MALCOLM BLIGHT

TELLS THE INSIDE STORY

OF ADELAIDE'S

PREMIERSHIP SEASON

No coach has ever taken a

team from 12th place to the

premiership in one season...

or won four matches in one

finals campaign.

Malcolm Blight, one of South

Australia's most decorated sons

accepted the challenge of

coaching the Adelaide Crows

in 1997.

The rest is history. Glorious,

spectacular, Premiership history.

For the first time, Blight

recounts the highs and lows of

1997. He talks frankly of the

wins and the losses, the men

who are now part of the

immortal 21, who brought

home the first AFL Premiership

Cup to South Australia,

If 1997 was sweet then

1998 was sublime. This was

the year the Adelaide Crows

dumbfounded the judges

and made a mockery of the

upstaged raging favourite

North Melbourne.

Not since Richmond 1920-21

had a team won their first and

second premierships back to back.

For super coach Malcolm Blight

this was a season of ups and

downs. We trace the Crows

progress as they set out to

defend their premiership, their

fight to make the final eight

CAMRY

and their battle for survival week

after week.

We join Malcolm Blight as he

faces his weekly post match

media barrage.

Still Crowing is a chronicle

of the highlights of Adelaide

in 1998.

The sllky skills of Darren Jarman have

made him a player of he era,

A champion at two clubs, a match win-

ner who could destroy an opposition side

With one withering burst of football.

Long sought

after by AFL

clubs,

Jarman would leave his home town of

Adelalde and Immedlately make his mark

as a premiership player with Hawthom in

1991.

At the end of 1995 after 109 games

with the Hawks, a club best and fairest

and a dual All Australlan, Jarman would

return home. His career would be re

born.

The man of magic would star in two

premierships with Adelalde under the

maestro Malcolm Blight, add more than

100 games with the Crows and again

win All Australlan honors.

Few players have dazzled In an AFL

career llke Darren Jarman - a man who

made it look so easy, who regularly

stunned teammates and foes with his

effortless attacks on goal and who

would leave the game in 2001 as one of

Adelalde's most decorated players.
