Message: [QUOTE="mstreet, post: 3643487, member: 11634"] Sacking Kevie would be a mistake. Although I did call a month back that non of his assistants would survive the year. They jumped ship rather than sacked. Lee Briers coaching in attack is brilliant as we saw in 23, but it needs perfect conditions for it to work; no injuries, great depth, the talent, stability, form, luck, etc. 23 was an example of everything going your way. It was obvious in Round 1 the issues at play, outside of injuries to come. The lack of respect for the fundamentals, the effort areas. We just wanted to throw the footy around on every play, rather than work our way into a game. I think the lack of ball control this season started with the idea, we can defend any errors, so keep throwing. Those risky passes didn't work this year, like they did last year; confidence in the playing group started to erode. I personally believe Areys body is done as a player. With this in mind, I hope Kevie finds assistants that can build a game around respecting the fundamentals, building pressure, and letting players like Mam or Walsh exploit that. [/QUOTE]
