yep, we need someone to make a stand.

we need an asshole in our side, not to be dirty, but to let those around him know that if you miss with my team mates you are gonna cop it.

reckon anyone would touch murph if he went to the Lions and had Brown, Scott etc.. around him?

not a flower chance.

We need to stand up for ourselves more often, what Fev did against the Filth was spot on.

We also need our coaching staff coming out and supporting our players (like Roos does for hall, Riley did for Alvey)

none of the happens, and that is probably one of our biggest problems.

@#$%&! there are so many, and alot of it stems back to the coach.

he has to go .. now

Is it something bubbling away eating at the team, is it something not that noticeable almost in the background, or is it simply something in the coaches box?



You can't keep losing games week in and week out for years and expect players to play with confidence. They start out the game after a bit of a rev up and play like winners, but as soon as things start to go bad, the confidence gets shot and things capitulate very quickly.
There are only 3-4 players who have played in teams that expect to win rather than hope to, and they are shadows of what they were and I believe that they have forgotten what is was like.
This is where the attitude that PP will impove the team in the long term conflicts with the benifits of having the metal belief that you go out to win every game and feed on the confidence that come with feeling like winners.
The cycle of mental toughness goes with winning = confidence = arrogance = hunger = intensity = winning. Once you lose one part of the equation then the rest follows. The only way forward is to win games and accept nothing less, this is where the PP muddy the vision of the direction that the club should be heading
