And the mental aspect of nailing a shot with a game on the line and thousands of eyes on you.
You can nail them all day long at training and it doesn't count for much. It's like practising a speech in front of the mirror at home.

House of Footy understands Richmond will pick up Sam Naismith as a delisted free agent, replacing Ivan Soldo who departed for Port Adelaide. Naismith was smashed by injury during his time at the Swans, managing just 30 games since his debut in 2014, and only two games since 2017.
 
Rucci actually looks like what he is, a man who went from documenting rich Port Adelaide history, his articles being praised and adored (maybe not adored), to an empty sellout who has to struggle with what he's done

Well Nankervis's captaincy will probably stop him from being pushed out by Naismith this time...
 
Explosive Melbourne Football Club board documents reveal the Demons’ top brass agreed to start “scenario planning” for the sacking of coach Simon Goodwin on the eve of the 2021 premiership season. Minutes of a March 11, 2021 directors meeting obtained by the Herald Sun contradict the club’s repeated claims they had no concerns over Goodwin’s conduct at the time.

The five-hour board meeting focused on steps to be taken in the event Goodwin needed to be removed if the team performed badly, if his alleged off-field behaviour “blows up” or if he was unable to “cope” with the pressures of the job. It came amid concerns over allegations of illicit drug use at the club, as well as gambling and bullying involving Goodwin and the sudden sacking of Melbourne doctor Zeeshan Arain just days after he had raised the alarm about the club’s culture.

The meeting in the Melbourne Room at the MCG was attended by 11 club officials including chief executive Gary Pert, current president and then-director Kate Roffey, football director Brad Green, vice-president Mohan Jesudason, board members John Trotter and Steve Morris and then-club boss Glen Bartlett.

“A discussion was held about the need to conduct scenarios if Simon Goodwin cannot cope or if the board does have to move on Simon Goodwin,” the minutes state. “GB (Bartlett) noted that the MFC illicit drugs policy needs to be improved. A working group with some directors may be established … JT (Trotter) noted that a mid-year unplanned sacking is devastating to the club based on his experience on the MFC board. “GB reiterated his strong view that the coach should not be dismissed on performance grounds in the middle of the season, but behaviours and capacity remain watching areas for Simon Goodwin …

“A discussion was held as to supporting Simon Goodwin and continually ensuring he is fit for work.” According to the minutes, an action item was agreed for Bartlett, Green and Pert “to conduct scenario planning”.

I wonder if the embittered GB has become emboldened by the latest shenanigans that have come to light recently at MFC and accidentally sent the minutes to Mick Warner...

I am shocked to be standing here.

Is this news? Surely every competent club would have mapped out scenarios in case they have to sack their coach.

And no, for obvious reasons that doesn't include Port, but I figure the 6th word there covers why that is

Imagine being a competitive athlete and not doing everything you can possibly do within the rules to be the best you can because you're not paid enough.

Do football clubs really need a Chief Executive, a Director, a President, a Football Director, a 'Club Boss', a Vice-president, a Head Coach, and 8 board members?

I hope this spectacularly blows up in his face and completely derails yet another lolN0rf season. Except that will probably mean they'll get more handouts from the AFL.
