Sanderson Sacked!

Featured Replies

Surely too early for Goodwin?

You would think so, even a few Adelaide supporters suggesting the same.

But who else? Tudor? Was seriously in the running last time round if the rumours are true.

Watch this space, especially if McKenna joins him.

 

Sanderson sacked.

Melbourne lose Goodwin and Dangerfield at the final hour

Seriously who saw this coming? Wow.

As someone else said, get the popcorn!

Ru wants his mate to coach, we were about to sign him and they jumped early.

Simple really...

What a silly decision!

They made the Prelim in his first year, FCS. Struggled last year without Tippett and Walker, then were unlucky not to make it this year in an even field.

Clearly the Crows brains trust are impatient and jealous of the success of Port Adelaide. They'll be back to square one when Goodwin doesn't yield better results next year.

One does not simply trade Bernie Vince in Adelaide. He's the kingmaker


Stupid decision he is the scapegoat for the clubs poor decisions, they were a kick away from a grand final berth he lost tippet and walker all last year, had no good draft picks because of the tippet saga and was forced to trade players like Bernie Vince to get back in the draft all stuff out of his control, a massive knee jerk reaction

 

Well, I don't think anyone saw that coming!! Deals still to be done.........

Hey, did anyone hear? Sanderson's been sacked apparently. Can't confirm, not sure of source, but you heard it here first!


Seems a tad ruthless, must be some truth in the unhappy senior player rumour.

I think he is very unlucky.

He lost Tippett, had draft restrictions and Walker was injured a lot.

Ruthless industry. Not much patience.

Maybe we wanted Sando insteade of Goodwin!

New CEo from Canberra Rugby looks like a dumbo.Fagan

Sports admin has to be one of the most pathetic things I've ever seen.

As the admin grows, the sport,team,comp etc gets worse.

It wasn't broke and they tried to fix it.

Timing cant be accidental can it.

So massive payout to Sando, payout to assistants. Unreal. He had to have lost the players (Danger and Walker etc). Potentially our massive loss all round.

Article Here.

Seems there was a bit of friction between the coach and certain players. They don't come out and say it, but it sounds a hell of a lot like the club decided it was more important to keep the boys happy than keep the coach.

Last I heard Danger was a supporter of Sando.

Interesting times ahead.


Fantastic news!

Improves our chances of acquiring Dangerfield.

Depending on coach probably decreases it if Danger didnt like Sanderson?

I think the opposite.

Don't underestimate how significantly destabilizing the whole club less than a month before trade week can play on player's minds.

Fascinating, irrational decision. Haven't a clue if this bodes well or poorly for us with the Danger rumors. Likewise Goodwin. Did they decide any apprentice good enough for Roos was simply too good to pass up? Did Danger tell them he wants out and this is a desperate attempt to keep Tex and Sloane from leaving? Hard to say just yet.

Yep! Disrupts our plans, but I accept that that's the price to pay for getting to watch an Adelaide trainwreck for a few weeks.

Happens a bit with teams in towns , without too many teams... All gets a bit incestuous etc.

I think the Crows are bloody mad for this. Watch them slide .

Sandersons sacking will become known as Fagans Folly!!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
