That's quite interesting that Harvey made that assessment. Would have to agree with it, do you have any links talking about those assessments? Would be interesting to look at with hindsight.He had a great football brain and excellent defensive instincts but he lacked the pace or penetrating disposal that could have taken him to the elite category. I can't remember who I heard it from but when Mark Harvey came to the club he was asked to give a warts and all analysis of our list... apparently he said Adcock (even at his best) was a vanilla player that other teams put absolutely no planning into. You knew he'd take your best small forward regardless but he wasn't going to hurt you much on the rebound.
