Voss has us playing a safe slow wide gameplan which typically is used when coaches don’t trust they teams ball use see their as having major holes and lacking leg speed. This gameplan reduces mistakes and keep the opposition to as low a score as possible. Even if we snare a win It’s awful to watch. He knows we are slow and can get caught badly on turnovers esp thru the middle so we only dare go there when the game is pretty much over and have nothing to lose. There is no flair no exciting passages of play. Boring and frustrating for fans to watch a list that is supposed to be deeply entrenched in finals this year play this sort of brand.
Haven’t even hit the bye and finals are now gone and we may finish the season just a few positions above the basket case teams.
I’ve finally now lost the passion I had and don’t get anywhere near as annoyed when we lose cause i fully expect it now. I still love my club and always will but I now have accepted this rebuild is a fail and the current list will not be successful in any sense of the word. Worst part is the players think the same and play accordingly.
This is unfortunately an accurate assessment of the situation imo. I now feel that each game is an exercise in futility and am resigned to feeling that there is no visible way out of the present wilderness. The club just looks lost.
