You can apply academic explanations and excuses to satisfy your perspective, perfectly okay for you, perhaps, but not for many others. Each entitled to our opinions... but I'll stick with the self-evident facts/proof.Another knee jerk post. Fancy assuming I'm happy with mediocrity. Stupid thing to say. No I don't accept mediocrity, but I accept when a side up and coming that mediocrity will sometimes happen. Funny about that. You just keep working on it. Difference is I think with my head, not my frustrations.
We're 12th, just, that's a fact - bottom 6 seems our place. We're erratic and weak under pressure... evidence is ample. When opponents don't bring heat, we look a million bucks, when they do bring heat we fall apart - poor leadership, poor discipline, become a bunch of individuals. But we are very, very nice.
Let's just agree to disagree.
The side has improved out of sight from 12 months ago and you know it. That's our 2nd thrashing in 20 games. Had losses we shouldn't have frustratingly had but that's part of it right now. If we didn't have then we would literally have been sitting on top of the ladder before last night, but we're not because at our stage of development were are still inconsistent, often during the same game. That's the reason why we are 10-10 under Teague, not 13-7 or 14-6. That's the one step stopping us from becoming a top side and will take time. But, hey, because we copped a shocker last night we are suddenly no good. Games like last night show us what we need to take the next step.
You expect it to happen overnight and get the shits when it doesn't happen. I know it takes time. As I said, can't cope with the ups and downs of the journey you're following the wrong sport.
