ADELAIDE coach Neil Craig has signed a two-year contract extension that will see him remain at the club until at least the end of the 2011 season.
Craig, who has taken the Crows to the finals in each of his three full seasons said on Tuesday that he wanted to be a one-club coach.
"I have probably said I will only be a senior coach at one AFL club, and that's the Adelaide Football Club," Craig said.
"I'm really clear in my mind on that, and I can't see any reason why that would change."
Adelaide chief executive officer Steven Trigg said Craig was steering the club in the right direction.
“Neil continues to do an outstanding job for our football club. Extending his term provides a clear direction for our club, as well as a stable environment for the coaches and playing group," Trigg said: .
“External expectations at various times over the past four or five years have been that we were not going to be competitive. To the contrary, under Neil’s full-time leadership we have been extraordinarily competitive, competing in the finals series each year (to date). At the same time, we’re delighted with the progress made in terms of list management.”
