So much for Teague’s strident defence of McGovern as the decoy forward. A newby mistake and one that he should learn from.
Lance may be able to provide Mitch with an old tyre to drag around Princes Park.
Teague last week said he's been unable to to train much all year. You don't look that out of shape at an AFL club unless there is an issue. They'd never allow it.

He had no preseason due to stress fractures in his back which I doubt had full healed by round 1.

Fair enough but he must not be selected until he meets the required fitness standards and is on form. This must he a principle the team lives by unless there are extreme extenuating corcumstances in play. How close is Kerr? Maybe time to give him a run?

Much better way to win your players trust
Bolton’s gone. Get over it
Ohh my, Bolton's done it again!
If sMurph hadn't been captain, this would never have happened!
Our fitness staff are so poor, what we really need are the high performance team from the Dawks!

So why is Teagues fault?
Grow up and read the post again.
Don’t see why Teague cops it from DJC.
He is head coach, do you believe he should publicly ridicule him?
You’re another who can’t get over Bolton’s dismissal due to his failures

You get that you are again the one who brought Bolton into this thread.
You do it everywhere! You have the same handful of individuals you hate that you blame or associate for pretty much everything you see as wrong with the club! You are obsessed!
DJC did not mention Bolton!
DJC made a simple statement about Teague defending McGovern's poor game, in a public statement made in a post-match presser. Comments that Teague must now wear and as DJC stated it now appears as a rookie mistake. Teague cannot cherry pick what goes on his CV and what gets excluded, it's all public domain, it's all open for debate!
Re: Lance McGovern - cookie2 - 07-15-2019
Many coaches, not only DT, keep player issues close to their chest and try to work through them more privately first. I don't have a problem with that. Some things are better kept out of the spotlight while an internal resolution can be found. Enough of the soap operas.

FFS
The article is about McGovern.
As I said, do you expect Teague to throw him under the bus publicly.
All of a sudden DJC is criticising the coach.
It’s not a rookie mistake.
He is supporting his player publicly.

So why is his approach to training and fitness now being described as unprofessional? And why does he have to complete a specific training block before being considered for selection?
I get that the coach has to stand up for his players but it sounds like Mitch was being a decoy at training too. It’s not a good look for the coach to be saying one thing and the club to apparently contradict his message.
My main concern is how McGovern lost condition this far into the season. I would have expected Russell to pick up any fitness issues before they became a concern.
