October 7, 20241 yr Given ANB has left the building, can someone tell me how I change my profile pic and name please?? Edited October 7, 20241 yr by ANB Fan Boy
October 7, 20241 yr Had him for first goal kicker in the GF, he missed... Now a crow... he is dead to me. Jokes. Thanks for everything Nibbler. Hope you play well and never beat Melbourne ever.
October 7, 20241 yr 4 minutes ago, RedFox said: The thing that annoys me with this trade is Adelaide managed to extract this pick from us for McAdam who has achieved 5% of what ANB has in his career. Think we need to get more ruthless in these negotiations, perhaps ANB is worth Pick 28 but I'll be stuffed in McAdam was. Yeah, it's looking pretty horrible, but I would caveat that at the time of making the McAdam trade, we and they would have been expecting our future 2nd round pick to be more like high 30s, and being a future pick it also necessarily has a somewhat lower value. Nibbler has a value that can't be measured in contract dollars or pick position. He is a big loss - I'll miss him in the red & blue terribly.

October 7, 20241 yr Definitely a player that has improved year on year since 2020, and is in career best form. Disappointing, but every club loses a best 22 player here and there. GWS have been smashed with Perryman, Cumming and possibly Peatling.
October 7, 20241 yr Let’s keep in mind pick 28 will equal the equivalent of pick 33 after father sons and academy picks. - He just finished 3rd in the B&F - Is an outstanding leader - Is an outstanding trainer and sets the standards - Plays the high half forward as good as any in the game - Has many years of good footy in him. - Has 2 years left on his contract. We have been push overs for years at the draft table. It’s close, but Pick 20-23 (pre f/s and academy) is where it should be at, not an eventual 33/34. Adelaide give us that, or we hold him to his contract. John Noble can’t get a regular game with Collingwood, and is a guy 20-25 on their list. Yet they will get pick 13 for him. Younger yes, not not as valuable in my view.

October 7, 20241 yr Gus is gone Now it’s farewell to NIBBLER Heart and soul player A Leader Best 22 each and every week Premiership player 🏆 tough call to only get “28” in exchange (effectively “33” after Academy and father son picks) … given finished 3rd in B&F and 2 years in contract to run…still he had decided to go and we supported this … no bargaining power 😭effectively same pick we have Crows for 29yo 50 gamer Mcadam 😭
October 7, 20241 yr Let's be honest He was average at best who did have a career best season in 2024 Before 2021 he was struggling

October 7, 20241 yr Good luck Alex we will certainly miss your team first actions in ‘25 and beyond. But unfortunately you are now one of the enemy so wish you well but not against the Dees. ❤️💙😁😁
October 7, 20241 yr Fair deal for ANB The Crows could have screwed us as he had to leave and named his club Big loss for us, especially at the moment

Younger yes, not not as valuable in my view. Further "slipping" is BS though because the F/S and Academy players that make that happen aren't freely available to us anyway so our position in the open draft remains the same. Yes the FA compensation for Battle, Perryman and Cumming did legitimately push the pick back 3 spots.
October 7, 20241 yr Sad to see him go, hard working, humble and a great addition for Adelaide. I will cheer him on next year.
October 7, 20241 yr Sheez . . . we're going to have a fair bit of salary cap space available with Nibbler, Kosi, Clayton, Trac and JV gone. We might be thinking of bringing in Nathan Ablett.

I never understand why people make a fuss of a pick being lower after academy picks etc. We will get exactly the same player at 33 as we would have got at 28 - the whole point of those picks is that we don’t have access to those players
October 7, 20241 yr Probably lost our fittest player today. ANB was a Blue Collar worker, but he went all day… will be missed big time….
