I've always admired Nigel Smart - a top player over a long period.

In his prime he seemed to be to the Crows what Guy McKenna was to the Eagles.

And if you know Eagles fans you'll know that's high praise indeed.

Yeah they do have the right but when it is down right abuse, that offends every other user then it is an unwanted opinion

On team boards, you must respect that teams supporters. Rubbishing players on their tribute thead is unacceptable. Go & do that on the Main Board or the Port Board if that's how you get your kicks.

It's simple Kane ban this tool from OUR board

OMG ohh well Kane at least he is one of the few Port supporters that actually have a job

A champion player who does not fit the typical stereotype of the footballer. Congratulations Nigle on a great career and providing us with some of the most cherished memories in our short history.

Lets hope the boys win for Nigel.

Congratulations to Nigel Smart on a sensational career. You have brought so many great memories to me, and have been a great ambassedor to the Adelaide Football Club.

Good luck in where ever the future takes you.

Just put my 2 bobs worth in - Always had a lot of time for Nigel Smart. One of those players (like Hart, Bickley and Ricciuto) that sums up your footy club pretty well - highly respectable, professional and bloody good. End of an era seeing the last of the originals bow out. I remember thinking when Chris Lewis retired at the Eagles (in similar circumstances to Nigel actually), its a link back to the absolute start that breaks. When you stop to think about it, there has never been a Crows squad without Nigel Smart - all the time you've followed the club, he's been there.

So the best of luck to Nigel in the future, no doubt that shiny head contains a rather large brain, so I doubt footy will be the only heights Nigel scales in life.

Looks like I can't say anything about Nigel!!

Which only goes to show your own limitations and not his.

Always one of my favorite non-Bulldogs even though he cost us a premiership. Kept you guys in it in the first half in '97 and then went on to win the game in the second half. Geez I got sick of watching that bald head bobbing up and down while he ran the ball out of defence.



Good luck on sunday Nigel-but not too much!

Congrats to Nigel Smart on announcing his retirement.

I hope that his team has a good win for him so that he can celebrate a little early.

Good luck Nige

 

[RaDaR ReiLLy]

Love you Nige

Goodluck Sunday you are a legend matay!!

No I wouldnt call it that as I dont go onto other team boards and abuse their clubs players, which is what Carzy_Big_Al did on our board. I have my opinion on the AFC board and other boards but have never had a go at a Champion player like Nigel on another team board

Some Port Adelaide Power fans will beg to differ.

I have never had a direct go at a Port Power player, I'd like to see some proof I have had a go at the club and it's suppoters but never the players

Good on you Radar

Tomorrow is going to be a very sad day indeed reguardless of the result, we are losing a AFC Champion and Legend, always given his all everytime he has pulled on the red,blue and gold hoops. Played the game with great determindation and pride.

Smarty you are a champ best of luck for tomorrow and show us just one last time why you are one of the very best at the AFC

On ya Nigel What a champ....should have played on the wing for most of his carreer but was good enough to play key position and do jobs when ever required.......Wouldn't mind a few Smarts in the next draft....have great game.
