I just watched the full presser from Voss.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Voss more pissed off than in his presser last night. Finally!!
He’s not only highlighted how the players let us down but gave the umpires a serve and the put the MRO on notice.
Well done Vossy. That’s what we need. Get into them all. Flower them.
Its a valid observation for sure. Whilst we should not remove Voss issues as our coach moving forward - I think the following from BlueVain in the match thread deserves a mention:
Quote:
The fact is Warner and Heeney took the game away from us. It wasn't White or Evans playing on them, And they didn't just have "their moments". They both made solid contributions where our midfielders had plenty of opportunities to limit their outcomes and couldn't/wouldn't do it.
In the first quarter where we had some clearance ascendancy, it wasn't due to our ground level mids. Of our 9 clearances for the quarter, 8 of them came from Pitto and Harry. It's a pattern that our mids drop off too much and it has a severely detrimental impact on our outcomes. Collingwood second half, Adelaide belting, Sydney loss.
Voss talked on the above during his presser after the game. I would agree we did not take our clearly multiple opportunities AND execute them as we should have - during multiple moments during the game against Sydney (and most others this season).
You cannot expect Voss to execute those things himself - that comes down to your cattle on the field.....
The query I have is he suggested they put some work into Heeney and/or Warner.... Not sure I saw much evidence of that after half time - or more importantly during the last quarter????
