    Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 4) - Re-Signed to 2027...

    The difference this year will be finals starting from 10th position, compared to 8th position I don't think a coach that 'makes finals' by losing a 7th versus 10th matchup should be safe from a sacking

    Rumour Speculation, Rumours, Lies Thread 2026 - Part 2

    Terrible is probably too far, but many underwhelming coaches have had outlier years Hinkley's 18 win season Brad Scott's 16 win season at North Sanderson's 18 win season Ratten's 15 win season Leon Cameron's 17 win season Gary Ayres' 16 wins season at Adelaide Voss' 15 win season Chris...

    Ken Hinkley (who is terrible according to Port fans)

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    Of course backing him in was a fluke. Is there any other example of doing so working? For every Hardwick that gets backed, there's a Voss or a Hinkley or a Dew or a Richardson or a Bolton that flops

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    Exactly. Hardwick took a team that won 5 games before he got there and had them playing finals with 15 H&A wins after just four seasons. Nicks took a team that won 10 games and had them winning 11 games four seasons later with no finals until his 6th season

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    I'm saying the fluke is that backing him in actually worked. For most other clubs who have ever done it for a poorly performing coach after a few seasons, it hasn't worked We have got to stop using Hardwick as an excuse to keep backing in bad coaches. The same thing most likely won't happen. It...

    He's missing out on the sweet reward of being named an emergency for the first time in round 24 of his second season

    Hardwick was a new coach when he was hired? If you're referring to Richmond backing him, that was a massive fluke that won't be repeated

    Surely not, would be absolute madness to attempt that again after seeing what happened against Richmond

    Decent changes. I would have dumped Borlase though We'll roll Cumming back hopefully where he should have always been. Cook and Curtin on the wings

    Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14: Voss gone, who's next?

    I think if they went down the succession plan option they'd be better off with a retired premiership coach into a highly rated assistant Get someone like John Longmire to set the standards of what is required at a successful club, then hand the reigns over to someone who's done an...
