Just a further comment on that players meeting.
As I said previously, aside from Cripps Simmo and Ed C the rest either lack foot and hand skills, decision making ability, or like Charlie C move in and out of the game, or totally lack the ability to stick a tackle. Walsh will be a star and hopefully will keep playing for our club. Fisher is a waste of space who always, if he gets the ball wants to hand it off and won’t kick. None of them will take responsibility for having a shot at goal even if they are 25 metres out.
Do you had this what are effectively aside from a few, a rabble, yelling at each other and telling a few home truths.
Well, we all saw the result. No improvement.
For those who say we were in the game, let’s be intellectually honest.
How much do you think Geelong would have slaughtered us by if we had played them yesterday performing the same way we did against the Saints.
I defy any player including the captain to provide me with a simple two minute video which clearly and concisely explains precisely what game plan they are supposed to be implementing.
I am prepared to forgive a lot. I went through this sort of drought during the 1950’s and 60’s until Barrasi took us to the top.
So I have been there before.
We have The nucleus of a decent side. Give them a game plan they can follow, hone their skills, and for God’s sake teach them how to
tackle, and above all provide them with a coach who has at least a proven track record, Scott took the kangas to two preliminary finals with a good ordinary team as jack dyer would have called them, and we might actually progress.
