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

[Scorpus]

Oh that’s right, what was that again? Something about kids and values or was that another time?

He said he had no plans to debut Dowling this year or something like that

Thank *** someone slapped him and probably made him do it.

That was when he ruled out playing the likes of Dowling 8-9 weeks into the year because he didn't plan on debuting them over the off-season.

 

[George Kramer]

Like seriously, what further proof does one need to finally understand the guy just isn’t cut out to be a senior coach.

 

[GreyCrow]

I'm just worried that any improvement will be brushed off as '' we said Nicks needed help , we got him help and look we were right ''

Actually I think a few here might have that in their script meetings for next year

Yep, we are seriously going down the Ken path without any finals, so we are worse.

When the club identifies they need someone else to be in charge of gameplan, execution, assistants and development, you’d hope they’d acknowledge that Nicks isn’t the man.

But if we don’t make finals next year he has to be gone.

I gave up listening to them after hearing his pathetic excuses for the loses early in the season. Just uncountable dribble.

It's funny because it's exactly what we were told Pyke said to junior players that were gunning it up in the 2s. He apparently told them they were going really well, but they're not going to get selected unless multiple injuries intervene. The same people just employ the same people, nothing has changed.

And said those calling for any of our reserves players to come in probably haven't been watching the SANFL games

And our SANFL players had to learn our values

Thoughts on Stewy Dew coaching again? coaching the Suns when he did was a big ask.... we all know he was sacked cos Dimma was waiting in the wings.
I don't like the idea of Nicks replacement being a untried new coach. Justin leppitch deserves another go and i think he will be better this time around. Would kill for Chris Scott

Games coached at one club in VFL/AFL history without every making the finals:

Alan Richardson - 126
Stuart Dew - 121
Matty Nicks - 106

Replacing #3 with #2 is just terrible optics.

Don't worry, Nicks will be 2nd by the time he's sacked, so replacing him with 3rd is an upgrade!!

So we cause Dew to drop from 2nd to 3rd so we then appoint Dew so he can become #1...
