To those who are saying 'it is so unlike Ross to get stuck into the players', well I'll give you this little tidbit.

Just prior to our cricket grand final this year our Captain Coach gave us a spray that would make Warney cower. We had won our semi final easily & he was a bit concerned that a few blokes were getting ahead of themselves. A usually mild mannered bloke that leads by example rather than through words, he exploded into a rage that brought us back into line.

As we were about to head onto the field for Day 1, he reiterated our season, our successes & his belief in the ability of our blokes as a team.

Result. We poleaxed the highly fancied opposition, knocked them over for 90 after they had made scores in excess of 250 every game. The pressure that we put those blokes under I have never seen in over 20 years of competitive cricket.

It's called player psychology. Whether it works for Ross... well we'll find out over the next month.

No.
Considering he is high up on almost all individual honours this year Reincarnated suggests not.

One poor game and its back to the reserves? Poor quality posting

If that is your logic then Jason Gram should be playing TAC Cup

No way. NDS is an easy scapegoat. He got beaten on the weekend hands-down, but so did 16 or 17 of our players.

you are kidding - if any coach thought players would duck the issue come game time they wouldn't be playing. and he'd bake them for their attitude!

I don't think the argument has been if the scolding was warranted, it's more about the OP stating the boys copped it again on Monday in a team meeting.

Reincarnated believes the oft-placid cuddly bear known as Rosco has quite the temper and would scare the be-jesus of out a mature aged male such as Reincarnated

Cheers davo, in the world of football it's better to only have a few insiders like yourself who will only give up something that either is neutral or positive for the club.
