Come out and say he's being dropped on form and form alone, if it's this then Nicks does the presser as he can respond to the questions that follow.
Come out and say the leaders have spoken to him about his behavior on and off field and it hasn't sunk in, if it's this then Dawson does the presser as he can respond to the questions that follow.
Anything other than full disclosure and the theories can run riot. They have to be transparent either way. What's the bet they roll out Hombsch or Burns and offer neither?

They don't have to be transparent and won't. The statement from Adam Kelly shows that
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!
No matter what statement the Crows provide or not provide its undeniable Rachele is 'pissing' a few off at the club.
-Coaches drop him (probably performance based) -An experienced teammate comes out and talks about it not aligning with the way the club wants to play football
Those two things say more than enough. You don't often see teammates coming out and giving one their own a little slap on the wrist in the media, most of the time what they say is only an tenth of what they really feel, its always softened down for media purposes. If Laird is saying that to the media you can only imagine what his saying behind closed doors with other teammates.
The next step is what character Rachele has, does he take the hard road and some how try and find a balance and earn his spot back in the side. Or does he take the easy road and hate everything about Adelaide/SA and look for a trade back home.

Being dropped isn't because of performance. The experienced teammate plays like a robot and has personality of a dead scarecrow.
Says more about player management and coaching. If what he said doesn't align with the club, then clearly the club did a poor job in detailing what they want from the squad.

Don't disagree with what you're saying just making the point that either way they spin it Rachele has pissed of people at the club (rightly or wrongly). Where the blame lies we can speculate all day.

I don't pay enough attention to what role he plays but he's played in every game and scored in all but 4 of them, not the most useless going around.
I've said previously, the lad has talent to burn, he just needs to grow a pair and keep the pie hole shut until he has.
I don’t think he’s growing a pair anytime soon. It’s how he plays and I think the crows need to accept that.
Why do the crows continue to put him in front of the media’s or allow him to have media roles if they don’t like him being outspoken or making silly comments.
He’s a young lad he’ll learn……… whether that’s during or after his afl career?
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.
We only see about 5% of his output at the footy club, I suspect they have had issues with him all year and it came to a head last weekend, by dropping him it is the last attempt to get him to straighten himself up so he returns to the club in pre-season with a new selfless attitude.
This could go the other way with a trade request out.
I'm right off Laird and more behind Rachele than I've ever been before. So if they're trying to galvanise a group or supporter base, they've gone down the wrong road IMO.

Dan Houston owes him a beer.
Yep this. What we are seeing in the media directly from the club and its players would be the most diluted version of what's gone on within the four walls.
If it's a media led story then its probably 10 x exaggerated, if its a club led negative story its 10 x diluted.

Support the player not hang him out to dry. I can see him requesting a trade over summer. Trade him to the Blues as we need a small forward like him.

If this is the end result of a number of failings on Rachele behalf, what are the leaders at the club doing? They all carry some responsibility.
I think he's goneski. And Nick's will be gone in 12months

Salary dump
Rachele + Crows Second
For Carltons 1st
Crows continue to pay 1/5 of his salary and it’s a deal
