Only the ones without patience ryan.
As for the players losing faith in themselves, do you know this or are you guessing?
Fair point Brad.,....
But i'll answer you with a question? Does it look like the players have any faith in themselves?
And in regards to Paitence? Mine tends to run a little thin after 5 years of crap!
I think most of the players have faith in themselves and their teammates in general.
Some realise they can't kick well and look to handball, Wiggins and Bannister in particular, but I'm not worried about them.
The players I do care about all have faith in themselves still. Simpson, Murphy, Walker, Gibbs, Fisher, Waite, Carrazzo are all very confident. A few wins would do wonders, hopefully that will come next season.
The biggest concern would be Kennedy, but as many have said he's only 19 and he dominates at VFL level so it should be a matter of time until he can put it together at AFL level.
We're so bereft of leadership out there the young guys are like a ship without a rudder. The ship will turn around once they learn to steer it themselves. They need their 50-60 games before they can do that.
Scotland, Lappin, Houlihan etc aren't going to be much help to them in that regard.
As reluctant as we are to go back down the re-tread path we need to consider trading for a couple of guys to help them out.
