Ch9 about to announce Nicks' new RH man tonight in the sports report....

What time is said sports report?

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Surely amongst those clubs we would by far have the ability to offer the most $$ and tenure to Peatling.

Get it done.

Who's Nicks' 'right hand man'???

The blowfly

 

[FR0GGY]

Not a chance ! .....he's fishing all the time, that's his passion

His son playing AFL has what bearing on Rowes footy knowledge, prey tell ?

Geesus ....I could get a job as a SANFL coach these days .....are the assistants actually paid, or are they volunteers now

Yes people can only have 1 passion!

My passion is indecision.

[pjcrows]

More money, more midfield time, happy gf and play infront of 45k+ regularly...... the decision not actually that hard.

Yeah why would a player not jump at the chance to play at Adelaide?

 

[50BC]

That’s got nothing to do with this, we are trying to pry out a player that is a local academy product and has all his family/friends living near him. Offering more money and a guaranteed midfield spot is the best we can do here, if that’s not enough we can’t do anymore.

In what universe does us being a particularly unsuccessful team not make that challenge an even harder sell than it already is?

Procrast…..ination?

First move, any supporter/member who has supported the clubs stupid decisions over the last year are exiled

 

[jenny61_99]

Who is going to be first with the news?

 

[cleanhands]

You are clearly wrong here, and on many fronts .....you watched maybe a couple of games .....I watched all 17 games

LOL, you can't see FA with positioning on TV

Saying Rowe is an expert commentator is like saying a brick has a personality .....you may think it's a radio personna, but you can't hide your real self for 20 years ......and when a person gets angry, as Rowe does, the curtains come down, the filters disappear ... the real person is exposed

He's a class A Moron !

[jbanger]

Highly regarded from the Brisbane Lions....

 

[croweater 41]

Anyone else seen the Keays video on X today?

Worst thing I may have ever seen but creates a bit of a rumour none the less. I’ll find it in a second no idea who he is meeting with in it.

 

[Viva la Mattner]

Never heard of him

 

[Anzacpaul]

You cant get a 3rd strike out of completion mate.
Keep it real.

This board is known for its hyperbole, myself included
