I don't care what the player is like as long as we win.
The team is not there to make friends.
One objective to win.
2016 team was not liked by people outside of the fans.
But they won that's all that counts
That's not the Sharks attitude now is it. Good characters, win occasionally, cause no offence.

Which is why in the good clubs there is no such thing as a no dickhead policy. A club CAN NOT have success without a couple of fair dinkum cockheads. That's just how league is and has been since 1908. The Cronulla Sutherland Wokes have absolutely no hard arsed maniacs and every team will find someone to get under their skin and put them right off their games.

But that's got nothing to do with wokeness or being a trackhead. It's about mental toughness and resilience.

Perhaps but it has nothing to do with resilience either. That's not the apex in dealing with stress in modern pyshchology.

The aim is to be anti fragile.

Fragile - collapses under stress
Resilience - repels stress but internalises it so that collapse still comes
Anti fragility - Thriving and excelling under stress. It's rare but it's the pinnacle. Someone like Jimmy Maloney has it.

The key is you keep them in line to a degree

I don't know if Fitzy signed off on this haka business to SJ but that projected the wrong image so much.

I am thinking had that been a player who played with Rangers moved to Celtic, and last game was at away venue no way would anything like that happened, nor Sunderland and Newcastle.

The club is projecting the wrong attitude, and the fans need to make the venue hostile, it certainly has changed since the late 80's
