All new coaches these days are very good at talking the talk. Neeld and McCartney have been equally impressive in their focus and their vision for their respective sides. Watters has been very good at this too, and maybe what has made it more pronounced is that the club had felt quite jaded last year after the accumulated heartbreak and off-field shenanigans.joffaboy wrote:Cant see the Demons or Doggies supporters moaning about how s.hit their new coach is at this point of time either, so yes you are correct P66.plugger66 wrote: I reckon every clubs footy forums would be saying exactly the same thing.

I am equally sure that Freo supporters would be pretty expectant as well.
At the end of the day though, all this talk goes out the window come round 1. Coaches get judged on their team's performances, not how well they speak in January/February.
