Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 3) - Re-Signed to 2027...

[WaynesWorld19]

Ruining the legacy of Balme would be only something the Adelaide Crows could achieve

I thought you got wiser with age & experience ...... far less emotion involved in the thought process

 

[Peter Doherty]

Because there stupid is the underlying premise?

Yes.

 

[Pugsley]

only the stupid ones

Indeed.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

We know Nicks isn't. 2024 finals exhibit A

Did you just flip a coin

 

[Scorpus]

I thought you got wiser with age & experience ...... far less emotion involved in the thought process

It's pretty straightforward stuff

If Nicks fails, Balme is accountable, thus ruining his legacy. No emotion in this whatsoever, those are the facts

 

[cleanhands]

Indeed.

Makes for short reading …………………hmmm worth a try

 

[Pugsley]

Did you just flip a coin

You didn't watch?Obviously. Probably would have gone on holiday instead of watching those putrid 8 quarters if I could have

Saves energy

Left foot, right foot......pause.......left foot, right foot.....

The old saying one year too long

 

[Southerntakeover]

Wayne doing a lap of honour over a straight sets exit is one of the most devoid of dignity things you'll ever see

 

[skittlebrew]

What about at least a quarter

Tough to win a quarter without a midfield. Tag Dawson and who else do we have?

Show me a flag winning team with a weak midfield?

Who knows what he's doing or his opinions

but the apricot slice and Chardonnay is cheap.

Balme to Adelaide as is Blight to St Kilda

 

[cleanhands]

So now you are talking flags

 

[Pugsley]

Balme to Adelaide as is Blight to St Kilda

You just have to know when to bow out.

 

[Southerntakeover]

but the apricot slice and Chardonnay is cheap.

He doesn't go to games.

The losing hurts a bit more in person.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

It's pretty straightforward stuff

If Nicks fails, Balme is accountable, thus the Crows will have ruined his legacy.

Every Coach eventually gets sacked .....so at some stage you naysayers will be able to say "I told you so" ......although you missed that chance with your 10-year rants on David Mackay

The one-year extension still puts the onus on Nicks to go a step further in Finals ......an irresponsible Club probably would have added 2-3 years to his existing Contract

Nicks has the list now ....he has organically developed experience from a former young list.....and they have traded in some highly experienced players

There's no excuse now ....the one-year extension provides stability to the playing group, potential 2026 trade targets, and a justifiable extension based on 2025

 

[Scorpus]

Who knows what he's doing or his opinions

We'll find out shortly whether he resigns from the board

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

You just have to know when to bow out.

Malthouse to Carlton

 

[TRP1996]

Don't see what you're all complaining about - with two more 18 win H&A seasons and a single finals win, Nicks will equal Neil Craig as our most successful coach of all time:

 

[Pugsley]

He doesn't go to games.

The losing hurts a bit more in person.

The lack of logical reasoning hurts the rest of us.

 

[Bernie L]

We were....and that's a coaching issue. The coach needs to be able to get his team back on track.

Whilst I dont disagree with you, the players hold a lot of accountability here.

 

[Scorpus]

Every Coach eventually gets sacked .....so at some stage you naysayers will be able to say "I told you so" ......although you missed that chance with your 10-year rants on David Mackay

No one would say "I told you so" if he wins a flag then gets sacked years later

The clear issue is many believe he cannot coach at all and there have been zero results so far to prove he can win a flag

On Mackay, I was 100% correct saying we would never win a flag with him in the side and that his continued selection was indicative of a fundamentally unsuccessful club
