Pink Mist Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Nigel Smart one of the last original 1991 Adelaide Crows plays his final game. Wearing his No. 7 guernsey he will complete 278 games today, a club record, unlikely to be broken for quite a while. Lets hope the junior crows can lift and give him a win against the Western Bulldogs at AAMI Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chonabot Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Fair play Bronco , he did a fair bit , and I have enjoyed the odd game of Aussie rules , a tough sport for sure. Nigel Smart No. 7 Date of birth 21/05/69 Height 187cm Weight 88kg AFL Debut 1991 Recruited from South Adelaide(SA) Career Games 225 Career Goals 107 The first Crow to reach 200 AFL games was chaired off the field after the club's best win of the season against Richmond in round 13. With Mark Bickley, he has been added to the veterans list for 2001. The only remaining player from Adelaide's first AFL team, Smart made his mark in the competition as a versatile, rebounding defender. Won three All-Australian jumpers in that role, but in recent years has also enjoyed success when moved on to a wing and can be a valuable forward line spark. A strong overhead mark, but also has great agility for a player of 188cm. Has stepped down as vice-captain. Player honors: 2nd best and fairest 1996; 3rd best and fairest 1991, 1998, 1999; AllAustralian 1991, 1993, 1998; premiership sides 1997, 1998. Brownlow Medal: 2000 votes (1); career votes (37).
