Just wanted to officially throw my support behind our coach.
This is not an attack on any of the criticisms aimed at him on this forum. I think thats all healthy and I even agree with some of it. Certainly I cannot see the value in Corey Hughes.
However, there is a big difference between watching players play, and coaching them. Face to face, there can be so many subtleties involved, and perhaps Corey will start to deliver tonight. Perhaps not.
But to me, I really believe Ricky can get us there. Hes a winner. He is resolute, and creates teams. That takes time. This year has been a huge disappointment so far, but you simply cant separate the performances on the field from the injuries, suspensions, player losses and yes, in my opinion, refereeing that seems to mostly go against us at the moment.
With a new, full team on board, we were always going to take a little while to gel this year. With all of the above, its little wonder were struggling.
From a guy whos hated every minute of the last 5 games and in honesty didnt really love the first 80 minutes either I still think Rickys got what it takes.
I expect us to start winning. I expect Barrett and Buster to be one of the best halves combinations in the game by the year end.
I know none of this is new news, but wanted say it none the less. And before a game rather and after our first win in a while.
Regardless, I expect Ricky will win us a premiership.
Go the Sharkies.
Let the lambasting begin.
