I'm sure they have a rota on who's going to talk to the T&A this week about dissappointing results/improvement etc.

Week 1- Menzies
Week 2- Scruton
Week 3- Morrison
Week 4- Newton
Week 5- Deacon ......................

Pity is we don't have enough players who know how to write . Im sure Mr Duffy will kindly "help out".

FFS when are the players/coach gonna stop coming out with this crap EVERY WEEK and actually do something about it on the park? Seriously, are the T&A that short of a story that they need to reguritate this rubbish on a weekly basis?

Aah, so you obviously haven't actually bothered to READ the Morrison article, then.

If you had read it then you wouldn't have made a post which could not sensibly be made by a person who had read it.

Theres some honest stuff in there, highlighting the lack of creativity and ruck area problems as well - no hiding the issues and not just blaming luck or ref.

And as Bullseye says, a local RL journalist and a player being questioned will generally always try to put a positive spin on any situation because they are looking for the improvement next week themselves.

Exactly.

Only it doesn't suit the agenda of the Negative Tendency, does it?

What really matters of course is that we are not hearing the same honest stuff much longer.

No it doesnt. But I have to be honest I too had not read it at first because all too often in the past these pieces have been too similar and I just assumed it would follow the same line, i was wrong.

But ultimately you're right and others in both camps are right in saying its on the pitch that counts, if there is no improvement on the pitch we could all be in the Negative Tendancy, its just a question of timing and expectations.

Exactly.

What the NT want is for Morrison to rend his hair, cry thrice woe, admit he is terminally crap and the team beyond salvage, and beg for forgiveness and clemency.

At least I think that's what they want. Maybe one of the NT vessels could tell us what exactly Morrison has said that they so object to, specifically?

Better give some of them time to log on to the T&A site and read the article then...
