Nicks was our defence coach in 2013-15 years, (then Bassett took over) and Hinkley had cast the die from day one with Neade and the next year with Sam Gray. Don't try and pass the buck.

It does sound delusional but when you consider the Crows achieved 2 x AFLW plus 1 x AFLX premierships and have 100,000 e-members called A. Hitler it puts things into perspective.
Freo have just put similiar grand plans, its just marketing.

Any coincidence that Hungry Jacks signed up as a Crow sponsor and immediately releases Sour Bursties? 
And how would that prevent Nicks from having an influence on overall selection of the team? You don't think all of the assistants would have a say? And if we're saying that Nicks would have zero influence on forwards (because he was defense coach), then shouldn't the forwards coach from 13-15 be copping blame? And the forwards coach form 17 to 19?
And from 13 to 16 Nicks was a big enough influence in the coaching group for us to promote him to senior assistant in 2017.
Never really lived up to his nickname of roller
Jack Watts is nervous.

side splittingly hilarious
Lol that can be interpreted at least 3 different ways, all of which are hilarious for different reasons.
Match review officer Michael Christian is set to remain in his role next year as the AFL attempts to provide players with greater clarity in its crackdown on head-high bumps.
The league’s revamp of the head-high rule means a trio of contentious bumps that saw players reported in 2021 would all be cut-and-dried suspensions next season.
Patrick Dangerfield’s Round 1 head clash that broke Jake Kelly’s nose and left him concussed as well as David Mackay’s accidental clash with Hunter Clark would both be clear-cut suspensions.
So would Lachie Plowman’s collision with Hawthorn’s Jaeger O’Meara, that saw the Carlton defender suspended for two weeks after it was judged he did not attempt to spoil or mark the ball.
Scott has made clear the league is keen to crack down on all incidents where a player bumps and makes head-high contact that injures a rival.
“In most instances there is a player who is late to that contest,“ Scott said this week.
“If you’re late and you hit the player in the head, you’re going to be in trouble. There’s broad acceptance of that amongst the clubs.”
The league’s challenge will be to provide a set of parameters and wording to players to ensure they are clear on their responsibilities to opponents.
Commentators have grown frustrated that players who forcibly bump rivals to the head – but do not injure them – are often treated differently to those who bump but concuss or injure rivals with the exact same force.

Apparently "gross incompetence" isn't a good enough reason to sack someone in the afl world.

Just waiting for abject failure.
The latest Crows anti vaxxer revealed...
The Adelaide Crows are dealing with another vaccine drama after a board member told the club he does not want to have the Covid-19 jab.
The shock revelation that Adelaide Crows director Nick Takos’ won’t have the jab comes a month after the club put AFLW star Deni Varnhagen on its inactive list because of her anti-vaccine stance.
Dr Takos, a lecturer and researcher at UniSA’s business school, was elected to the Crows board earlier this year but won’t be allowed into the club.
Dr Takos previously worked at the Crows for 14 years starting in the 1990s. He also filled a volunteer role with Adelaide’s past players and officials group.
Dr Takos has also worked in management positions in other sports such as cricket and netball, while his UniSA page says he is a “specialist in the areas of leadership, organisational culture, management, and sponsorship, particularly in the sport and recreation context”.
