Forgive me if I'm an eternal optimist. I think we'll sort ourselves out as a club. I get the acrimony and I feel it too. However, It's not unusual for clubs to got through turmoil. And it will happen again at other clubs. Sure a little different from what we're going through but not much, if at all. I will give the club credit; though, it has removed a lot of personal from the top to the players. so they're keen to get themselves in a better position. I would've preferred to have David Teague stay on with an improved assistant coaching list and be told that he is expected to improve his defensive skills. Then, if that hadn't been the case then we'd go for Alistair Clarkson. However again, it is what it is and we have no control over that except with our membership contributions. We could sign for an EGM but that doesn't seem to have come about, if I'm correct. I would be happy for that if it came about and go to the meetings and hear what everyone has to say and vote accordingly. I think we have to sit tight and wait for things to unfold. it's hard.
I think we should have let Teague see out his contact, actually support him, a novelty here, put good people around him and tell him to improve aspects of his coaching. Just for the fact Clarko and Buckley would have been around next year if Teague still struggled. That would have been a much easier way. Would have looked more creditable rather than a laughing stock. Now we a rummaging through the $2 bin just in the hope of finding the dregs that are left.
Hopefully the Pyke rumour is right, be a good get, otherwise it's a first timer because there is nothing else left.
