Ben Rutten - Back to the grindstone (Part 2)

Dudoro’s fault. List is caca. keep Rutten.

Yep, no chance I’m going this week. I will probably end up going to the movies instead of watching the game on tv

The list is poor, but his use of the players at his disposal is actually making a poor list look worse than it actually is

Poor list looks poor. I’ve heard everything now.

port will beat us by more, imo

There is no way we should allow Xavier to recruit another coach. He’s stuffed up every appointment he’s made. I don’t care how bad the coaching gets, I only want Rutten gone once Xavier is removed first.

Player retention is next. Mark my words.

You know this as a fact?

Did we even interview for the role?

Or did we panic because we thought Adelaide would poach Rutten so we made him an instant offer for senior coach?

Yep.

They might be on a 5 game win streak, at home, with Dixon & Raz back…

He is backed heavily by the AFL. It will never happen.

The dudes obviously getting canned.

The worst thing about his is that yet again …. our players are going to be validated for quitting.

There must be a decent portion of the list who believe that effort is optional.

Effort is dependent on their belief in a coach.

Disgraceful group of players.

We need to thoroughly investigate how we recruit our players and if there is any attempt to evaluate their mental resilience.

Yep, it’s basically like this

This is what should happen, but won’t.

I believe a huge majority of the more educated supporters who know what sort of turmoil is currently happening at the club will refrain from attending many games, especially for the rest of the year, as a sort of statement.

There are too many soft, neutral types who will still go every week and clap the players off anyway. And as soon as anybody is critical of them? You get the usual “bUt i SuPpOrT mY tEaM iN gOOd tImEs AnD tHe bAd” & “dOn’T CoMe BaCk wHeN We sTaRt wINnInG gAmEs”. Then you get the types who you never see all year, except on ANZAC Day and to a lesser extent Dreamtime. Hanging from the rafters on ANZAC Day this year with their Essendon scarf that only comes out of the wardrobe once a year. Most of them wouldn’t even know we lost last night.

But they’ll still rock up at Dreamtime.

Information was received by a family member who is on Melbourne s coaching staff. No reason not to believe it. Had clashes with Goodwin especially

Interesting stuff…I don’t really rate Goodwin (more so as a person)

Seems as though Daniher and Saad smelt a lemon in Rutten from a mile away.

There is no way rutten survives no coach does when the L’s stack up

Certainly looks that way. We couldn’t be any worse.
