@atrupar Ok, so the undermining of confidence was wholly the fault of the Chinese. Ok, got it. Nothing to do with the thoughts, actions, and executive powers exercised by the USA President. Got it.
@AFLNation Lesson: the opinions of these 3 people is irrelevant. Results are the only metric. Look forward to stats telling story one way or the other.
@kanecornes@cleary_mitch Tip to Ross: He was really tempted to circle the wagons around Caminiti and be a jerk to media. Then he remembered the team and Caminiti’s performance were really quite terrible, and shifted to humour. The tip? Stop being a dick. That alone will relieve pressure on the Ckub.
@Stavr04 No. Key forwards were not an issue. When we needed to make a statement at the start of the game, we were 3rd to the ball, and made one shallow F50 entry in first 18 minutes. Looked good when we were first to ground ball and got overlap run going.
@SixCrowns_@Thomo_Grant What statistics support your contention here on Ratten? There’s an alternative view - that Ratten was horribly treated by a club that backfilled reasons for his sacking, and failed to apportion any blame to executives who ran footy dept and were then promoted (Lethlean)
@Thomo_Grant By no means our worst coach in that period. But, appointed at the end of one of our worst processes. A board member appointed as coach. St Kilda has never grown up in this sense. Current board seriously getting some things right. But Ratten reappointment then sacking appalling
@XFishingMan This strikes me as a bit dumb and unnecessary. Enjoy your day’s catch, and have a meal, but leave the majestic fish which probably lives around the harbour, alone.
