as well, with his new position at the AFL set to see him be across the trade and player movement landscape as well as the draft.

Reid, who was a part of the AFL's program last year in guiding prospective future football managers, will lead the league's performance portfolio under Greg Swann, which includes game analysis, player movement and list management.

The Crows will start their search for a replacement for Reid ahead of the season beginning.

Hopefully they appoint Adrian Dodoro.

I think they'd compliant each other perfectly.

[wenchbarwer]

Don't look a gift horse and all that.

Ironic that the article just mentions the trades, it's only been the last couple of years that they've nailed down the top few picks. Done better with higher draft picks, funnily enough

After Collingwood Ned Guy became the AFLs Head of football performance and list management

and people wonder why the administration is a complete ****

[RB]

What does the AFL's head of football performance and list management even do?

Here's an idea, eliminate the position and others like it, and put the money towards state league and grassroots football.
