As far as I'm concerned, once a player pulls on the Red V jersey, they become part of us, part of our history.We haven't even hit the paddock yet and we have posters running down the players recruited.
IMO, any level of criticism should be directed towards the Club administration. The players are signed by the Club, they don't select themselves week-to-week.
In recent times certain players have copped a toxic level of abuse. That's a direct result of poor seasonal results.
What us fans need to realise is that the fault doesn't fall at the feet of the players. Once we embrace that attitude, we can regroup as a credible tier and re-establish the pressure to keep the bastards honest. It has happened before.
Blaming the players only divdes us.
2022 will be a testing time. Let's make the most of it.
Signed,
Full of confidence
