Agree, footy is an emotion-charged game (or should be IMO) and players need to get fired up at the critical times for a team to achieve ultimate success. I don't believe it can always be played in cold blood - the adrenaline has to flow freely when the circumstances call for it.
A good coach needs then to be capable of connecting strongly at the emotional level as well as at the cerebral.

Reality always wins in the end.
