Sure, its not ideal that their might be some in-fighting, but there was some in-fighting at Geelong when Gary Ablett Jnr was first there. The playing group told him to pull his finger out....the rest is history.

Grief with other players is fine, flat out not wanting to be there is a bit more of an issue.

We need to get a grip, Collingwood played well and kicked as straight as it's possible to kick and we lost by 4 goals, Matty Wright played his worst game for the club, we had a couple of kids playing their first few games and we lost Marchbank before half time.
Losing sucks but it's only round three, we'll come good sooner rather than later.
I haven't seen any signs of disharmony in the playing group and I take no notice of rumours.

After I realised the sun came up yesterday and today again, I decided I'll take a chill pill and relax. Not suggesting Im happy with the results, nor am I suggesting the players should be happy either. Rather, I gonna wait a week and see if the players can redeem some respect and atone for the 3 losses. Lots of factors at play here, its not as simple as we think.

Well I am trying to relax and to just hang on to some hope that our rebuild will deliver the goods in two or three years. I have no expectations for this game and I'll just watch it on AFL Live in miniature and try to be a mere impartial observer.

Yeah, and we conceded 10 goals in a row without even a whimper....

Last weekend was about as disappointing and irritating as it can get. However: we had more scoring shots; we played poorly for much of the game and lost by 4 goals; our team structure isn't there yet and we have guys returning soon.
We have a chance this weekend to show something. I hope we can do it.

We are 0-3 and dead last, there have been no positives in the last 2 weeks.

For me it's not about losing to Collingwood or even if we lose to CheatsFC, it the way we conduct ourselves on the field.
I suspect we are playing a more attacking brand because of media pressure, all this 100pt rubbish, but we were closer to wins last season. We regularly scored in the 80 - 90pt range and lost by less than 3 goals, improve on last year by just by 2 or 3 goals and we win 9 or 10 games. The 100pt stuff is irrelevant!
I'm full of admiration for the Crows, they've stuck at their game plan and rubbished the trends and look solid as concrete so far.
