Jack said that he’d never been at a club where he felt respected by his coaches until he came to Port. That’s a huge indictment on Melbourne and it’s no wonder they haven’t played finals in ages - it’s obviously all about what a player isn’t doing rather than what he is.
I loved the fact that the players and coaches are at ease with one another to talk s**t about others in a light hearted manner but at the same time you can tell there is a resolve among the group that everyone pushes themselves to get better. Also, the story of Rockliff picking up the $800-$900 drinks tab for the new players introduction night goes to show why he’s in the leadership group - he takes responsibility for team chemistry/building.
