The Adelaide Football Club has finalised the panel of external experts who will conduct a thorough review of its football program.

Australian Football Hall of Famer Jason Dunstall will Chair the panel and he will be joined by six-time All-Australian Matthew Pavlich, as well as renowned high performance expert Tim Gabbett and one of the country’s premier leadership and performance experts Jonah Oliver.

Crows CEO Andrew Fagan will provide support to the panel as requested and directed by the Chair during the process that will examine all elements that impact on-field performance, including coaching, leadership, development, environment, high performance and list management.

Crows Chairman Rob Chapman said the Club is committed to finding improvement and the review will play an important step in that process.  

“The panel members have a diverse range of skills, knowledge and expertise across football and high performance programs, and importantly bring a contemporary view of the AFL and professional sporting landscape,” Chapman said.

“We hear and acknowledge the concerns of our members and fans, and share their frustration regarding recent on-field performances and this will be a rigorous and thorough process.

“We are committed to challenging ourselves and current practices to ensure the football program is the best it can be, and one that produces results of which our supporters are proud.”

Adelaide will release the key findings upon completion of the review, which is expected to run for several weeks.
