Players not developing is a major concern & the coach is 100% accountable. Another massive concern there. Newnes has developed nicely. Bruce has been rather inconsistent however I'll give his development a tick. The rest have stalled or regressed. Seriously wtf?!Con Gorozidis wrote:I havent gone that far yet but he worries me. Whenever he talks it is usually banging on about certain player's personality . He seems obsessed with personality traits which are irrelevant. Or he is banging on about effort. He never mentions ball use. You see the Eagles lose and Adam Simpson goes on and on about poor ball use. Richo seems be in denial about the importance of ball use. He goes on on about effort, contested ball and the tackle count. None of these stats help you win games if you cant cant kick and cant handball it and turn it over all the time - even when under no pressure. This is the third year and we wouldnt get a single player in an AFL under 25 side - he should be embarrassed about this. Yet all he wants to talk about is what a great bloke Geary is off field. It is very annoying.Myron Gaines wrote:If I'm being completely honest, I lack faith in our coach. His selections are bewildering as is his match day coaching. He's a one trick pony. Old school coach that hasn't evolved with the game. Another Brendan McCarthy.
I'm looking forward to the 2016 B&F with Steven winning & Geary, Dempster, Armo, Fisher, Roo, Gilbert & Joey all featuring in the top 10. Obviously not a good sign...
