Daicos did his ankle in the VFL.
Yeah that will happen when you don't get selected ahead of coaches pet Blair.

You know that the team with all of the great kpp that you mention couldn't beat us so we are not as far off as you suggest.
Hard to say how far off we are - all I observed was despite their gallant efforts today, our current kpp's were not physically strong enough to keep those blokes quiet. We need bigger kp cattle at the draft - that should be obvious now.
It is you that clearly don't watch much footy or know what your talking about. Adelaide are top of the ladder for a reason and have opened up just about every other team in the comp this year. Their average winning margin is 60 points. Yes they opened us up but we did likewise to them. We will improve our list this next trade period and be better for it next year.
Dude, I watch PLENTY of games of football. Was at the BFL today. Adelaide aeee missing Betts, Lever, Crouch, had Sloane tagged out of the game, and were playing in Melb.
To lead. Y 50? Beautiful. To not know how to hold a 50 point lead? Absolutely horrible. Defenders not punching (leaping for marks), Langdon not hitting the boundary, Blair trying to fend off tackles every possession, no front and centre other than Wells, no defensive set ups after behinds??? You want me to go on??? DeirZbld second half.
Guess you weren't around for the 1970 GF when we led by around 8 goals and dropped it, dunno how the hell you woulda handled THAT day, as I had to, some of you peahearts wanna HTFU, unless you have experienced the GF losses of 70 77 and 79, you don't know what REAL football heartbreak is !!
This game is about two things; how well we played in the first half, and how well the Crows played in the second.
In the end it was very disappointing that we couldn't spoil one of two marks, and that the maggot didn't pay the clear dropping the ball against 44 on our hff, but seriously our brand of footy isn't too bad for periods of the game.

That's true - unfortunately the team yet again simply couldn't stop the opposition's run of goals. A number of them were their good play but many seemed to be caused by our boys just not knowing what to do.

Nope. My dad was though.
Well, he would back up what I said for sure.

And who's fault is that? Did Adelaide have more players on the fields than us when they sliced us through the middle?

When we were flying in the first half, it was all about the players playing for our genius coach, but the second half its all about excuses.
Lemmings.
He has to go, and he will. 4 weeks to go and counting.
I hold a cup of wisdom, but there is nothing within.
Blair is a liability. Has been dropped 4 times. That's affirmation that he's not up to it. Yet gets brought back in time and again because he plays alright in an inferior competition. Great coaching.
Really, really disappointed with posters on Nicks. No real reason for all the vitriol. We didn't win, we should have, but no reason to be so agressively rude.
This disgraceful effort is worse than soldiers deserting their post during the Boer War! Blowing a 50 point lead ! Oh golly gosh! Putrid vile treasonous retreat. You don't win wars or games with that crap.
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.
