That's the thing a bout it Rosy, when emotions rule our actions we, more often than not, get ourselves into trouble.
The cold light of day is when rational, clear thinking decisions are made.
St. Kilda thought that Malcolm Blight was the answer to all their problems. Maybe the footy Gods did them a favour or just told them the plain truth that no single person is going to solve their problems.
And this is how our Club has to approach things. The success or otherwise of this Club does not hang on Danny Frawley or any other individual, but on how everyone works together to get through things.
Sure Harry, we can go and get Terry Wallace or whoever else is out there, but unless we have people at the Club ready to support and work with whoever is the Coach, then God himself would have a hard time putting a winning combination together.
Danny is not perfect, we all know that, but who is?
I am voting 'yes' on your poll. Because if anyone is to go then I think it should not just be one person who pays the price, but also those around him who could not support him to get better and to make different decisions.
Several weeks ago, neither injuries, passengers nor the opposition could stop us. A month later, a team that is apparently going to live in Bleaksville for at least the next 3 to 6 seasons could.
Danny changed his mindset at some stage and no one around him was able to see it or do anything about it. That's where we fall down. Yes, Danny is ultimately responsible, but there are others who need to be just as responsible for what has happened of late and has happened in previous seasons.
Changing the Coach again will only solve anything if the support around him is strong and stable.
If the administration gives in to the whims and emotions of supporters then this suggests to me that we would be in trouble … again.
If they identify that Danny is not the right person for the job, that is one thing, but to base a decision on what we think is asking for trouble.
