It's time
If only to hopefully get that attitude to filter to the rest of the team, who are playing in 3rd gear. Footage of players walking as the ball transitioned out of the forward line last week was damning. They don't GAF at the moment and talk by Dimma and Jack to say otherwise is head in the sand or of course saving face. The footage and stats show the mindset of most of the players in the last 2 weeks.

A guy like Parker playing with 110% mad attack on the pill is exactly what Is needed. A player like Naish offers nothing in that regard.

Parker / hopefully a rejuvenated Stack and even Mansell will bring the attitude. No more weak soft efforts by players. Parker may not be accurate to goal or a good decision maker, but he has shown he has what the team is lacking right now.

Yep .. one of a very small number who are genuinely hungry it would seem

Aarts out before George, surely.

You’re kidding.
For mine, personally, Aarts is part of the reason we aren't playing as well as we'd like. I know that sounds harsh, but he isn't quick enough to apply genuine pressure in our manic gamestyle, and is way too easily beaten in a one on one contest. He is bringing us down, basically.

On the flipside, I feel George has always been the same. He's never the reason we're up nor down. When we're down, he looks shite, when we play well, he is really dangerous and creates havoc with his pace. If we start playing well again, expect to see him looking better. But atm the whole side is struggling as a collective.
