You say Kosi looks like he doesn't want to be there. You say he's earning a couple of hundred thousand bucks a year for no discernible effort.
But you then go on to say "I'm not saying Kosi is not trying"
The previous comments suggest that's exactly what you are saying!
Further more you are implying he IS aware of it.
Otherwise why would you add that comment?
Excuse For Kosi This Week? Surprise! Surprise!

And I'll start by putting it a different way. People who ARE supportive of Kosi take the view that he is trying as hard as anyone else in the team, but is being hampered by any number of factors. These factors include such things as the Gia invoked head injury, knocks to the head 2 weeks ago, numerous physical injuries, lack of a proper Pre season, general lack of form and maybe even the possibilty that the game has passed him by.
However you made the comment "If I was being paid a couple of hundred thousand bucks a year for no discernible effort, I'd be very happy".Â
Now you would only make that comment if you were implying that's how Kosi views things. That is, he's happy to take the big bucks for little effort.
And if that's the case then that is at odds with your other comment that you "don't know what's actually going on between his ears, so I can't say he's not trying".
I can't explain it any clearer unfortunately.

BS is backing up faster than a blocked drain.
It was an out and out sledge and anyone could see it for what it was.
Then he tries the "but I'm not saying he not trying"
Gutless effort from a gutless hypocrite who reckons he doesn't critisise players
the whole thread has been a turgid and tawdry expose of BS and his vapid smallmindness.
Thought he was smart in his little smear OP, but then was laid bare when the real reason for Kosi was another head injury.
At least kosi has an excuse, I dont know what the cowardly turd known as BS is

No one really knows how hard Kosi is trying, or how bad his injuries have been. No one can know what is happening between another person's ears (except in the case of John Georgiou- one massive monobrow
Although I've never heard Kosi mentioned in terms of being an elite trainer like Riewoldt, Hayes, Fisher, Siposs, Curren etc.

Please don't tell me that posters are basing their opinions of how players train on the 'public training sessions' that they witness?
In this day and age of 'micro managing' nearly everything about the players I have absolutely no doubt that no player enters the field on a 'public training day' without detailed instructions of what they're allowed/not allowed to do.
WHat we see is purely what the Club wants us to see.

this is a fan forum. if someone doesnt agree with something, they can post it here. we all get a say, but for you to call someone a "cowardly turd" for not agreeing with them is just stupid. this is an internet forum, and you are fighting with people on it. go get a life mate.joffaboy wrote:At least kosi has an excuse, I dont know what the cowardly turd known as BS is

good f****** lord
sometimes i really wonder why i bother coming to this joint and actually read every post in these threads
it seems its just a chest thumping exercise for some
a chance to bag each other and one upmanship
someone criticized a player
a player that hasnt been at his best because of hardly any preseason, ankle surgery, and previous injuries plus the new concussion.
so what?
well apparently that gives some posters the right to mock and abuse others in posts and try to belittle them.
f****** unreal
