After another disappointing loss I have gone beyond quiet optimism, fatalism and blind hope and have landed squarely in a state where 'pissed off' is a hell of an understatement.
What is aggravating my anger is I have no idea who to be 'annoyed' at.
The players? Some of them certainly seem to deserve it.
The coach? Doesn't the buck stop with him?
The board? Aren't they the ones running everything?
The ARU? Is it all about the money?
The fans? Yes, you lot who tell me I should continue with my blind faith and quiet optimism and just 'support the boys'.
If the coach was a parent, and 'the boys' were his kids, I would say this is terrible parenting. Where are the consequences for bad behavior?
Are we that short on team members that we have to continue to pick under-performing players every damn week?
Is the coach too busy trying to be everyone's mate to come down heavy and hard with a bit of tough love?
Lack of discipline on the fields shows a lack of discipline everywhere else.
So, since I am not bereft of people to get annoyed at I figure I shall get annoyed at everyone.
It was a shit game, played by shit players under a shit coach managed by a shit board. All of them should be held accountable and most of them replaced by people who can actually do the jobs they were hired to do.
