The Adelaide Crows are set to launch their own radio show on Adelaide’s 104.7 Triple M during the 2022 home and away season.
The show is set to bring unparalleled access to the team, as well as analysis and news from the Adelaide Crows' perspective. The show is set to be hosted by former Crows' big man Sam Jacobs and Triple M's Mark Thomas, who are going to bring a lighter side to the seriousness of football.
Adelaide will become the first and only AFL team to have both a free to air TV show and a free radio show, with Belinda Sloane joining Mark Bickley on the TV program.
On Sunday, the show debuted with a feature chat with young midfielder Ned McHenry, as well as a flashback moment with Jason Porplyzia. Among the serious stuff was a chat about locker room banter, giving an insight into behind the scenes of the Adelaide Football Club.
