Thry, DJC and cookie, I would agree. The problem is that perception sometimes becomes 3/5 of reality, so anyone who knows they're not getting games in the seniors, and sees their social media status, would be tempted to put 2 and 2 together, and draw unfavorable conclusions. Perhaps they could post photos tweets etc. of themselves busting their guts at training, or something similar. If they're not working hard, at least look like they are.

At least someone gets it. Perception is everything.

Im with you when you say this.  I battle perceptions frequently at work with regards to what people think we do, vs what we actually do.

Do you actually KNOW what you are meant to do or do you just think you know what you're doing?

Perhaps your perception is that you know what you're doing when in reality others know and you don't. Your perception is your reality, meanwhile everyone else has a differing perception.

I think everyone's perception of what is going there is irrelevant, and Ill defer to the coach.

A novel idea Thry

Who would have thought that the coach and match committee could know what they are doing?

I'm sure that blokes like Jaksch, Graham, Jones and Boekhorst know exactly what is expected of them but, for whatever reason, they just can't manage it consistently.

I reckon Jones's problem is different, its similar to Caz in that its btw the ears on game day. He trains the house down from all reports and is much liked by his team mates.

I think Jones work rate exceeds the other and by some margin, his problem is he just doesn't get enough of the footy.

His big problem in game 2 was that we couldn't get the ball near him. He showed that he was 'on' with that great leap and mark. But he didn't have a decent opportunity again that day. He even ended up in the ruck when Korchek needed a rest.

Why is that though?...Is it because he gets lost in traffic or does he work hard find space and get overlooked and/or suffer from poor delivery.

I've mentioned thus before.  Jones always ran to where Henderson was, clogging Hendersons space with an extra defender.  He just doesn't run to smart places where he can get the ball in space and/or have a chance of scoring.  Basically has no idea of leading patterns etc.
