If the team has more handballs than kicks then they are probably too scared to kick it and just want to make it someone else's responsibility. To me this denial of responsibility is another black mark against Dimma. If it's true that Dimma was slamming his fists into the bench yesterday about the ring a rosy chain, then I have no faith in him whatsoever in his ability to be able to turn it around, it shows that the denial of responsibility is evident at all levels.
Our team is better than they are showing and I think it is time for Hardwick to go, but the club has shot itself in the foot with some ridiculous long term contracts and unfortunately Dimma is one of them.

My tip is that Dimma will get pushed/resign towards the end of next year when we are headed for another finish around 11-15th and we will negotiate a payout with him.

I wish I'd said that......

"I started jeering, as well, when we kicked the ball forward."

What brought on this level of honesty.  Haven't seen it in 5 years.  Has he been told it will be over for him at season's end so he is giving it to the players now as a form of revenge.

I would prefer some honesty - but this is such a dramatic swing from everything else he has said this season that you have to ask yourself.  WTF?

At least he's finally being honest - the sad thing is if he spoke like this from the start instead of feeding us BS I'd probably still respect him along with thousands of others

Agree

Be careful you might cop it like Dimma has for saying that

I hope not, I have nothing to back up that statement.

Dw everyone knows it's true but it's just easier to give Hardwick a whack because everyone wants him sacked
