Nicks says Crows won’t tag Serong, but they have ‘Plan B’
By Mitchell Woodcock
Adelaide coach Matthew Nicks has flagged that they won’t start with a tag on Fremantle superstar Caleb Serong, but says they have a “Plan B” ready to go should he get off the leash.
The Dockers vice-captain was restricted to 16 disposals in round two under heavy attention from Melbourne’s Koltyn Tholstrup, as rival teams continue to attempt to lock down the three-time All-Australian.
Serong responded with a near best-on-ground performance in the win against Richmond on Saturday, gathering 32 disposals, nine clearances, eight inside 50s, six tackles and two goals.
