Preview R9: Changes vs. Richmond
An "I was wrong". An admission that a footy opinion on the internetz does mean a pile of shit. People are happy to post "I was right" or "I called it" but there is serious lack of "I was wrong". And this is one of those times. -
Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 4) - Re-Signed to 2027...
North are like us a few years ago. Can hold up against good teams for a little while then fold. Can win games vs bottom 4. That's about their stage of team building. If we completely under esitmate them, we may lose. BUT all else being equal, they may push us for a half. This is ignoring... -

Reports are that Jones is a very clever footballer and is hard to teach. Not that he doesn't listen, but isn't a smart footballer. -

Dogs at Marvel should be blue. Some of these entirely depend on players returning after the bye and staying fit. -

Thinking through a 9 day break. McAndrew may not need a rest. Thilly however I think could use a week off. -

Our son was influenced to barrack for Collingwood by family friends when he was young young. When the Buckley vs Malthouse thing happened he realised Pies were shit so he went GWS in their 1st year.

No. The T sign was brought out before half time. Can't recall exact timing. But after T was brought out we scored 1 quick goal, not playing Tempo footy. -
Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"
He has an Attack and a Tempo game plan. There's the kick long down the line and the switch and spread. Even brought out the T for tempo at some stage way too early in Showdown. Luckily players slingshoted out a goal. (from my perspective at score board end 10m out side 50m arc 5 rows back)... -
Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"
I think Nicks has a solid understanding of game style and teaching the players correctly. He's shit at adapting game PLAN and bad at pivoting when things aren't working out. He goes into a game with a plan and when it works out we pile on goals. When it doesn't he is way too slow to react... -

Despite a touch of the fumbles, that clearly shows some very good 1 touch possies under pressure. -

And even if he got the ball 48 times he would have been an "ineffective accumulator crab". There is always a negative when someone doesn't like a player. -
Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"
Bad trading can ruin sides. SOS ruined Carlton. Didn't draft well. Even when we gave up too much for Gibbs they couldn't capitalise. Not that we were drafting well in those years, but using those picks on better midfielders may have had a lasting impact on our midfied today. -
Crows Chat That 'Doesnt Deserve Its Own Thread' Thread part 2
He always answered to his SANFL bosses when working at Crows. There was a year the Crows broke even. But SANFL still got their full dividend, causing a loss. He never fought for the Club vs the AFL lest the AFL get mad at the SANFL licence holder. Of course the SANFL views him favourably. -
Opinion Non-Crows AFL 14 "Put your Foot in it"
Is this why the AFL came sniffing around the Crows wondering how we rebuilt from a clean-out so fast despite their best attempts to sabotage it. -

the new fitness team. Soreness, fatigue, underpreparation, over-preparation.... Just everyone having heavy legs could affect touch when kicking or soreness the ability to bend therefore fumbles. Not saying game plan is fine at all. But a team wide effect can be explained by that. There is also...
