I still can't understand Melbourne's lack of urgency.
Only Paps of the fabled big 4 was having a crack.
It was a f**king grand final and they were so casual.
No wonder Bellamy is 5/11 with 3 legit comps.
Horrible big game coach
Bellamy’s coaching is geared toward consistency. The issue with this is we never, ever have “gear changes” going into finals. We are just consistently great enough to be there or thereabouts.
The two recent comps we’ve won were both essentially blow overs. I know 2020 was close on paper but we were never losing that game.
We fold with a bit of adversity. It’s the biggest thing we miss from the Cam Smith days.
2 wins from our last 6 grand finals is no longer bad luck, we don’t prepare well for the big occasion - and if we do happen to be back next year I think the players will be f**king terrified unfortunately.
