Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Makes no sense for mine considering how hard the club has been hit by off-field dramas and injury. Always thought he was getting the most out of a list lacking significant depth

Just off the top of my head

Davis left to GWS
Tippet saga
Loss of draft picks
Walker injured
Baileys suspension and illness

He had his share of distractions

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Must be nice to have the money to piss two years of a good wage away. SA press will go to town on this.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Wow, what a knee jerk reaction, there must have been a pretty significant dust up for this sort of split.

Didn't give the guy a chance really.

Still it's the crows we are talking about, so they can get stuffed I hope they end up with a numpty

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

I'm totally shocked. What a rubbish club. With everything that has gone on at that place he has carried himself and the club rather well I thought.

Be an interesting story when it comes out

Yeah, me too! Didn't he take the. From non-finalists to within a kick or so of a GF 3 years ago? They lost Davis, then lost Tippett and were banned from the draft as a result, Tex Walker did a knee against us early in 2013, Dean Bailey died at the start of this year etc. etc.... And they were a game off finals.

It seems that their jealousy of their neighbour's recent success might have clouded their judgement, somewhat. Sanderson will probably be lured by Collingwood or someone, but with some turnover amongst our assistants, I wouldn't mind seeing him assisting McCartney at the Kennel. I rate him. Would've worked with McCartney back at Geelong, wouldn't he?

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

massively under performed in the last 2 years, in my opinion. Interesting to see whether this sways Dangerfield either way.

Heard this mentioned a few times, but it's a myth. Adelaide's list simply isn't that good. Their ladder positioning was fitting IMO.

Would love Sanderson to join us.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Sanderson haas the best win/loss ratio of any Adelaide coach.... Ever!

Very stiff!

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

With Grant parting ways come Sando take his spot or Monty goes forward and Sando becomes the strategist.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Can't stand the guy personally. Some of his comments in presses makes me think he is a knob.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

This sums it up for me:

The sacking of Sanderson was described by the Crows' inaugural captain, Chris McDermott, as "the most brutal decision" in the club's history.
It came despite the contract renewal last year and will place more scrutiny on the role of Ricciuto, a recently installed board member, high-profile media commentator and now business partner in one of his biggest Adelaide hotel ventures with Crows players, including Dangerfield and Taylor Walker.

A bunch of guys sitting around a bar getting pissed post season talking shit about how their mate would do a better job than the current guy..........who happens to be an outsider.

Good luck Adelaide.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

On Goodwin from Caroline Wilson:

Goodwin remains a controversial part of Essendon's experimental drugs program. He was interviewed by ASADA last year and was one of several coaches and staff who confirmed he was treated by Stephen Dank with a variety of injections and oral substances that were potentially banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency.

HAHA good visual Jeemak. However, hard to say. Wilson always has a way of teasing out the worst in a situation.'ve never liked Marc Ricuto much. Dangerous having ex-stars in certain management roles.

Always really enjoyed Sanderson's press conferences. Had a good record going for a while as the least likely to get back to back losses. Will get a new job in a heartbeat. Footy can be so cruel.

Thought this was interesting.

The Elite Sports Properties agent and son of former Crows football boss John Reid appears certain to assume the role of Adelaide list manager, a move that has raised eyebrows at rival clubs, given Reid's current role.

Re: Sanderson Sacked?

Roo and Goodwin are business partners in some high profile pubs in Adelaide. If Goodwin gets the job the city will implode. The history has a massive history of being a boys club
