Re: Chris Newman (Merged)
I think it has been important that the team get some confidence back into the side before bringing in too many inexperienced kids.
Things were going off the rails and belief was shaken. The win against Port was important in particular. You could see it meant a lot to the club.
Think we might see a bit more experimentation after the bye.

Hope so, but we've still got at least one untouchable, at least until he reaches his milestone.Tigers of Old said:

Seriously if the club is placing importance on a personal milestone of 250 games as the main reason for playing Chris I would be filthy.
Who gives a flying stuff?
Lenny Hayes just fell short of 300 games and what he said in his presser was so true. That's not why you play football.

Re: Chris Newman (Merged)
It seems to be that they are, though, ToO. I don't know why. Maybe privately he's said that the 250 will be it for him, maybe they think they can really fire the players up for the game. Campbell pulled the pin a few short of his 300 as well. On the face of it the club seem to be making some very odd decisions this year.Tigers of Old said:

Agree, there needs to be fallout. Not necessarily sack the coach fallout, which isn't going to happen anyway. But there needs to be accountability for the disaster.

Re: Chris Newman (Merged)
The club is not ruthless enough and will not be successful until they are.

Re: Chris Newman (Merged)
Me too, Carts. I didn't begrudge Newman the final last year, but I do think that sentiment played a big part in selecting him for that game. I don't believe he was 100% fit.Carter said:

No big loss. John Daly would have done a better job as midfield coach.

Re: Chris Newman (Merged)
finally some media speculation about newman. its staggers me how he has managed to fly under the radar all these years. statistically speaking, he has had 5 consecutive years of reduced output. you've been selfish for years, time to do the right thing now chris...

It sounds like Jake might be gone, but I can see Newman getting another year.mb64 said:
