I guess you better get used to seeing Watson "running" around in the number 4 for a few more seasons yet. How does that make you feel? :lol: :lol: Good, isn't it!!!
Yeah. It'll be good next year when the kid rubs it right in your face Ben... :mrgreen:
Umm, Dr.Fish........I'm gagging, I was re-quoting gringo's assessment of one Jobe Watson from a while ago. He has a compulsive disorder to slag every player at the club......perhaps you can prescribe him something Doc?[/quote]

Play nice boys we don't need another Bluey incident!!!!! :lol:

Two Disprins and a swig of good ol' cod liver oil before bed for his poor judgement. As for his almost irrational reliance on the Oxford Dictionary, I'm really not sure what to prescribe ... :-k

Yep, altitude and ATTITUDE training will be good!
I think the attitude is fine, especially with some of the players we have now cleared out in the last 12 months.
For some reason I missed this reply. Sorry for the delay! I wasn't just referring to the on/off field undisciplined acts of one D.Solomon, Ty Zantuck, Cupido etc, I was also referring to mental application of the whole list as well. I believe there is a losing culture down there where the group simply believe "they cannot win" or simply don't know how to hold their nerve when challenged. Examples such as the Adelaide debacle, and games where we were red hot to win v St.Kilda, Carlton and a couple of other teams demonstrated they didn't have the mental toughness to win those games. Many might say we were unlucky to not win more of our close matches (and there were a few decided by 3 goals or less), but a lot had to do with lack of mental application or just plain "attitude".
