Here is a novel idea. MAN UP!!

Tigerdog, your idea is innovative but I don't think we're ready to experiment with it.

;D
 
Can anyone tell me who was supposed to be on Lockyer, Burns and Swan on Friday night. Our accountability when they had the ball was terrible. Too many of our guys were happy to run forward and very few were prepared to run to cover. I think this is the definition of a downhill skier!
 
Same goes for this week. God forbid any of our players would be accountable!
Referring back to my comments of 'dumb footballers' over the years, we don't have the smarts to play zones or a loose man in the backline. Mainly because we are a team of dumb footballers playing to an unaccountable game plan. But even dumb footballers are smart enough to man up!
Wallet for god's sake breathe some fn passion into this team!!

When you lack football smarts and the ability to execute basic skills, the least you can do is be accountable.
Wallet is to blame here. His obsession with having a loose man in defense has cost us on more than one occassion.
Play to your strengths, or your weaknesses in our case.
We don't have the skills or smarts to play posession, 'tempo' footy. Yet we are seemingly either instructed, or do it off our own bat as a team, to stand off our opponents.
Well I say *smile* the zone! Man UP! Make your opponent accountable. It makes me sick the way football is heading and our style of play under Wallet is championing the cause. Kind of ironic considering we are terrible at it.
