Another disgraceful stuff up by Demetriou

Have to LOL that Prick Collo who rodgered us with Etihad is reviewing the hastily done deal in Adealide.

Just like the Essendon lettuce leaf slap last year and the Dees tanking fiasco Dimwit has NFI and then walks out leaving a big heaping stinking pile of manure for Gilligan to tidy up.

The AFL, with the advantage of great hindsight of the Etihad stuff-up, how could this be allowed to happen :?: :?: :?:

The difference will be, they will do everything to rescue The Crows and Port financially from their deal, whilst we and other Etihad tenants will be left to rot.

Yep of course. The AFL would rather give us money than try and fix the deal. It makes sense.

How on earth could this have happened after the docklands stadium debacle? Absolutely pathetic on behalf of the AFL and the two SA clubs. I'm dumbfounded

They could buy out Etihad now and problem solved

What irk's me is when the AFL get docklands handed over to them , All the clubs will benefit !

Yet its been St kilda , North , Footscray and Essendon that have paid for it !

And the bombers thanks to half of the Afl hierachy at the time being Essendon people got the best deal .
They get a % of all merchandise and other sales .

Its ridiculous that when I go into the St KILDA Social Club , the only money the Social Club makes is from the raffles and guest entries !

I think the AFL should have paid Dimwit double what he has getting, that may well have increased his chances of getting something right


How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ? :lol:

I think the Eddihad stadium deal is obscene. Bring back Waverley.


As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
