In 1991 the Adelaide Crows Football Club joined the newly formed Australian Football League and quickly established themselves as a quality football team. The club, nicknamed 'The Crows',
were the first team from Adelaide to be granted an AFL licence and they achieved back to back premierships in 1997-98.
The Crows home ground is AAMI Stadium which is in the heart of Adelaide and has become a bit of a fortress for the home side. Club colours are red, yellow and navy blue and the Crows generally play their home games in front of a packed stadium of passionate locals which gives them a decided home ground advantage over their opponents.
Adelaide Crows in 2011

Adelaide Crows 2011 Best and Fairest winner: Scott Thompson
Scott Thompson was outstanding for the Adelaide Crows and he led the way in the midfield with a total of 643 possessions for the season, playing every match for the Crows.
