    Player Watch Max Michalanney - Re-Signed to End of 2026

    Most impressive thing about Max is what he does at full pace or full stretch. Never panicks and always executes. Never gets beaten. Great signs.

    Review Good/Bad vs North Melbourne, R7 2024

    Worst team in the comp. No other team is going to gift us that many opportunities. Rankine is a gun. Dawson finding form. Liked Fogs work rate, even though he got burner and ignored so many times. I watched the forward line fairly closely and it looks like Tex has right of way leading down...

    Roast Olsen and the board.

    Fish rots at the head. The tone gets set from the top. This board is crying out for more football people. Politicians make the worst board members. They have big egos overrate themselves and are so used to towing the company line, they may as well not be there. And, they are generally...

    Opinion Recruiting and List Management Team: Hamish Ogilvie, Justin Reid & Co

    Not saying Hamish made the call, but there are claims he has watched Danger a fair bit and was a fan. Obviously Rendell made the final call.

    Opinion Recruiting and List Management Team: Hamish Ogilvie, Justin Reid & Co

    Hamish is no Messiah, in fact far from it when comes to recruitment. He's best used as a spotter assigned to watch people play footy and report back. His thing is exposed junior form. Hes not suited to being a head recruiter who needs to actually predict how these kids will turn out However...

    List Mgmt. 2024 List Mismanagement and Trading

    This is absolutely the time to be playing Nank and Cook and give them a block of games. Everyone makes mistakes. You only get better from learning from these mistakes and no, it's nothing like playing in the SANFL. Whilst not empowering our most talented players to go our there and learn from...

    2nds 2024 Adelaide Crows SANFL thread

    In the most simple terms, there is a system and there are players. The trick is to try and align both in the best possible way. Sure you have the chicken and egg thing, but great coaches just make this work and seem to find the system and roles that allows the player to flourish. Nicks is...

    Roast The Rotten Stench of the AFC

    Everything starts at the board level. Let's do a quick comparison: John Olsen (Chairman), Linda Fellows (Deputy Chair), Mark Ricciuto, Richard Fennell, Kate Ellis, Stephen Roche, Shanti Berggren, Imelda Lynch and Graeme Goodings. There's only 1 member with an actual footballing...

    Opinion Recruiting and List Management Team: Hamish Ogilvie, Justin Reid & Co

    I don't know how anyone can objectively look at the body of evidence and say we've recruited well.

    Opinion Recruiting and List Management Team: Hamish Ogilvie, Justin Reid & Co

    It hilarious listening to the Hamish supporters who want to claim every speck of success but have an excuse for every single failure. You can't have it both ways. Any objective observer can see how poorly he's performed and the results don't lie. As a professional recruiter you have to...

    Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 2) - Full Support of the Board

    My issue with Nicks is he just doesn't seem to be a good learner. He's been taught so many great lessons, but he sees them as anomalies always looking to drift back to what he knows and believes. All the changes that work continue to be the last resort and he's immediately looking to change...
