The governing body of the league could do with a kick up the arse but it's still the best sport in the world to watch, even with all the soddy rule changes.
Where the hell do these council workers who actually give a shit about anything exist? All I see here are grubby, lazy sods who like to sit around or lean on shovels all day.
$20 an hour and free snacks just to make sure some kids survive a few hours is more than reasonable. No wonder we outsource work to foreign companies when babysitters demand so much.
"If you do make the eight, do you think you could do some damage?"
How is a player meant to respond to this? You go into every game with the belief you can win, no matter how much the odds are stacked against you, so he isn't even necessarily lying. What's the problem?
It all gets skewed...
The bat, easily. Knife requires you to be very precise and even if you get a few jabs or cuts in it doesn't guarantee they'll be injured enough to back down. A baseball bat you can quickly neutralise your opponents even with wild swings.
He makes comments because he gets asked about it, and I suppose they ask him because they know he's not just gonna regurgitate the same old cliches. Hardly using it as a deflection, he's been pretty upfront in all the post-games in saying that we simply weren't hungry/good enough.
At his best I'd still take him over Curnow, easily. I suppose the question is will he ever get back to his best. I sure hope so.
I like Curnow and I think he's flown under the radar a bit, had a great year, but not sure if there's room for both him and Carrots in the best 22.
