What does it bloody prove you twit? The NMFC doesnt pay Hamish to be hanging around with A list wankers. They pay him to play football. The coach has every right to question whether one of his players is not fully committing themselves to the team.
What sort of coach do you honestly want for the club Nick? Someone who will just let the players cruise along and let them do what ever they want.
Get a ****ing clue FFS.
I believe we have the right to question whether jyd has the best interests of the club at heart and whether he is fully committing himself to the team aswell DR

I mean ffs hamish could have had 20+ hit outs, provided an option up forward, plugged a hole down back, laidley could come out in the media give him a spray and you would still say that laidley did the right thing, laidley could forfeit us from a gf we were odds on favourite to win and you would say he did the right thing, hmm is it just me or is there a pattern forming here

Anyhow back on topic the way laidley is handling all this player management is appauling and not just because I'm not really a fan of his I would have this opinion on any coach who's idea of good player management is blasting them via the media particularly putting them on the trade table when they have shown their commitment to the club by signing a 3 year contract but I would assume in your logic that is good player management.
By your logic blaming the insipid performance against adelaide earlier in the season on daniel pratt when there were clearly 21 others out there in royal blue and white jumpers who were equally as bad is good player management

A good coach
earns respect from their playing group, a good leader/manager
earns respect from their charges so would you care to explain how exactly laidley is going about getting this from our list?
By stabbing in the back the players that bust their arse for him and the club every week? That's real good leadership he provides isn't it. Tell me DR do you want this club to stand as a united front and start moving forwards as a team or would you rather players walking out left, right and centre because we have a coach that let's his rock of gibraltar sized ego make all the decisions? Personally I would rather have a team that plays for each other, the club, the coach and the love of the jumper and that's exactly what this great club is about

Even in your logic you can't possibly tell me that all this undermining and backstabbing could possibly get us anywhere? surely not?
I'm not saying that players shouldn't shouldn't cop their slap on the wrist but there's a time and place and the way we have handled the thommo and sinclair situations was appauling not to mention what's happening with harro, it's just as bad as the way the bulldogs handled the whole scott west retiring and the way we're going we're going to end up with a coach that no one on the playing list wants to play for, a positive result for the club that would be wouldn't it

Thank christ we no longer have an administration that will cave in to jyd's every demand
