Robert Heatley Stand / Re: 2018 Rd 6: Post Game Passion: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs
So what do we do with our “non- tryers”? We can’t drop half the side. I don’t know how do we get in their heads and shake them up so they really put in.
I know skill are also an issues. How do we fix this also? Coaches can only do so much, but these guys are professionals. I know for some of the younger guys they are still very much developing into AFL players, but we need the older heads to set the standard.
I know these questions have been asked over and over but I’m trying to put it together in my head.

My young fella, nearly 7, has shown a real interest in watching games on Tele with me this year. Stayed up to watch last night but fell asleep by half time haha. Same against the filth a few weeks ago. He does have a soft spot for the Bulldogs, cos he likes dogs, and last night he said to me “Dad I don’t want to upset you but I wish we were born Bulldogs supporters not Blues supporters”. It was an innocent comment from the mouth of a child but I couldn’t help but feel slightly crushed haha. The first thing he asked me this morning was who won and he was so disappointed when I told him that the Blues had lost.
I am a patient person and I trust in the process that we are currently going through. I just hope we come good before he’s old enough to make his own decisions. Already this year my brother, a supporter of more than 30 years, has jumped ship. To the scum. THE SCUM!! And he’s now a paid up member! I mean how? I don’t understand.

Anyway this is the longest post I’ve ever dropped.

Go Blues, let’s keep our heads up. Keep supporting and trust that we are in the right path.
