Meh ... JHF will always be a player who plays on the edge, it is in his DNA. Just think of players like Toby Greene. Already the most fined player in AFL history, Yet most of us would give our left testicle to get him to Port!I disagree. I like that he is super competitive but there is nothing at all to gain with spitting the dummy and giving away 50's and free kicks. The 50 metre and goal gifted to them at the start of the second quarter was critical in changing momentum of the game. We were in front, JHF does something stupid and then they get a goal and end up kicking the next 4 to go from a goal down to 3 goals up. And we end up losing by 14 points. The game was pretty even despite that patch, where we completely lost our way.
I guess it was good to see, because most here wanted us to lose anyway.
So lets turn JHF into a vanilla player. Yay! That will make him match the vanilla club we are turning into!
So, just a suggestion .... instead of copying the Hinkleyfiles and Vic media, by laying the blame on the players, how about focusing on the cause of the problem? The reason WHY JHF was becoming frustrated, and the players making mistakes trying to get back into the game? The reason why the players were becoming irritated after having 15 forward entries for a score of 1 point?
If the team was playing cohesive football, then guarantee you that JHF would not have reacted to the niggle. Does he need to get a handle on it? Of course he does - And he WILL. But right now, the real cause lies elsewhere. Get angry at that!
