Harf re-appointed

[kruddler]

Yes, there’s a lot of gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands from those who see Harf as the reason we lost or are losing Davey, Harris, the twins, Prespakis and Gee and don’t really look at the big picture.

Yep, i got banned from the facebook cheersquad group because i was praising Halford and suggested that we're better off with a couple players leaving who are not focussed on team success rather than having someone who can keep a group together with no success.

All i heard was that he can't coach and that he took a team who made the grand final to a side not making finals.
Pointing out that he took a team that finished dead last to making a grand final in the first place didn't seem to compute with them.
Nor the fact he was voted AFLCA AFLW coach of the year in 2019 seemed to make any difference.

Cheersquad members are too close to the players and see their favourites sooking about the big bad coach and sympathise with the players, rather than looking at the big picture.

I asked a question of Half via podcast about his 'unconditionals' as a coach asking of his players.
I think the answer was commitment and effort.
That backs up what i already thought. If you don't put the team first and are not committed to the club, see ya later.
Look at the players who have left (and been any good) and you'll see either a lack of commitment or effort or both, from all of them.

Davey...look at me. Wanted out when she was captain. GTFO!
Hoskings....clearly thought the grass was greener elsewhere...how is that working out for them?
Dalton.....wanted to play rugby as a priority.....bye.
Harris....too busy worrying about boxing and being insta-famous......Thanks but no thanks.
Clearly Prespakis' had the bombers connection (maybe Gee too, but at least had connection to Prespakis) so there would've been a call, if you can't be fully committed here, then go now.

Eventually we'll be left with a squad of girls who are fully committed to the cause and want to be here and thats when we'll have success.
