Derrwayne doesn't barrack. He's a whore to whatever little bit of excitement he perceives, or any little opportunity he sees to try and be a cheap, scuffed, inferior Temu version of Commetti on his worst day.
That's fair enough. Tbh I forgot Simmo had coached a premiership, because I mostly remember his sad face in losing press conference after losing press conference for most of the 6 years after that. Still, not sure he's the guru he's made out to be, and Hinkley most certainly is not.
It's not entirely his fault. It's the stupid media outlets that are empowering the likes of Simpson and Hinkley, failed geniuses that somehow get elevated to being the voices of All-Knowing Coachdom.
Simpson, who presided over a decade of failure at West Coast, is giving Carr tips on important things like press conferences, rather than trivial matters such as coaching the team before/during/after the game. SMFH.
Forward momentum towards the fence. He came in like a freight train, as usual. He may have taken a step or 2 to steady himself at the last second, but there was no walking involved.
Not gonna keep going back and forth bandying your perceptions and analysis, which is only your perspective, as fact. It is not. The scoreboard is the ONLY objective measuring stick. If the Crows had kicked inaccurately an argument could be made, but they did not. It was 11.10 to 11.9...
But Rozee doesn't have any more mental toughness or burning desire to drag us over the line off his own boot, than anyone else does. I don't see him being the Jesus to save us from these situations.
It's quite simple. You pointed out several things they did better than us. No argument there. And yet we found a way to almost win in the last minute, and lose by a point. So we clearly did a lot right. I haven't poured over the stats, but the scoreboard doesn't lie. You can't get any...
Needs to do a lot of work with the club sports psychologists. Not mentally tough enough when important moments arise. It's become a real pattern. Join the dots.
They need to be confronted with stats showing this pattern, straight up. In the next midfield meeting.
"Well - over to you. What are you are bloody going to do about it??"
