Save me a seat.I too would rather be in Ireland than be at the Crows this week
Think there is a trade in progress or at least they have informed him they are open to it and both parties are letting it play out."The key backman returned to Ireland on Thursday for what Nicks said were personal reasons and will miss Adelaide's last game of the season, against Sydney on Saturday night.
Asked if the 24-year-old had walked out on the Crows, Nicks replied: "I can guarantee that is not the case."
Is that anything like saying the board has the full backing of the coach.![]()
I personally want him to stay. He will improve massively, and Collingwood know that. We will give a contracted player away for a packet of chips.Think there is a trade in progress or at least they have informed him they are open to it and both parties are letting it play out.
It won't be a packet of chips!I personally want him to stay. He will improve massively, and Collingwood know that. We will give a contracted player away for a packet of chips.
And we could just go with (personal reasons) which it states on the team sheet. Generally when a player misses for personal reasons it's almost always family based.
Will he 'quit' the club, go home to Ireland, tell us he's not returning, only to try to pop up again at a Melbourne club?
Bottom line is there is a clear stink at the club.
Thankfully, Silvers extensive review couldn't find any piles of dogshit, so the smell must be coming from somewhere else. All is good everyone
I think he's got more worth then you might realise. The KPD market has highly inflated this last 2 trade periods.I personally want him to stay. He will improve massively, and Collingwood know that. We will give a contracted player away for a packet of chips.
I rate his worth highly. I want him to stay. I just don't rate the AFC atm.I think he's got more worth then you might realise. The KPD market has highly inflated this last 2 trade periods.
Both in trade capital and salary.
He didn't walk out, he ran."The key backman returned to Ireland on Thursday for what Nicks said were personal reasons and will miss Adelaide's last game of the season, against Sydney on Saturday night.

I’m a huge wrap for what he could become and don’t want any of our defenders traded.I personally want him to stay. He will improve massively, and Collingwood know that. We will give a contracted player away for a packet of chips.
Reckon Keane is the type of guy that wouldn't put up with any bullshit.
It certainly looks odd in that there was literally no comment or statement even provided by Keane..
It also makes no sense that he’s ’walked out’ because he has a year left on his contract, we’ve put one in front of him, and he’s publicly come out and said his preference is to stay here. By all reports the contract we put in front of him was 3-4 years.
The only scenarios I can think of is either:
A) there is a family reason and we’ve let him head back early. If this was the case you’d expect the player themselves to release something and be like ‘hey Crows fans, heading back to Ireland to attend to some family stuff, can’t wait to be back… blah blah’
B) we have an in principle agreement to trade him elsewhere and have just released him to get a game into someone else…
C) some sort of fractious event has happened and he HAS up and left, which is a terrible move for his own career

Nah, you’ve got it wrong ….. I’ve never seen a more relaxed coach after a Showdown lossWhat we’ve got now is no different to the debacle that was our handling of the camp. Wheeling out club mouthpiece players to publicly gaslight a different group. Make no mistake, players would be aligned with Josh on this. The ‘Mr nice guy’ culture was always going to turn to shit when Nix felt pressure on his security. Blame is being apportioned, just like we did under the Pyke and Burton regime. It won’t end well.
'Whats in that box?'Awesome film, one of my favourites. Murphy was brilliant.
Problem is, he lied about why Rachele was dropped..."The key backman returned to Ireland on Thursday for what Nicks said were personal reasons and will miss Adelaide's last game of the season, against Sydney on Saturday night.

Have you seen the price of chips lately though? Might be market value.I personally want him to stay. He will improve massively, and Collingwood know that. We will give a contracted player away for a packet of chips.

He’s secure & knows it ….. pick #4 protected …. hopefully a couple of incoming players via trades
Where’s my sunglasses
Didn't look like that in the footage from yesterday's training seession joking and laughing with Matt Crouch as they came off the ground following the session....far from it. If he was outta there why would he even have trained?He’s just told them he has no interest in signing an extension and wants to be traded. We’ve said, ‘fair enough, we’ll get another game into Borlase, you can play 2s this weekend’. He’s just said no to that, I’ll head to holidays now thanks.

Totally disagree with the “we’re not a good club”Of course he’s secure, he was extended only a few months ago. I didn’t post he wasn’t and I have no doubt that he believes he’s going an amazing job. That doesn’t mean that Rome isn’t burning underneath him, as it was under Pyke and Burton. Those two were pretty chuffed with themselves too.
But Nix is definitely safe for a fair while yet. We’re not a good club, we make numerous bad decisions.
LOL, are you seriously thinking a bottom 4 finish 5 years into a rebuild is the stuff of contentment...I can tell you for a fact that plenty of crows supporters I know and are members barely rocked up to games this year they were that unhappy with how the side is performing and that the club didn't read the room and moved on a new coachTotally disagree with the “we’re not a good club”
This board provides an outlet for the minority to agitate …. it’s not representative of the supporter base
I do think most would be dismayed with the rachele / laird events of the last few days …. but historically we get more things right than wrong …. and no club is perfect
Look at MELB with Petracca & Oliver
St Kilda with their list …. GC being GC. after a history of excessive top Draft selections & a dream fixture, only to fail
People on this board continuously bemoaned that we had never truly bottomed out for top Draft picks ….. and then when we do, complain about not making finals
