[Viva la Mattner]

Laughable selection
Glad I’m not going now
Nicks can **** off, he’s a bloody snake oil salesman … talks up a game and same shit
How many times does Frampton have to fail? Himmelberg stays in ?! Yet young highly talented guys in Pedlar and Thilthorpe rot in the SANFL
The guys has no idea , he’s a Hinkley clone talks a great game
Motivates but tactically useless
Hope we finish bottom again , get a good draft pick , sack Nicks and offer Clarkson a blank cheque

 

[MrBarry]

How does Hately not get a game? How does Pedlar get dropped after 1 game?

Pedlar being dropped after 1 game last week I called.

It's standard operating procedure at Adelaide.

 

[UcantCme]

Pissed off that Pedlar is dropped after 1 game, not to mention he is played out of position

2 games in the 2s is hardly rotting. Maybe there is a reason for it. Lets see how it goes and back the boys in.

Who the **** is in charge of selection? It cannot actually be the coaching group.

We have turned that box over and we still get rubbish like this?

There is a sinister force that pulls the strings. There is simply no other explanation.

 

[Bearded Clam]

Sloane out for Laird was a given..

But

Murphy is hot garbage.. Pedlar has 10 times the potential.

And how himmelbin survives I’ll never know..

Can we start talking about changing the selectors/coaches..

Maybe we should be throwing this entire years profit at Clarkson after all..

Just. Baffling..

 

[I Lost My Keays]

We’re going for the 1st pick of the draft.

Murphy and Frampton? No EH dropped? I’ve seen it all

 

[texanmike]

lol.....****ing hopeless these coaches, nothing has changed at the Adelaide Football Club, if i was Pedlar or Berry i'd be requesting a trade to another club at end of Season. Absolute fruitcakes, fk the lot of em.

 

[Scorpus]

Pedlar being dropped after 1 game last week I called.

It's standard operating procedure at Adelaide.

Why did we even pick him? Bring him in for one game, out of position, set him up to fail then drop him.

Putrid development. No wonder our young players are often busts

 

[Crow_68]

Club is stuck in No Man’s Land again.

Certain people too focussed on saving their own arses this season, rather than looking at long term.

If we get a pasting, hope to see a sack Nicks thread appear on our board.

 

[CrowToon]

At least when Mackay was picked every week he would occasionally pull together a good game or even just do some nice things in a game.

EH gives nothing.

 

[1970crow]

How do you pass the time? Podcasts? Audiobooks? That much driving would send me crazy

I've had up to 3 xxxxxx on some of the many 1500km drives from Alice to Adelaide. The mind, it certainly does wander. I could tell a very funny story about how I learned from my brother that one should always drive long distance with a spare sock in the cabin. But, I don't think I should do that. Something about cold feet though, nothing else, just in case old mate is out there with his banning device.

Who the fu** is in charge of selection? It cannot actually be the coaching group.

Given this same bizarre shit at the selection table has been happenning for a few years now and we have really only had one constant… with most other footy dept staff has been turned over..

Could it be..

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

Why even play Pedlar last week then? **** me.

Last chance Billy, shown a bit of heart pls.

We've been doing this for decades.

 

[SugarShane]

Was a bit concerned at the outs but then I remembered it means we can get a rare glimpse into unknown quantity blokes like Himmelberg and Frampton and see if they have it at AFL level.

 

[BACCS]

Oh dear, they are some terrible selections, wow. Pedlar one week and out. Frampton for Murray I can live with, but Murphy for Pedlar is horrible. Had no issues with Murphy as sub, but would appear Pedlar gets that role now.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Imagine our duo in Frampton and EH in the forward line?

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

Frankston for Murray is a bit pointless but not really a big problem.
But I don’t understand why he keep picking mids, playing the out of position, then dropping them after 1 game.
At best it’s a waste of time, but potentially harmful to development.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Murphy shouldn’t be in our team full stop.
