Agree fully.It's unfortunate, because Hurley stated he was aware he'd been passing off too often.
Then in the Melbourne game, there were a few instances where you could actually see his body language shift, as though he thought "**** it, it's my time", yet he just shanked the kick.
Those are the times where I really hope he's taught to be resilient, and keep taking the shots; not be put off by whatever the hell happened that night.
Not that I'm aware of.Just out of interest do we ever train at Etihad during the week?
As we've learnt over the last 18 months Essendon sneakily swap and change coaches at the drop of a hat and this has a direct and immediate impact on the players' performance. I'm sure they're the same with their psychologists, dieticians, sports science people, marketing & so on.
I hereby move that they should sack the guy they had for the first 3 quarters, and keep the guy who was coaching their goalkicking for the last quarter. CLEARLY it's "coaching".
And, since someone saw a talk from someone who works at one AFL club, clearly this means it's an area that our club hasn't even thought about.
A quick glance at our 'staff' listing any time since the 1990s might prove worthwhile, but if you have seen a talk, then by all means make an assumption that it's something we haven't got.
BTW, why would anyone want to kick at goals like Geelong? Does no-one else remember a certain grand final???
{BTW from what I can find, that Russ Harris bloke isn't a psych. He's an ex-GP, who now runs coaching stuff in mental techniques. The Sports Psych (the one that Essendon apparently don't have) is a Sports Psych, who works at 3 professional sports teams, QLD's institute of sport, Tennis Australia, and QU, and also worked at the Suns is, actually, a Sports Psychologist. He probably should be taking advice from someone not even qualified, if he's not already - great call Saladodger!}
Yeah dunno, but the same distance and angle, on the right side, he'll usually get.So you think its the bad side for him or you reckon he has the Nick Riewoldt's (Matty Richo) then? Miss the easy shots (pressured by fear of failure), but relaxes on the difficult ones because "they can hardly blame me for missing this"?
