If the agreement was that "you will be on time otherwise x happens and if it happens again, you get dropped" it might be just as clumsy to let him off the hook.
You just don't know.
He's off his feed at the moment and I just want him playing good footy. But we went through this with Jeffy and all you end up with is a player people are interested in but they don't have to pay fair value. Robbo, Eddie, Jeffy.
The only guy we shipped off and got good return was Fev, but you only get one M Voss in your footy life.
Fair point, and i dont know. But this is the time to fake an injury rather than issue a public statement that he was late to a team meeting. It humiliates the man and makes it harder to come back to the group. Given how fractured the group is right now, the management consultant in me says this is a high risk low return play.
We got smacked by 10 goals last week and the week before saw us smashed and lay only 35 tackles. Something tells me that a focus on the more important stuff might be the wiser path than demoting a player for rocking up a bit late to a meeting. Must be a few other players counting their lucky stars they got a senior game again.
Anyway, i am assuming a fair bit and dont know the whole story, but i dont like to see an individual hung out like that for a very minor infringement. Good to see Kruezer back, and maybe we can give it a shake. Go blues
