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

[Kane McGoodwin]

Roo is a closet Power supporter.

No, he is just a really poor football administrator...

& shit commentator.

Any credit he had for bulldozing his way into Walshy's eyeline went a long time ago

I would be hoping for a sh*t Friday for them

Obviously 119 is a Port supporter wanting a Happy Friday

I'm looking forward to seeing the fixture for 2025

Nicks is staying, so the first 12 weeks are going to be key.

I hope between now and pre- season we get a fair bit of good news

I knew he was staying the moment he survived the Richmond debacle.

Once he survived that, it was pretty obvious that he wasn't going anywhere.

have to admit, i was hoping on some sort of completely out of character (apart from Sanderson) post season sacking.

thats why I'll be interested in the Fixture and what we are bringing into to assist Nicks.

I'm still buying my Kayo through the GC though

They werent sacking him 10 weeks after signing him.

But I wonder whether that was around the time whether the powers that be said "Oh faaark"

So you would expect we get the double ups as follows:-

Port plus one of Sydney, Brisbane, Geelong, Hawthorn and GWS
Two of Western Bulldogs, Carlton, Fremantle, Collingwood, Essendon and St Kilda
Two of Gold Coast, Melbourne, West Coast, North Melbourne and Richmond.

We could get only one of the top 6 (Port) and get three of the either the middle 6 or bottom 6. Unlikely but possible.

The fact we finished in the bottom 6 means Port will probably only play one other of the bottom 6.

And whats the bet Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon all play each other twice.

I want people to rate the fixture before we start playing this time

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Nicks can only be sacked if we don't have a single injury to the squad for the whole season and still do badly

If we dont have injuries there really is no excuse but to be knocking on the door of the 8, if not in the bottom end of it.

I want people to rate the fixture before we start playing this time

Fixture ratings are a complete waste of time ....everyone thought COLL would be a tough fixture matchup ....no-one knows who's on the up or slide

More important are the number of 5, 6 day breaks .....interwoven with interstate trips

I think cleaning out our dud assistants is important too. However, keep in mind that when you have a strong senior coach, their influence is greater than, or could even compensate for, crap assistants. A weak senior coach like Nicks further exposes weak assistants and could be influenced by them and their stupid ideas.
