Pedlar over Murphy every day of the week,
Hardwick would love coaching against this bloke.

Everyone does

 

[ABAB]

And for those thinking we would delist Murphy at the end of the year

What if he continue to be shit and get zero possession in the last quarter???? A blessing in disguise when he dominate the SANFL and doesn't get any AFL exposure this year then we will re-sign him.

So... is Murphy in replacing Rachele? Or is he in replacing Crouch?

Crouch is just having a rest, so if it's the latter then he should be back out next week. But if he's replacing Rachele, then he's likely in for the next month.

Or alternatively, is Draper replacing Crouch, and Murphy replacing him as the sub?



This sounds strange. So is Nankervis actually in? Or are they still choosing between him and Berry?

Peatling likely replaces Crouch in the middle.

 

[triggyscrewedus]

All I can think of is they think it's going to be a loss so they're keeping Crouch, Pedlar, fresh for Geelong.

Last time we played in Geelong Nicks made it abundantly clear how hard it is to win at the cattery blah blah blah negative talk, pre-empting the inevitable outcome.
That mindset hasn't charged.

 

[CrowBloke]

Where are all the exultant Happy Clappers telling us what a genius Nicks is ....?

[CrowBloke]

What's surprising is that Murray Davis doesn't step in on this sort of stuff.

Yes, painfully disappointing.

“Murph completed a strong pre-season and has been playing at a really high level,” Adelaide Head of Football Adam Kelly said.

 

[Crow till I die]

I'll take everything back if Murphy gets 40 touches, kicks 8 goals and destroys Rowell

I get cramp in my index finger from scrolling past these essays

Who scrolls with their index finger

 

[Bernie L]

Murphy will come in and kick 4 just to piss off Big Footy.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Oh well it was fun while it lasted

 

[Crow_68]

An arrogant selection - club getting ahead of itself again.

You and me both though I tend to scroll past all that posters input.

Nankervis Guaranteed to be Sub

Nank has more talent and ability in his toe nail clippings than Murphy has in his family tree.

Where’s all the clappers with the bed wetting posts?

His brother is actually tracking pretty well

An arrogant selection - club getting ahead of itself again.

I'm not sure it's arrogance, it's delusional.

If they genuinely believe he's the next best forward in the squad, that's textbook delusion.

 

[DJ75]

Nicks is 100% coaching for the now. Win now. Experience matters.
That's it. That's all he's thinking.
He's such a simpleton.

Crouch is out. Our one inside mid bull is out - in a game with the AFL's best in the role. So we bring in an undersized (and shit) defensive forward and a half back flanker?

Why not bring Bond in for a tagging role on Rowell? Bond has the engine, strength and determination. Draper comes in for Rachele and plays forward with some spurts on ball.
Nank to the sub role.

Would make us much better than the current option.

 

[Peter Doherty]

It's now up to Pedlar/Taylor/Dowling/Schoenberg/Berry etc to show Nicks their weapons.

You have to show your weapon to get a game.

Where’s all the clappers with the bed wetting posts?

my take is with a full list bar 2 injuries to choose from, Murph better bring his A game and nothing less should be expected.

we want Murphy to be better. its a fact had he been at any other club other than WCE he is likely to have been delisted years ago. 10 good games in 100 is not good enough at any level let alone AFL. But since this is the first game of the season for his selection im willing to grant it a pass.

If he plays well, gets 15-20 possies and a goal or some assists i dont think we can complain about that performance. If on the other hand he plays a typical Murph game of 7 possies in the first 3 quarters then completely disappears in the 4th then it falls to next week.

How can Nicks possibly accept a typical Murph game? this is the accountability test the clubs been ranting about now as part of the Davis sales pitch.
