Having a pretty crappy Friday at work today - anyone got any trade rumours to brighten my day?

Don’t even care if they’re made up haha
 
Walker is the type of captain/leader that would be dedicated to 'His' team that he has owned and would struggle to adapt to another team this late in his career and also is probably so mentally damaged now that he wouldnt be able to give his 100% even if it was still good enough.
Got any actual evidence for such an assertion, or is this just a castle you're building in the air? What horrendous mental damage did he go through?

Have a good look at the state of the crows as well as his stepping down from the captaincy and his reason for doing so, I think just about anybody can see this.

THe guy lost a child
Extremely sad to hear, but it's still a leap to say that it prevents him from ever giving his best on the field again.

I have had a good look at the state of the Crows. Why does any of that mean he's "broken" and is incapable of mentoring anyone else? His reason for stepping down was to focus on enjoying his footy more as well as spending time with his family. How does that suggest he's "broken" and will never give his best effort again?
 
I want to reiterate that I don’t want Zac Smith back at our club.
He wet his bed and he should now have to lie in it preferably to his detriment for letting his mates down, the members and fans.
Bugger him.
This S*** is getting old Bods.
Zac didn’t walk out on the club he wasn’t offered a contract.
Zac was one of the only few that actually loved the club in that time period.

The day after Walker stepped down as captain, he announced that he and his wife are pregnant again, and that he wants to fully concentrate on his family.

He doesn’t want to leave Adelaide.


From someone who has witnessed the heartbreak of losing a child, I’d drop the current Tex discussion.

Zac seemed like a ripping bloke. I could imagine him getting another chance at a club like the Giants & having some real success.

Eade got rid of him Bods and as stated above he's an A Grade bloke.

For a God botherer:devil:
Do we need another guy who doesn't compete physically
That's always been my biggest markdown on him
We need a Big Mummy- an intimidator
Zac's niceness is his downfall sadly
 

He asked to be traded to Geelong.
Go shove your use of describing my philosophy as human poo divided loyalties fan.
I had to recently put up with over a month ban because of you degrading our fans and our club and your reporting of me.

My views are never old. I’m into loyalty 100% and not letting the people down. It’s never divided.

So once you wet your bed and let us down then sayonara.

No Zac Smith.

Go and report that.

Totally agree with that he's not aggressive enough he's a top bloke but l do not rate him as a footballer.
Bods Eade told him he didn't want him he also said some appalling things about him behind his back that got back to him. Had a real nasty streak did Rodney.
However l would rather have him as a back up over Nichols.
Smith is pretty useless
Nichols is absolutely useless.

TNic is well liked around the Club , best mates with El Capitano Spitta .
So I'm not sure removing the NEAFL's top ruckman for a reheated souffle like Zac makes any sense at all
Nicholls has had very few opportunities at senior level, but a couple of years ago he competed very well in the NAB Cup

Nichols is ABSOLUTELY USELESS and l'm not advocating doing anything with Smith I DON'T RATE HIM EITHER.

We can agree that neither are worth retaining on AFL list.

If Crossley gets delisted the club either take:

  • Conroy
  • Draft Luke Jackson if there at end of 1st Rd
  • Nicholls as a rookie if nothing better pans out
