Where do people lay blame for insipid performances like today and the NM game? We all know the saying that one of the things you can control is your effort. Why in those two games has ours been so far off the mark? IMO blame should go much more to the players than the coaching staff - as a professional athlete you shouldn't need someone ranting and raving at you each week to get you going, and it's simply not sustainable to expect someone to do that weekly for a group of 22 adults. I just struggle to see how we can show so much promise and desire one week and the next week be witches hats. Anyway I'm interested in peoples thoughts on this, from the sugar coaters who put it down to the inconsistencies of youth to the misery guts who think every action (or non-action) a player takes on the field is exactly what they've been caoched to do.
We are not that good.
Some sides don't take us seriously and just put the pedal to the metal when they have to.
NM and GWS had both copped a pasting in the press all week so they both had a point to prove.
They were on from the outset.
As I posted once before its like a dad playing his boy at table tennis he doesn't try that hard until he has too allows the kid to get to 19 all then promptly wins the last 2 points. But some dad's like to teach their kids a lesson and belt them from the first serve that's what we got today.
We are really bad and all these 1st round draft picks are going to be a waste.
But hell I love you guys
