Re: Worst Leaders in the AFL! - LP - 04-13-2015
Murphy was pretty good in his latest presser, shows why he is a players choice!
Re: Worst Leaders in the AFL! - Baggers - 04-15-2015
When on-field leadership is faltering it is also worth asking if the playing group actually fully respects and trusts the leadership.
Re: Worst Leaders in the AFL! - LP - 04-15-2015
What continues to worry me is this;
We've heard rumors Murphy isn't right, he doesn't look right physically, we heard rumors Judd is sore as well, and other several rumors that certain blokes are borderline on the cut each week.
But when Murphy and Judd cop additional attention, the sort of attention that their status demands, as a playing group we don't seem to offer any assistance, almost nothing!
Since the arrival of Judd that is the way it has been, and that is the way it continues to be!

I will stick my neck out...
Taking judd has prevented the development of leaders just like gazza at gold coast
Murph gibbs are too soft now and fall into bad habits when the heat is on.

Rubbish.
Those two are soft irrespective of one C. Judd.

If what you postulate is true, then both Murph and Gibbs have questionable characters to begin with, and are probably not leadership material, irrespective of whether Judd came to the club or not.
The footage in the WCE game during one of the breaks, showing Judd giving the troops a rev up rather than Murph, is worrying. Yes, it's only a tiny snippet, and I don't know what happens in the thousands of hours we don't see, but it's a disturbing snippet.

Most people on here, and everywhere else that I've spoken to, acknowledge that neither Murph nor Gibbs has any mongrel or fire in the belly. They are both talented footy players of course and ones that any club could gain great benefits from having on its list, but not in the leadership area.
I have nothing personal against these two, it is their individual natures, that's how they are wired. I would love to be proved wrong on this, this week especially.

So our solution to balance this equation is to get rid of Robbo, knowing we had already lost Duigan!
It's mis-management, it is not Murphy or Gibbs problem!
I'm not pointing the finger at you, but there are posters on here who would have required Craig Bradley to be a battering ram!

I hear what you say LP and I agree with the principle of what you are saying - we do not seem remotely competent in terms of playing guys to their strengths, but are very good of putting them into places where they can be more easily embarrassed or smashed physically. It's been happening for a long time.
