For the 22 picked, again, there will be no excuses. There has to be a much better effort and performance this week.

@DJC, all the best to you and your boys this week!!

Yeah. Harry was the only one that made any sort of a statement last week, and that was only in a practice match.

But as you say Amers, there will need to be some improvements  this week.

David Parkins theory is a good one though. History has proved that over the years.
I spent most of my money on Women and grog.
The rest I just wasted.

Is it a miracle?

Love to hear your thoughts! :Smile

I have no doubt many blokes are on 'last warnings'!

But all in all, it's about hunger and effort - that's not a function of age or experience - but attitude.

That's where CFC has been soft for a long, long time now.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

Cheers!

The boys and their dad are featured in the Torquay paper this week, promoting the start of Auskick.  My son in law is the co-ordination.

I'm looking forward to watching them but I will also be very interested to see how our form and effort compares to the JLT game.

Scanning through the stats, I noticed Charlie Curnow is now listed as 194cm.  Wasn't he 191cm last year?

It's interesting that we saw no changes this week and I was just thinking that maybe the MC are not giving players what could be seen as an easy out by dropping them. Players dropped after one game could argue that they just had an off game and look forward to re-selection after a couple of good and redeeming performances in the NBs.

However, if they get two or three chances to perform well in the seniors but still fail, then they would have to work much harder in the NBs to convince the the club that they are worth hanging on to. In other words, this could be a way of really sorting the sheep from the goats?

I see, there is no "I" in team! Wink

The media a forking morons, how Bolton doesn't end up delivering some MM style replies is beyond me. Every press conference is the same, Dale Thomas form, Bryce Gibbs trade, Jacob Weitering forward, Matthew Kreuzer work rate, how good are the Dawks don't you wish you were still there, rinse and repeat.

I'd would be nice to hear something different for a change, but they are mostly moronic repetitive questions that get the same answer.

Right at the end, Bolts ignores the questions and gives them some real insight. It could have happened 10mins earlier if they had half a brain between them!
