The First Flight Of The Crows | 1982-1995 | The History Of The Adelaide Crows

[@AnsonBeeker]

I'm American moving to Australia in 2025. I like the Crows and this helps me get to know the history a lot better.

[@thegaz-man]

Nice, always awesome to hear from Crows fans across the sea! Glad to hear I've helped tell the history of this fine club

[@MrMagicmatt05]

‘Darren Bewick of all people’? Darren Bewick was a damn fine player, thank you.

[@thegaz-man]

I must say I judged him from what I saw in his late career, and somewhat unfairly compared him to a prime Roo/Modra. His early 90s numbers were actually insane

[@MrMagicmatt05]

@@thegaz-man was still good late in his career. Not big numbers, but effective.

Best footy doco maker in the game salute!

[@thegaz-man]

Thanks, that means a lot!

[@el-violador]

Just discovered you via the algorithm... It is criminal that I am your 91st sub. Your content is not only well researched but also really funny

[@thegaz-man]

Thanks so much, that means a lot!

[@wazreacts]

Tell me you weren't old enough in the early 90s without telling me you weren't old enough in the early 90s... It's Sean Tasker, as in 'tass-ker', and Mark Mickan rhymes with Dark Chicken... That off my hairy old chest, good video. Very nostalgic.

[@thegaz-man]

Cheers, had no idea about Sean's pronunciation! Yeah I hadn't been born at that stage, but would have been so cool to be around for the formation of the Crom!

[@mick411411]

amazing storytelling. great graphics and use of data. You have a future in this

[@thegaz-man]

Thank you so much!!

[@alejandrobohorquezpeniche521]

This is so awesome mate. Keep it up.

[@thegaz-man]

Thanks so much!

[@electricmaster23]

Suggestion: Please do a documentary on Essendon's 2000 season!

[@thegaz-man]

It's funny that you say that, I've got something planned for Matthew Lloyd's 2001 season! Could certainly combine them into a two-part thing 😉

[@BGwControlStop]

You need to to do a whole Scott Hodges video

[@thegaz-man]

He's a pretty interesting character for sure!

[@BGwControlStop]

@@thegaz-man Scott should been a lynch pin for the expansion team for the first decade coming of nearly 150 goals in 1990 for port Adelaide Sanfl magpies , however he was such a flop . He quit in I think 1995 only to be redrafted by the crows back in 1996 and then on traded to the AFL port power.a lot of the port Adelaide magpies boys who made the inaugural squad despite being dominant in the SANFL were flops such as Darren smith. Simon tregenza was the exception. It took over half a decade before the greatest thing port gave to the crows would bear fruit that was none other than A Mcleod.

[@tysonolson3801]

love this. you've done an amazing job.

[@AdelaideTim]

Excellent video! You deserve more subscribers mate, amazing quality!

[@rogerramjet7246]

And now you can add Dawson in 2022 to your after the siren goal to win list with Jameson 👍

[@thegaz-man]

And in a Showdown, no less! Rod's kick was far cleaner though 😂

[@rogerramjet7246]

@@thegaz-man yep can’t argue with that . Amazing he ended up at fullback

[@jimmymiddleton1307]

Gaz, not sure how I can get in touch with you mate, but I may be able to put you in touch with someone who might interest you with relation to the Crows. ✌🏼

[@thegaz-man]

That'd be awesome! Best way to get in touch with me is my email - [e-mail]

[@billy4eyes512]

I think Mark Mickan is pronounced "Micken", not McCann, but I stand to be corrected.

[@andrewmcglashan9770]

Ur right mate his son is on my footy team

[@fomosynthesis]

This is true.

[@darrynaustin6379]

If port got the licence first they would've gone bankrupt after a year , as it was they went bankrupt in 2014 and now they're owned and controlled by the afl

[@thegaz-man]

Wasn't there the story that even when they came in to the AFL in 1997, they only had the funds for the first three months?

[@chrish4469]

You pronounced Mark Mickan name wrong, It's pronounced Mickin not Mickcan

[@thegaz-man]

Cheers, will take that on board! Real underrated player, Mickan.

[@BGwControlStop]

Why do you say Mark Mah-Can, it’s Mark Mikkan.

[@thegaz-man]

Honestly no idea haha

[@darrynaustin6379]

The afl have cheated the crows since interception , I can name so many incidents

[@thegaz-man]

Par for the course for non-Vic teams sometimes, it seems

[@Young_SlayerKO]

CARN crows
