Buggered if I know whats going on at the Adelaide Crows

I wonder what it would take to get Ned McHenry out of there? They got him in last years ND, I loved the vids of him and he would be perfect for our forward line enabling us to keep Stacky in the backline.
 
Hopefully we get to break another club in a few weeks. This one is getting old now.

Salty Cats are the only team that would take a loss to us as badly as Adelaide. I actually have them as our GF opponents.

As I keep saying, six of our flags involve a finals win against the Cats. Seven would be very satisfying.

The only thing nearing Carlton's extended grand finals drought is that Adelaide's is the next longest (insert schadenfreude emoji) for a premiership.

Would prefer to see the Pies win than Adelaide, that's how much the Crowbots grind my gears!
 
Crows are imploding its been coming since we broke them similar to the way the Blues broke the RFC in 1982.

Crows will clean house and go rebuild mode its time for them.

You can have a bad year but not two in a row. And definitely not two in a row as a team that should be top four contenders on profile.

Only surprised that it took as long as it did for the spotlight to fall on Pyke.
 
I wonder if the Adelaide players stood in a powerstance of respect for Pyke on his way out?

Meanwhile in Easter Island Football Club's boardroom...

Rob Chapman: Chairman
Andrew Fagan: CEO

Rob: I call this extraordinary meeting of the two top dogs...
Andy: Crows...
Rob: Top dogs to order.
Andy: (Under his breath) Crows.
Rob: And we need to discuss club posture and our reliance upon unbending inflexibility and big ears
Andy: I'll have you know I had corrective surgery when I was a kid becasue I was always being called "wing-nut"
Rob: Not your ears Andy
Andy: Oh
Rob: And I mean we need to discuss, between us, the success, or lack of it, this year
Andy: Ok
Rob: So the only bright spot is our draft pick upgrade courtesy of that dipstick from Carlton
Andy: Yeah - So we get pick 1?
Rob: Nah, the AFL will throw a bunch of picks to Gold Coast and push us down to about 4 in the draft
Andy: Should get a good player then
Rob: If our list managers and the coach do their jobs
Andy: Of course
Rob: But that's off topic. Everything else was complete *smile*. So, lets discuss the coach.
Andy: Blighty!
Rob: Andy - No, Blighty left years ago. It's Dom Pyke
Andy: Who
Rob: Pykey - You know the bloke who stands in the corner mumbling to himself at club events
Andy: What, him?
Rob: Yeah!
Andy: He's our club's head coach?
Rob: I know!
Andy: *smile*!
Rob: Yep. Anyway - I reckon we can do better.
Andy: Do better? A *smile* mop with a post-it note with drawn-on eyes and a mouth could do better.
Rob: Yep. Anyway I've asked him to join us. He's waiting outside.
Andy: Probably standing to attention near the ficus pot plant.
Rob: Could be, *presses intercom button*, Rory, would you ask Dom to come in please?
*muffled tinny response*: Garble, farble, snarble, boing
*door opens*
Rob: Ah! Dom. Thanks for coming down.
Dom: *Stands in the corner*
Rob: Erm... Dom, turn around to face us please
Andy: Hi Dom
Rob: So, Dom. There comes a time in every Chairman's life when he has to share bad news.
Andy: Yeah.
Rob: Yer out.
Andy: Yeah.
Rob: We just don't think you are the right man for the job any more.
Andy: Yeah.
Rob: So we'll release a press statement saying you have resigned.
Andy: Yeah.
Rob: So, um, box up your things. We'll need the car this afternoon, so I'll get Tex to carry your boxes to the bus stop for you.
Andy: Bye Dom.
Don: *turns to leave and stops by the door*
Don: It's Don by the way
Rob: *smile*! You can speak! I thought you were mute!
