The Adelaide Crows<\/a> are confident they can take down Collingwood<\/a> on the reigning premiers' own turf on Saturday, but training today proved they're leaving nothing to chance.\u00a0<\/p>\n

"We haven't selected the side as yet," he said.<\/p>\n

Nicks was adamant Curtin wasn't rushed into the side prematurely.<\/p>\n

\u00a0"No, not at all. I think it'd be one we look back on and say he'll benefit from playing at this level. As a key defender what we've seen is it takes a little bit longer to develop, but we've been really pleased," he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Josh Worrell has signed a two-year contract extension, just 48 hours after surgery on his broken arm.<\/p>\n
