Don't forget the lace-up jumpers.

Back in the dim and distant past both teams used to line up and raise one foot at a time so the field umpire could run a hand over the stops to check for nails.

I think there's zero chance Nicks goes.

I think they make more substantial changes with the assistants though.

The club has already suggested they are going to work around the problem, rather than actually fixing the problem... so nothing will really change... just because they can't admit they ****ed up extending Nicks & double-down stupid to extend our pain.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Hoping but not expecting

Not that often a senior coach is sacked post season but does happen

When’s the board due to meet post season?

St Kilda did to bring Lyon back.... but our management are far more conservative.

The club doesn't even believe there is a problem to fix.

And look at players these days ....deep scratches all over their arms and shoulders

I remember borrowing my uncles boots early 70s and feeling a pinch every time I ran

Yep nail had come through

Honestly thought you were younger than mid 70

Nah, he was a key position player and I was a rover.

Heard from a source that knows a few players that the senior players really don’t like nicks much . Have lost faith in him. The playing group is not as united as it was .

We need to rid ourselves of both nix and the senior players.

 

[CutAboveTheRest]

He'll probably become a one touch player at Collingwood and make us look like a silly

and probably win a flag

If Smithers was retiring would he have announced it already? I don't think we're losing any senior players (other than Sloane who was forced into retirement and we all know if it wasn't a medical call, he'd be wanting to play on).

Our senior players will always put up a fight when it comes to another contract

Only you and I would remember them

He played in the centre for North Adelaide so Barrie Robran had to be pushed out to a half forward flank
