I didn't watch much of the game - late 2nd qtr and some of the third. Sadly, learning a new accounting system was a better option (and this one is complicated for my little head)! I am surprised that we only lost by 6 goals (only looked it up now to see the margin)
I think the nature of the loss gets rid of some of the paper covering the cracks - we think we are OK because we're only losing by 4 goals every week, and if we keep persevering we'll get there eventually. We want eventually to be now.
I see us toil away for goals time and time again, just for the opposition to score easy ones. Yes, we look good when we have a run on, but that's once a game and we fade quickly.
We don't seem to play for each other and don't seem to be a great team. How do you build a team in a club that has had so much change that everyone is looking over their shoulder. To build a team, there must be a culture. Our culture is yoghurt. Something smelly and disgusting!
Brisbane has built culture, Richmond has built culture, North will be building culture, Sydney has one etc. We will languish until this is established. We know what happened to Fisher - finishing on 99 games. I don't think it is a great message to say that Murph is not guaranteed 300 games - will only get picked if worthy. Tells me that we aren't really looking after our players that well. Negative message that filters down the club. (I get that some don't like Murph, and are happy hearing that he may not get to 300) -
what about - we are working with Murph at the moment to help him get to 300 games - it will be a great achievement for him to get there.
ps how good was Toby's torp on half time - amazing kick.
