why have the players been poor though? i understand sharpy isnt the one out there missing the tackles or dropping the ball, but he is the one who is doing nothing about it...
and it was evident with the team selection... what do you do when your star 5/8 goes down with an injury? easy, replace him with a back rower coming off a shoulder reconstruction
Veteran players shouldnt be relying on coaches to make them perform better.
You even hear Gal say after injuries etc, i havent been training, ive played enough to know im right bla bla bla.
Same old story on our teams structure, thats been going on for years, but the problem with the players attitudes could be stemming from plenty of different avenues.
ASADA, i saw someone write, ASADA would only be affecting blokes if they had something to worry about. Thats ****ing bull****. These players are people. If you were accused of raping someone, but know you didnt, the accusation or speculation would still have a weight on you. Like Gal said, you get sledged, then you get called a drugo cheat infront of your infant children. How would some of these kids be? This goes beyond just the training or playing field. Their whole lives would be uncertain whether they have anything to worry about or not.
But thats only a partial excuse for a small number of our players.
Which is why our highest paid should stop being a baby and just start acting like a senior member of our team, he is 28 soon, and should be more confident in his game than he is.
Id rather an average ⅝ and a high quality half that will be doing the organising that can both kick and pass, than a great ⅝ that rids himself these responsibilities so he can just drift around looking for chances.
Carney thinks he and Robbo compliment each other, i think at times they cancel each other out. We need more than what Robbo can offer with the ball in his hand/on his foot if Carney is only going to play the role that he does
