The Adelaide Football Club, nicknamed The Crows, is an Australian rules football club playing in the Australian Football League, based in Adelaide, South Australia.
The club is based at AAMI Stadium (formerly Football Park) in West Lakes and the club song is "The Pride of South Australia", which uses the tune of the United States Marine Corps Hymn. Famous players include Mark Ricciuto, Andrew and Darren Jarman, Andrew McLeod and Tony Modra. The club is currently coached by Neil Craig, who replaced Gary Ayres when he resigned mid-season in 2004. Craig, initially a caretaker coach, was subsequently appointed to the position permanently from 2005 onwards.
Club history
The
South Australian National Football League, who ran the local competition, had been seeking to enter a team in what was then the
Victorian Football League since 1981. Protracted negotiations were brought to a head in 1990 after an SANFL team, the
Port Adelaide Football Club, reached agreement with the AFL to enter their competition. Because the
Port Adelaide Football Club represented only a fraction of the interest of football followers resident in South Australia, legal action followed, and eventually the league agreed to enter the composite Adelaide team in 1991.
