Just noise. Yeah, we're terrible at the moment. The media try hards banging on about it is irrelevant.

It's up to the coach and players to fix this slump.

Thing that stood out for me was Lloyd saying that it looked like a team playing at a coaches funeral game…I mean, playing like they know the coach is about to be sacked and so they are playing safe. (I don’t even make the leap to realise players do that sort of thing when the coach is going down)…

We just saw North having a red hot crack at beating Collingwood prior to the coach getting chopped, so I don’t know how much Lloyd is making it all up for ‘an angle’ and for his own brand…I tend to think he is rather on the opposite end of the spectrum whilst characters like Hutchy and Cornes tend to say more outlandish things.

Must say, it shocked me, and I’d reckon a few of us must have had the hair on the back of our necks pricked up by his observation/conjecture.

Two f****** blokes I wouldn't talk to even if the three of us were stranded alone on a desert island, so thanks but no thanks. I won't be listening to those creeps, Barret especially. At least Harry Highpants played the game.

Do you think that players play conservatively when they sense their coach is going down? And why would that be so?

(Please don’t bother commenting if you think the the question isn’t worth answering)

Yes
As I've said a squillion times when the saints are winning we rarely get a mention , soon as we lose a couple we're the journos favourite whipping boy.
Lloyd with his monotonous drone is boring as batshit . Every week he's either jacking off over how good the bummers are or he's tearing strip's off them.
