Yeah he'll need his teammates help to do this. The sad thing is this shouldn't need to be said... it should be instinctive and non-negotiable that you protect your teammates, lay blocks and dish out bumps to taggers at every opportunity... especially to help your captain.
We had a bit of a crack with this vs the Saints when Geary wore some heavy hits from the boys but even then it had to be spelt out to them (Scotto giving them a spray at half time asking who was dealing with Geary).
If instilling this sort of attitude into our players is all MM does I'll be happy (well this and a flag or two some time soon ) but it will be hard. How much 'help' did Judd receive over the last 5 years?? He was in the top few players in the comp AND our captain yet we still failed to protect him. Time for MM to belt the 'nice' off some of the baggers!!
With former captain Chris Judd closer to the end than the beginning, Murphy is aware the taggers are lining up behind Crowley to take his scalp, most likely continuing with Bulldog Liam Picken on Saturday night. "I'm looking forward to copping another one soon and dealing with it better," he said.
Talk is cheap, time for action!
I hope he can do it and lift the team in the process. If he gets his pants pulled down again it won't end well.
Personally, I don't think they should bother. I don't think we are good enough to make an impact on the finals series this year. I would be getting ready for next year. With a new fitness regime(but nothing experimental), some new blood (just not from a calf)and a better understanding of what Malthouse wants(so make better use of their grey matter, not pigs' grey matter), we should be better.
From what we've seen so far, no. As for a respected poster, just because a poster may have a negative karma rating does not make him disrespected. All it means is he has an opposing view to many, well that's if the function is used properly.
Surely then it should be called the "Sheik" function instead of the Karma function
