You've gotta laugh at times...

[Mr Invisible]

So Jamal Idris gets dropped for missing training.

But what EXACTLY did he miss?

Sitting around eating KFC and talking about our feelings? Practice dropping the ball? Practice not showing emotion? Practice the inside ball? Standing back in defence? Maybe visiting some sick kids in hospital?

Okay the last one maybe a little harsh, but it's a question that again needs asking.

Are our players spending too much time doing charity gigs and not enough time on the field training? Or is the problem not our players but our wonderfully tremendous coach?

......................NO, I'm still crying

Move up FFS!!!!! I must have said that a hundred times at the game

They sometimes do 2 training sessions per day. Do you expect them to be training for 8 hours?

 

[Dogmad]

the problem is the whole training staff, its mates looking after mates. nothing too **** laugh about

It just comes down to us not being good enough and putting in 100%.

Moore does not get the best out of the players and this is why he does not deserve to be in first grade. As a coach, the main responsibility is to have all your players mentally prepared. They all CAN play footy and know how to follow a strategy, it's more about the attitude where we are lacking. Moore can't do it.

I have 400 reasons not to laugh right now.

 

[Rodzilla]

my laugh comes from the fact that the kennel is getting what it deserves

for example the kennel wanted kimmorley to retire and make way for hodgkinson, and so the result is kimmorleys determination and leadership is gone

the bulldogs have no kick chase, no linespeed, no nothing

 

[Bakes]

Hodkinson leads the NRL in making the tackle after kicking. Linespeed is the biggest problem

but its not a kimmorley chase, its a jog chase

Exactly. For example Tony Grimaldi was a great player for us but what process did he go through to get the strength and conditioning role. Did we just assume that because he was a fit player he would be a good trainer. We are one of the wealthiest clubs around. We should be spending money on bringing in the best people in the industry. Do we even employ a wrestling coach? If we did he's doing a terrible job with the way we constantly lose the ruck battle.

Our whole staff needs an overhaul starting from Moore and going all the way though. Yes we can pride ourself on being a 'family club' but we can't sacrifice success on the field for it. We are a footy team and on field success should be the main priority.

More than Idris need to be dropped.
