Game Day Rd 12 vs the Swans

[AFC979810]

Get the 4 points. Don't care how ugly it is tonight.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Here we are where we have been before, other results in our favour, just need to get the win against an injury hit opponent. Can Nicks do something he has never done before?

 

[ssj3Pretz]

3rd spot on the ladder is ours if we win. Although GC do have an extra game on hand.

 

[Bovo]

Simply have to win tonight. Our board will experience all time melts if we lose.

Guarantee it’ll happen anyway. The Sack Nicks is in full flight and if the colour of his pee is wrong, they will be chanting it’s time to go!

So, don't sack Nicks?

That ****ing umpire who didn’t pay the free to Rankine in our Gold Coast game….would have had us clearly in 3rd already.

So you enjoy 38% winning percentages?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

The "a few of our players were sore" excuse is now locked and loaded if they lose

You don't coach six years without a sniff of finals without knowing a few tricks of the trade

Well said, Elmer (any luck with Wabbit Season?).

Drive safe. The M1 N of Sydney was a nightmare last October and watch for the E-tag cameras!
I was unprepared, got lost, on and off the M1 and got fined a motza.

I've bagged a few except for one who thinks his sh*t don't stink.
My son is driving so luckily not my problem this time around. Work is paying tolls. Heading to a cheap hotel after so all is organised for what maybe a very good "Swan season" huhuhuhuhuh

It honestly doesn’t affect me. If he stays he stays. If he goes he goes. It’s all out of my control so why get myself worked up when I have zero influence? Ask me 10 years ago and I’ll guarantee I’d have a different answer, but life’s lessons have taught me to just enjoy the ride.

If it doesn't affect you then what is the purpose of the ridiculous hyperbole?

I'm not a Nick's lover, but in fairness to the bastard, missing finals soley due to an umpiring error probably constitutes a 'sniff'

 

[TBM]

Draper sub again, because Nicks refuses to back a young player in or show any change-up in his thinking or tactics

He was Pick 4 for crying out loud. Give him an actual go.

He could be our best player in 3 years time if developed properly.

But nope.

 

[Scorpus]

Criminal management of Draper.

But it's not surprising

Davis and Balme need to intervene ASAP. Reward your talent

 

[pjcrows]

It's at a point now where Draper needs to play a month of full games in the AFL, or the SANFL. They're mismanaging him and everyone can see it. Playing him sub for games on end is detrimental.

It's a classic case of Matthew Nicks philosophies

Don't trust the kids
Don't change what's working
Don't consider the future

Everyone but Nicks. And you know he would condescendingly talk down to anyone who had a different view

One may say "he's young" but most high draft pick midfielders who are actually good, especially one who SMASHED the SANFL just last year, are able to manage proper AFL minutes in their first year, even if it's at half forward getting 14 touches a game.

Either Sid isn't that good (I HIGHLY doubt this) or Nicks is a ****wit who doesn't know how to foster talent properly...

Come on jamesclean ...

 

[Cromulant]

Criminal management of Draper.

But it's not surprising

Hes the exact type of player that's good as the sub.

But not multiple times
