Hear Hear. The reality is our cattle are not top quality.longtimesaint wrote: ↑Sun 02 Jun 2019 6:12pm What rubbish to blame Richo.
With at least 4 or 5 players not good enough and the better ones with after effects from illness, Clarkson wouldn’t have done better.
But they are our cattle and Richo extracts plenty of milk.
Richo has got the players playing as team with good systems and structures.
But when the players don't bring their very best, oppositions are likely to run rings around them.
They are our players and our coach.
They give their best most of time but they are not elite.
I am reminded of a cartoon about a King.
The distressed adviser tells the King that the peasants are revolting.
The King calmly replies, I know my peasants are revolting but they are the only peasants I've got.
Our list is probably bottom two in quality and yet our boys beat Carlton last week, and even threaten the eight.
If you want to sack anyone go back in your time machine and sack recruiters Beveridge and Trout.
But realise their replacements may be no better.
