Opinion Matthew Nicks: Adelaide's Coach (Part 3) - The Biggest Loser

[Mr_Moogle]

I guess the Adelaide Football club are bunch of numpties too?

The onus is on them to prove they aren't.

You mention I’m not original so new. Then I correct you. Then you say it doesn’t matter but mention you have been here longer along with some weird justification implying that I may have changed username a couple of times so hiding something. You’re the winner man. Take the prize.

You were the one who bagged another poster because you were on BF longer like it gives you more credibility.... when posting quality has nothing to do with the time you joined BF!

If you want to be genuine, let us know what username(s) you previously went by.

Why did you feel the need to change usernames? Why hide from your posting history?

clearly its a current suspended posters account, or someone who switches between two or three accounts. Who else writes this way.

**** sake. The other poster implied I was new. I mentioned I wasn’t in comparison to them.

It’s like being on trial in here.

I think that’s it. One is a username I like the others are favourite players at the time. T.Edwards and then VB now Thilthorpe.

Hope that checks out for you lot. What evidence would the court like to prove it? Man this is hard work.

Haha who would write like that? Someone that disagrees with you!

Switches accounts? multiple accounts?Who would bother?

[MsTopG]

Ok I get the whole professional development thing but why wasn't this done when our season was over during the finals? Why now during pre season when he should be here to lead the group?

Should have been done when he was appointed. Complete waste of money and will only benefit another club when we sack him and he's appointed as an assistant elsewhere. That's if any club will take him which is debatable.

 

[Pugsley]

He deserves a Harvard scholarship! For 8 years!!

Space cadet scholarship.

As you may have noticed there's a heap of perma haters in here. They pretend to be all data driven and unbiased but they're full of it. Best thing to do is just ignore them and let them echo chamber in their little club. There's a fair swag of us who disagree with them but we all have lives so you won't see as much from us as you do from them. Welcome aboard.

Wasn’t it you who posted recently that if you just take off our two oldest players we drop back down to one of the youngest teams?
Conveniently ignoring what happens if you do the same for all teams?
You are the king of cherry picking.

Haters? In case you haven’t been reading the last few years the majority of posters are not a fan of nicks for obvious reasons.
Theres pretty much Wayne and this other bloke left now that disagree.

 

[Milo Cyrus]

Nicks can't make a better winning % than Robert Shaw, he's our second longest serving coach

How is this even possible?

Most of us are haters of perennially missing finals & losing most games.

Since when has it been unreasonable to expect your club to have a winning culture?

Says more about those who are happy to accept mediocrity which i never have been able to sit back & accept.

If you watch a team have a long period of no success, it's just normal to come to the conclusion that they don't know how to succeed. Don't need a database for that. Just a functioning brain.

I couldn't see the post you quoted. It is so much more peaceful.

The amusing part of this is you’re the one who is data driven who spends considerable time creating spreadsheets and datasets to try and prove points that fall flat. Gees imagine if you didn’t have a life like us what you could come up with.

He didn’t really did he?

Carmo say it ain’t so, I rely on your data, I’d hate it if I’ve been fooled this whole time

So it's just a coincidence that those that have lives tend to have more free time when the Crows win?

I wouldn't go that far. Ignore function ends up annoying the user more than the person being ignored. Also someone needs to be here to tell them they're in a cult.

Goddam right about that!

Was reported on channel 7.

Won't be at the club til players return in the new year.

Club doing him a solid. Meaningless Harvard courses are exactly the kind of thing middle managers put on their LinkedIn when looking for a new job.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Is going to Harvard going to teach Nicks:

A) How to structure to not concede from opposition kick ins?
B) Maximise our scoring opportunities from our kick ins?

He's been in charge five years now and we're still crap at both!

Likely effects are:

1. Harvard makes some money off its reputation

2. Nicks gets some new cliches for his pressers

Main risk is that Nicks gets a little extra confidence in his own judgement, because he’s a Harvard man now.
