All out attack mentality

BA on his media rounds tonight has said he takes full responsibility for the loss . We've built our season on defence and we went into the Souths game with an all out attack mentality which confused the players. 

We're going to go back to our style and would much rather win a game 14-10 than lose 38-0.

Can't make this shit up.

  • And?

    btw he never said the players were confused. 

    • What did he say then?

      The all our attack mentality produced 0 points. and seriously, what first grade footballer works on their attack during the week so shows up and throws out the last 15 weeks worth of defensive principles.

      He doesn't know what happened, its a lame excuse. He didnt get the team up, they've looked tired for 6 weeks and the defensive systems the coaching staff built were flattered by wet and slippery tracks and teams with key players out. Waqa and Fergo have had the same issues all year which haven't been corrected but werent as exposed with teams staying away from the sidelines. Sivo has lost all defensive confidence. This result has been building for weeks and if he thinks it comes down to the team incorrectly going into the game with an 'all out attack' mentality twhich produced ZERO points then hes kidding himself.

      • What did you honestly want to hear? He took full responsibility and simply said he probably focused too much on attack during the week instead of their usual defensive mindset. Sounds reasonable to me. 
        What would have left you satisfied? (Apart from him saying he's quitting). 

        • We worked on our attack all week, went into the game with an attacking mentality and we scored ZERO points. Where does that fill you with confidence the guy knows what he's talking about?

          • Pretend you're BA. Tell us what he should have said that would have made you satisfied. 

            • Check the end of this thread I answered what I felt wouldve been better there :)

      • Tough question that BA nor his supporters can answer I'm afraid.

  • We need to own our effort areas.  He ne or saw this coming but everyone else did 

    Honestly ba has lost me.  Its obvious we take high risks in our own half.

    How many times have we turned over possession in our own 50 in the past 6 weeks, must be the worst in the comp on that stat , but good old ba didn't see in coming

      • SACK THE USELESS *#@* AND HIRE A REAL COACH!

        The guy has NFI and proved the old adage, "It is better to be thought a fool than open your mouth and prove them right."

        Same ole platitudes we hear every week - Ah well Popps I see you haven't forgotten the good old days.
