The whole club pumped him up as the messiah, prematurely. It was clear that after a honeymoon period, the players fell into their old roles which saw the previous coaches sacked. Hence my gripe with the players/culture.
Who didnt deserve to go?
Everyone who went IMO went to improve the culture of the club and lift the standards around the club.
Yarran and Henderson deserved to go IMO...but its obvious to most that Betts and Robbo leaving came back to bite us big time.....Waite and Garlett 50/50...Laidler too was a mistake IMO..can get a game in a finals team like the Swans but we have him playing VFL footy in the wrong position...think Mick actually suggested the Swans were the strongest list in 2014 and then he gave them Laidler.. go figure.
If your getting paid a mill a year then no matter where you stick your tongue or your foot you still have to deliver, you make comments like Mick made then you will be held accountable....
