Adelaide Off-Field 2019

[Hellopplz]

Everybody say serenity now and calm please.

Can you actually be offered more money if you've already signed a contract? I guess if you're traded to a side, then they can adjust your contract to pay you more or for sign you for longer?

Listened to it. I didn't buy his casual laid back "it's okay" approach. He just put it on because everyone called him out on how horribly he treated Lever. He's just a shower bloke, and a shower captain.

He wants to know why someone wants to leave a footy club that he is captain of. Is that not reasonable? He wants out less than 12 months after signing a contract, think it's fair enough the captain would like to have a chat about what has changed :)

Also, here's some light reading for you to prove just how shower a bloke Tex is:

At the end of the day there's something wrong at Adelaide for so much talent to be wanting out. My guess is it's a few factors, not the least of which is Tex.

13 players have re-signed with the Crows just this year including first team guys such as Sloane, Laird, Crouch, Seedsman, Lynch, Atkins, Douglas, Gallucci, Fogarty and Smith. Gibbs requested a trade to Adelaide in consecutive off-season - would he not have been turned off by how shower a bloke the captain is? Also think his peers would have realised how shower of a captain him before voting him as best captain two years in a row..

Just try and put yourself in Gov's shoes. If you're at a workplace with a shower boss, you don't go to the boss and say "Mate, you're a shower bloke, I want a transfer."

What the flower are you talking about? You have no idea why McGovern wants out, you have no idea if it's because of Tex. Have you considered that he's just been offered more money and wants to take it?

By that logic, you can't know if trinda is right or wrong.

Trinda is implying that Tex is driving players out the door which is just blatant speculation based on no facts.

The only player I can remember that come out and said he left a club because of the environment or personnel was Mal Michael who didn't like Buckley when he was captain so we will hear nothing , but I have to admit until I read the list of players that have departed the Crows I hadn't really noticed how many there were so Trinda and Damien Barrett raise a fair point so whatever the reason is something is NQR.
