I was out yesterday so didn't get a chance to watch the game. Was still disgusted after last weeks performance so even if I had the chance to watch I probably wouldn't have.
But while I was out driving in the Bathurst area back towards home I get a text from my son, must have been early in the game. It said "Where the F was this team last week". Ah I thought they must be winning. He tells me it's 18-0.
A bit later I flick the radio on close to half time and its 24-10. They read the possession and error stats and I immediately think if that turns around the Dragons will fold. I've been here before. I know these things......
During half time my radio reception just became static so I turned the radio off as I continued driving.
I get home and had to the option to fire Kayo up but again after last weeks performance I decided I didn't want to bother. So instead I opened Fox Sports website on my phone and was completely unsurprised to see 7 minutes left to go in the game and the score 24-20. I actually laughed at how pea hearted the team I follow is. I knew exactly what would happen from there. I'm a Dragons fan - I know how these things go.
Put my phone down and went back out to my car to bring some stuff inside.
By the time I come back in I see my phone has just received a text message. It's from my son. The message said - "Only the Dragons. Only. the F^&king Dragons. Only. The. F$%king. Dragons. Seriously. Seriously!!!!!!"
It's crazy that I can be out on a drive at half time 14 points up and know with 99.9% certitude what is going to happen in the second half.
Flanno, you know a lot more about coaching than me. And I trust that you will eventually get the job done here.
But I could have told you before you started that this team will never see success before Hunt and all the other "senior" players that are responsible for building the pathetic mentally weak losing culture this club is now famous for are gone. And I would have told you that even though Hunt may objectively be a "good" player, he is an absolute imposter as a game manager, halfback and most of all, captain. And once again this year Hunt has proved to be the disaster that just keeps giving.
Get the broom out Shane.
