Message: [QUOTE="Wolfie, post: 3355253, member: 8770"] They arent intrinsically linked. Just because they can be doesnt mean its the gold standard. Plenty of players just decline and their form goes. Happened with Alex Glenn for example and he's probably been one of the most professional players we have had on and off the field in a long time. If Oates attitude was that bad you would be rattling off game after game after game where he didnt put in, and it just hasnt happened. You can do it for the standard of his performances, he's been ordinary for a quite a while now, not his effort. There are plenty of sportsmen in every single sport who no matter what they do just cant regain their form. Corey could well be one of them. Go and talk to anyone involved in the game about it, if a player isnt trying in a team setting, they are quickly found out and dont stay around for too long. Their team mates wont back a player with no effort. And for the record, i can see why people dont want him in the team based on form ( even though i thought he was decent last year ). He hasnt been at his best for a while. I'm just not buying his attitude is a problem. I get your point about the players laughing after games ( i wouldnt say there were having a great old time though ) and its not a good look for a losing side, but its just what the players do these days. Once the game is over, they talk to their mates from opposition sides. And again, it was hardly a full blown meltdown they way you said it. He was complaining about what he felt were illegal shots.
