I thought players were 100% fit when they crossed that white line???

that's two years running we have started the season under Mick half asleep....

hopefully turn it around next week against the tigers

All I am saying is old Book Tours picked underdone players. In the last ten minutes of the game he realised he was not going to get the win because of this. It was obvious to everyone we were cooked.
So he used the last 10 minutes to push the underdone players in a bid to get them match hardened. That is why the interchange count was down in the last.

Nothing to do with where teams trained in the preseason or the classic "once crossed the white line" line.

Think you might be onto something club29.

Maybe.

I did use the standard TC posting techniques of starting the discussion with a possible theory and by the end of it stating the same idea as fact. :lol:

Just let that wash over you for a a minute or two.

At least he was prepared to take the responsibility for the shot
Unlike the gutless captain

Gutless?

You should go down to the club and jump in the boxing ring with him. I'm sure you could show him who's boss. :lol:

Again.. Port didnt just change their coach.
I seriously dont get the fixation with trying to compare us with Port on the back of coaching change.
they changed everybody... !!! Not just the coach...

True. They took Alan Richardson, made him senior assistant and they raved about his influence.
Even better, we paid his wages for them!
Philanthropy. It's in our DNA.

The great decisions just keep on coming. We never cease to amaze.

The flip side of that argument, is "why wasn't Alan Richardson able to have much effect at the Blues"

Surely it couldn't be the players or our leadership group...

Mr Synbad will have us believe that Alan Richardson was PROHIBITED from blossoming and being effective because of Sticks

Then we may as well ask "What are you waiting for Mick? Get a move on - weave your magic"

Season is shot. For anyone who wants to dispute it, I'll happily debate it late August.
Just a gut feel...a very, very strong gut feel
2 shithouse ruckman who wont kick 15 goals between them all year
Thread bare lazy midfield made up of battling rookies and underperforming #1s (and a cripple from Coll)
One decent KPP (Hendo), maybe two (Jamo)
Benign forward line
Embarrasing backline

Look on the bright side. You now have 6 months all to yourself to do whatever you want with the family. :thumbsup:

Regards Cazzesman

And I have you and your clown mates, masquerading as the recruiting dept of a professional football club to thank.
I'm surprised you'll even recognise the side most weeks Cazz, given that most of the players your team recruited have either been delisted or are running around Cramer St

Pro: We have to make at least one change .... try someone new seeing that Walker is out

Con: Walker - WTF were you thinking?

As for Walker - Might be time to head back up forward when he returns. Fairly introverted lot up there and the only guy who used to put pressure on defenders is now 800km away.

What do you recommend?
"The Deflection" or "Sidetracked Again"
Maybe the animation, "The Incompetentables"

Wholesome family fun.
