Ed, this is the game that's make or break for me. This will determine whether I lose confidence in Bluey, the selections, the team.
What has kept me optimistic so far is that so many people within League are saying Bluey is such a good coach. Then I think of how good Bennett is, and how bad he comes across in interviews too (reading his books, especially 'Don't die with the music in you', he seems a totally different person, and you do understand how he inspires and ignites a team), I'm hoping Bluey's like that- awful with his public speaking, good with the team.
Some even suggest the 'thick Bluey' is a persona he does deliberately for the cameras/mics. If it is, it's bloody convincing!
But anyway, this is the game, following two of the worst performances in recent history, a fair enough slating in the media and fanbase, and a chance to make ammends at home. I can handle a loss, if of course it's a passionate loss with heart, against a side that were too good for us on the day. A loss like the last couple of weeks...and I don't know where we go. There has to be a spark today, surely.
