2016 NAB Challenge Discussion

[The Adelaide Connection]

Re: 2016 NAB Challenge Discussion

It's almost got to the point where every premiership needs an asterix next to it denoting what variation of rules it was won under.
This years will be *90 rotations, no sub, extra jumpy sling rule.

No idea how this got posted here, was meant for another thread. Sorry. As you were.

I'm surprised they are persisting with some of the NAB challenge only rules. Does the supergoal serve any purpose?

I'm surprised it didn't somehow cost us a preseason premiership.

It does the junior clubs get some footy's sent to them.

Notice Darcy Macpherson got a game first up as a Rookie. Must be impressing up there, hope he goes well - just not too well.

Impressed with Darcy. Think he'll be a good player.

Most impressive debut (pre-season admittedly). Laid 10 tackles as a high pressure small forward and scored more AFL Dream Team points than anyone on his team.

Good start for Darcy then.

Re: 2016 NAB Challenge Discussion

Suprised he was drafted by Scott Clayton even just on a rookie list. He's not exactly a Clayton prototype given that he can actually play the game. Maybe they let somebody else select the rookies?

Has the fox commentary improved from that dross they served up Thursday night .
Not sure what was worse Tutt and Jones or the commentary

Re: 2016 NAB Challenge Discussion

Plough said at halftime Higgins had been BOG but that's all I heard, I don't even know what position he was playing in. A

I heard Wallace talking about how could we let Shaun get out, but for me he hasn't performed in the really high pressure games for Norf .
Talking Hawthorn,West Coast prelim , he didn't fire a shot

Higgins has always played well in finals. Last year in the finals, he had 28 disposals v Swans and 17 against WCoast plus two goals.

I thought he had a great year and showed he is a classy player.

Does Scott Clayton even make the call?

I thought he had a J-Mac (list manager) type role with GC??

I thought he was the recruiting manager but now that I think about it was an assumption on my part. You're probably right.

He has always been classy but still will not chase and a hard tackle from him is the exception rather than the rule. I'm glad he is gone more so than any player we have recently lost/traded.
