The reason Paddy lacks confidence is simple.
He isn't AFL fit.
He has been allowed to float through four years in the system without being fit.
The coaches have allowed this. It is disgraceful.
The coaches came up with the half witted idea that he didn't need to get fit because he could just crash packs and be a power fwd.
This was a crazy idea.
The coaches should be ashamed.

Unless you have heard from the coaches themselves, ypu wpuld not know that

Oh I love this argument.

Do you have to know Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong personally to know the moon exists?

It is plain obvious McCartin isnt AFL level fit.

And you don't have to fall off a cliff either to know it probably hurts.

Yes we can always make a judgement on someone's fitness because we can see them out there and make observations.

It's quite a different thing though to make the sort of assertions your namesake did, eg:

"The coaches came up with the half witted idea that he didn't need to get fit because he could just crash packs and be a power fwd.
This was a crazy idea.
The coaches should be ashamed."

In regards to those comments, I agree totally with saintly.

And I think Buzz Aldrin and the late Neil Armstrong would also.

One crappy loss and its Henny Penny central

Let's see how they respond

One crappy loss and its Henny Penny central

Let's see how they respond

One crappy loss this year (an an underwhelming win)...to go with numerous crappy losses last year. If it was an anomaly then fair enough, however TMBK has been at the wheel for too many crappy losses for this punter and appears to be driving the bus down a road to nowhere, all the while nodding re-assurances that we are on the road to a rosy destination.
Indeed, if you just park the crappy aspects of that last performance, there were some positive and pleasing things to come out of it.
Am at a loss myself as to what to do.
Sack coach = turmoil, financial loss, dispiriting acknowledgement of another failed effort.
Retain coach = turmoil, financial loss, dispiriting repetition of failure.....
Feeling not at all optimistic about our prospects with TMBK in charge.

By blaming the coaches I am giving Paddy an out.

If you don't think the coaches are in any way responsible for his fitness levels then I guess you must think Paddy is 100% responsible and just plain lazy.

Geez Con, forget for a moment about whether Paddy is fit or not fit and who's fault it is.

I am talking about you specifically stating as a fact that "the coaches came up with the half witted idea that he didn't need to get fit because he could just crash packs and be a power fwd".

You're not putting this as a theory; you're putting as a fact. And because you're putting it as a fact you are then adding "This was a crazy idea" and "The coaches should be ashamed"

If you're going to bag the coaches, call them crazy and state they should be ashamed, as least provide some evidence to back it up.

There were plenty of interviews on radio and TV where the coaches talked about Paddy 'hitting packs' and 'clunking marks'.

The cold hard fact is he has been in the system four years with four pre seasons and is miles off AFL fit.

The logical inference is the coaches think it's ok if he carries some extra pudding because he can play as an old fashioned 'power fwd'.

Either that or it is just plain negligence.

The end result is an unfit 22 year old.
Ridiculous.
