Totally mystified by the tackle count yesterday 66 freo - 38, tackling is a fundamental part of this game we just dont make the opposition turn it over consistently. Explain to me this story... http://richmondfc.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=110129y
frawley has lost it with lines like this "we probably had enough good efforts" Probably????? this game was definitely winnable as stated by Harry.
"it just means we are not far away but we still have a long way to go," he said. (does that even make sense??)
what does he want? his contract extended indefinitely untill results appear?
Its the near enuff is good enuff attitude is the reason we will have to wait to see if were "good enuff" for a finals berth next season if our coaching panel is left intact.
I think that sums up his entire career at st. kilda, years of mediocore results which has followed him to RFC!
To all the spud lovers out there he has had his chance to show the goods and all he has shown is what a fluke his 1st years effort was and, a defensive, uncreative and uninspired gameplan which HAS not and WILL not win too many games against quality opposition and superior coaching. Our six-two start just showed up what teams we will be rubbing shoulders with come years end proving, we have not improved and i for one can not see us improving under this current style of coaching. Every time we are challenged we seem to resort to this style which i think is what you were getting at harry "why every game we play becomes an ugly game to watch".
Greg millers statement on finishing his contract only seem to want to show the football public that we stand by our coach and contract commitments as we havent in the past ,but its wrong to paint a facade of club unity when the person you are standing by is obviously not the man for the job. Keeping him is only to keep up appearances at board level, they dont want to look stupid for standing by him in the media all year.
Near enuff results should not be tolerated by any tiger fans of this once proud and ferocious club. The whimper we have been witnessing year in year out must be stamped out by ruthlessness in all areas of this club and the rebuilding should start NOW with a 10 year plan!
The reaper is coming for you RFC and he's carrying a spud peeler!
