    Should some blame go that far, interesting to see how it pans out.

    That's like going to court, being found guilty then saying that your lawyer should go to jail instead of you.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      I'm guessing he's probably sitting in a really nice car or a really expensive restaraunt.

        Good one!

                The fix has been in for weeks, Tippett to be a Giant

                Hopefully they take the Crows pick so we get an earlier pick

                        The Crows will cop their draft restrictions and I think Tippett will get some form of suspension maybe something like 12 games.
                        The AFL will be working overtime to get him to GWS. You have to wonder how many other clubs fiddle the books in particular the stronger wealthier clubs. The Crows administration deserves to have the book thrown at it and Tippett and his Manager would be fully aware of what was being played out.

                          This will really hurt the "squeaky clean" image that the Crows have tried to portray


                          While the blue rinse knitters in rAdelaide are blaming the AFL, more and more of the "normal" Crows supporter are starting to realise that the Crows have been caught cheating big time.

                          There's zero chance that Teflon Trigg will keep his job, is untenable. The Board will want heads to roll so it looks like that all bad decisions made were not their fault.

                          And imagine working in Corporate Sponsorship at the Crows at the moment. Try renewing a sponsorship with a business that maybe struggling a tad financially and waving in their commitment.


                          But at least we can say we were beaten in 97 and 98 by a club that has been caugh Salary Cap cheating.

                            Emma Quayle reporting that Adelaide may also be in trouble for further third party payments o Nathan Van Berlo....if they weren't already in strife this could escalate hugely.

                                The Crows are in a lot of trouble now with this latest development.
