Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 2) - Full Support of the Board

[1970crow]

From what I've heard, our fitness was disgraceful as there was no drive or accountability to train or stay fit during the covid break. That plus not being able to train together with a new game plan meant we were just a rabble, it took 13 games to reach adequate levels again

That's 100% on the coach though.

He's a product of Norwood.

Only few experienced and the rest wish for

 

[cleanhands]

Yep, I retract my statements the other day that they havent given us anything.

Its the single greatest influence of any SANFL club.

Yep we all love Tex

Shouldnt have played a single game in the sanfl. Who sent him there?

He was a plant, it's not a new or Port's license they're after, it's ours.

Good broken hill lad.

 

[King Elvis]

You dont know what goes on behind the 4 walls

You dont know if you have never played at the highest level

As you say, it's such a pissweak statement.

We don't NEED to know what goes on behind the 4 walls - the results are what matters.

Pick the most expendable person and hang them out to dry.

Coward is very strong language to say about someone that you have zero personal connection with and just coaches a footy team.

Blames anything but himself. Refuses to admit he's finished. He's a coward mate.

What a leader does is take responsibility and accountability himself.

Not sure Nicks has those qualities.

Sounds like tim silvers and the entire board. Keep digging a deeper hole rather than admit they f'ed up.

Interesting reading - just as a number of us has shown.

Champion Data stats so I await one of the posters on here to question the data.

That's 100% on the coach though.

And the captain, Sloane had responsibilities to step up with a new coach onboard.

He failed miserably.

Doesn't help when 33% of the season was dump kicks game plan, Rankine was probably ranked very low until round 5.

Yep
And if we knew what went on we'd likely think worse of the club, that's why they won't be releasing any results from the review

 

[jackster83]

Yep

If only we could get a transcript of what goes on.

Silvers currently canvassing who is happy to take a payout to be the fall guy...

 

[CrowBloke]

Who's the video clip WIZARD in here, please?

On The Front Bar tonight they showed a clip of Nicks talking about how he has (and loves having) the full support of the Club, cut back to The Front Bar blokes all saying:
"GOOOONE" and waving goodbye.

Can our BF Video Wizard put that in here, please?

Silvers didn’t appear to be to happy with the line of questions

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Is anyone at AFC happy to be accountable?

 

[cleanhands]

Struck me as arrogance

 

[SugarShane]

Silvers didn’t appear to be to happy with the line of questions

Probably just shitty that none of the other board members told him about the "pretend to be on a phone call" trick.

 

[BACCS]

Struck me as arrogance

Or panic, probably both
