Some BS about how the boys are disappointed in their effort and are really looking to turn it around.
The effort on the track this week has been pleasing but it won't count unless we produce on game day.

We trained positively and I am pleased we will bring effort.

I will continue to be conservative with my selections. Don’t expect anything left field. Gilbert for sure ! Don’t worry about kids ... Rice, White, Battle will keep working hard at the zebras. These guys use the ball too well to consider right now.

Our forward line setup won’t change, our forwards will continue to point to where they want the ball, lead only when they can be bothered and as for forward pressure and zones; they don’t exist. Our structures are pleasing. We will get to work on that.

Our mids will crack in for a half. Longer remains as he’s really strong at the ball, just can’t get a kick around ground or win hit outs. Brucey in the ruck has worked for a long time, we won’t change that.

This guy is a very good assistant coach. A battler who lacks tactical nous and any flair.

The presser was to announce that Holman had withdrawn as the coach's match day sponsor. No need to panic. Nestle had stepped into breach and from now on AR will be sponsored by them, specifically to promote the Milky Bar product, which is the subject of a nostalgia based marketing blitz.

Project manager for Nestle, Archie Fraser, told the gathered media pack, "It's very pleasing to have Alan on board. We're positive he is the man to reignite sales of the iconic 70's Classic, the Milky Bar. He embodies everything the product stands for. He is an average and solid performer without being outstanding, a quiet achiever, who nevertheless reminds us of a better, gentler time. Mmmmmm........pleasiiiiiing! He reminds us of happy childhoods in the seventies, when everything was less structured, left to chance A bit like his game plan. We urge you to be patient, because sooner or later, mediocrity rises to the top. Pleasing and positive, don't you think?"

"Despite the confusion, lack of progress and being completely outdated, Alan, like the Milky Bar has somehow survived and like our product is the subject of an unexpected revival, having been given a two year extension on his contract. A number of free samples have been left in the foyer for your enjoyment. The Milky Bars are on him!"


"Is this the right room for an argument?"
"I told you once."
"No, you didn't."
"Yes, I did."
"Listen, an argument isn't just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says, it's a series of statements designed to support a particular conclusion."
"No, it isn't."
"Oh, I've had enough of this."
"No you haven't"
"Oh shut up."

In review, Richardson said it was clear the Saints didn't take the right attitude into the game.

"I think our guys just expected the back-end form against Brisbane to roll on – it was nothing at all to do with the Kangaroos, it was more about us," Richardson said on Thursday.

Surely the players are taking the piss????

Back end form against Brisbane?? We fell in against an expected bottom 4 club. Our last 10 minutes were okay. Surely they weren't cocky after that game? They couldn't have been...could they?
How does the coach derive such observations anyway? I can't believe that any player, even if they were ahead of themselves, would admit to the coach that, 'yes, we smashed that powerhouse team The Brisbane lions by a massive 4 goals at home, and we thought that unbelievable form would carry us through to the following week.' Are our players that big headed that they think they can afford to take ANY opposition in this competition lightly?

I know Richo is on a hiding to nothing this week whatever he says, but gee that disappoints me about the whole playing group and particularly the leadership of the group if this is what permeated through

Lions were the 2017 wooden spooners.
We just scraped in against them. At home.
We lost both JLT games.
We finished 11th last year.

And the coach is telling us players are cruising on the back of their 'good form'?

Not sure if this is a joke or not?

From someone who listened, was this actually in a finger pointing tone... not my fault it was the players type of thing

I know only the players can play the game but I would be mighty disappointed if that was the case

So in the last week he's thrown Elshaug under the bus (with some justification), bemoaned Paddy's lack of fitness(nothing to do with himself of course :roll: ) and now pointing the finger at the players. Methinks someone is right under the pump internally and has trotted out some self protective excuses. This just gets worse.
