Yeah Nick's presser was funny. Acts like Sloane is integral to our team. Lol. Silly fool.
Can’t listen to him, unsurprising he’d take the opportunity to talk Sloane up.

Part of that was due to the fact that we cant sue the owners of our club which is the AFL. I would have thought that some discussion at the board would have revolved around how do we get ownership before 2028.
Is it that strange though?
The point is that you can’t judge a loss against the Eagles in this week’s dead-rubber as incontrovertible evidence that we ‘wouldn’t have made the 8 anyway’. There’s the undeniable maths that we needed 2 wins against the Swans and Eagles to make the 8, but with the win denied against the Swans by an AFL-sanctioned ****-up we’re not getting a live game in the final round, and the result (win, lose or draw) tells us nothing about how it might have played out under that alternative scenario. It doesn’t matter a stuff if the Crows lose to West Coast now, and that fact alone might change how the game plays out (and if we’re smart like Geelong and don‘t risk key players in a dead-rubber we move even further away from this equivalency argument).The "narrative" changes, week by week.
What's possible after Round 22 becomes impossible in Round 23 (and Rounds before that, looking ahead) and that's true for several teams. There's no 'true' or 'false' about it.
Essendon and Geelong were 'alive', before Round 23. Now they're kaput.
As of last Friday, 18/08/23, we needed to beat both Sydney and WC to finish 12-11, and have other results go our way to finish 8th.
At that time, we all knew we had to beat WC, contingent on also beating Sydney first.
Lose to Sydney ==> the narrative changes.
It's the outsiders, the Vics, the Crow-haters that will laugh at the Crows if they lose to WC this week.
The dynamic of the game is different, for sure. A win won't get us into the 8. That's gone.
What hope do we have without his experience?No Sloane, just forfeit I reckon. What's the point.
I can’t remember the last time I watched one of his pressers, don’t know how the players do itCan’t listen to him, unsurprising he’d take the opportunity to talk Sloane up.
Apart from the fact he couldn’t pick sloane it sound like Nicks will be the one most up and about, and why not when you can hammer a team at home and take the meaningless 4 points!I expect the players will be even flatter than we are
I reckon you get a free pass if you’re taking your son to the footy. I try and curtail my deeply-grounded frustration with the club in front of my two younger kids (wasn’t easy on Saturday night watching Sloane’s woeful first-half efforts while Pedlar warmed the pine), and like you I question handing over any $$$ to the AFL. But some of my fondest childhood memories are going to the footy with my Dad, and it’s an experience that’s worth replicating as a now parent in my opinion. Gil and his minions have taken away a lot when it comes to enjoying football, but they shouldn’t be able to take away those moments you get with your kids at the footy. Stiff upper lip and do it for your son!i have a dilemma….
I’ve been looking forward all year to taking my son to this game. And a few weeks ago when they scheduled it for a Saturday night was an added bonus.
I also want to support the boys.
But the last thing I feel like doing is going to the footy. Firstly because it’s so gutting and secondly I don’t want to give the **** in AFL house my hard earned.
Thoughts please?
We need experience….can Sloane wear an eye patch?Strange that we wouldn't throw a debut to Dowling in a game like this
Has had a good season. Would be great to finish on a high.
Another good reply, thanks.And with finals gone there are far more tangible benefits in losing to the Eagles - pick 6 in the national draft being the most obvious. The Crow-haters will hate on us regardless. Put the external noise aside and do what’s best for the club going forward. Rest at least half a dozen of our better players. Don‘t risk Tex doing a ACL. Or Rankine re-injuring his hamstring. Shore up pick 6, start the pre-season fit, and consign 2023 to the bin. The sugar-hit we’d get from beating the worst Eagles side in history won’t sustain us for more than a minute after the siren goes in any case.
I agree.I expect the players will be even flatter than we are
Give Mason Cox a call? He might have a solution.We need experience….can Sloane wear an eye patch?

You would have thought he is Sydney's coach.Does anyone else find his face irritating? Especially those smirks. We just got shafted, * smiling

In the post-Trump world it doesn’t matter if what is stated is demonstrably bullshit….It’s the vibe.Huh? Nicks barely mentioned him other than to say he wouldn’t play and why.
I hate that we’ve given Sloane another, but ya’ll are jumping at shadows now.
