Wednesday saw panic break out amongst AFL fans with Mick Malthouse threatening to coach once again.
The announcement came after Kevin Bartlett suggested Malthouse would be the perfect fit for Adelaide.
"I've got a passion to coach again," said Malthouse in response.
The AFL said if Malthouse did go to the Crows, they would instantly give them seven Friday night games.
Adelaide fans have reacted badly to the news.
"Why is this even being reported?" said Crows member Janice Denning.
"We don’t want to be the next Carlton. Even Carlton don't want to be Carlton.
"Thanks for nothing Kevin."
Malthouse said while it was premature, he believes he could attract big names to Adelaide.
"I'm pretty confident I could get Daisy Thomas to come across to replace Dangerfield if he leaves."
Repeated attempts to get a comment from the Adelaide Football Club were met with hysterical laughter.

Please let it be just a furphy. When Malthouse took over at Carlton I switched my allegience back to Adelaide believing he would destroy the blues. Now he wants to destroy Adelaide or even worse I might have to go back to supporting Carlton at such a high point in their history. If there is a God let him please be a crow and message Malthouse that there is no better place to be than in Melbourne or at least not in Adelaide.

Oh no its official Mick has struck a deal with Crows to coach them next year. He is taking a colleague of his as his assistant as part of the package. Insiders say Tyrannosaurus will be his senior assistant coach and they are still working on the renaming rights of Adelaide Oval to change to Jurassic Park to ensure Mick has a homely venue.

Can just imagine the man they call Roo and the one they prefer to call Hooroo trying to live in a city of only a million people Adelaide just isn't big enough for them both. With 45 pubs and the owner of a couple of Adelaide suburbs Roo isn't going far so Mick would be better to focus on applying as the next coach of Fitzroy he would understand their game plan better than Carltons even.
