    Very sad reading that
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Mitch Hahn was a pretty good player for us. Not sure I like that part.
    Otherwise, yes well written. We are a tipsters' nightmares.

    I think he's talking about Mitch's time forward in his last season where, apart from running into a rampaging Barry Hall and effectively finishing his career, I thought he was pretty good.

    Optimism, pessimism... Reminds me of a great quote by Prof. Cornell West about the huge 'evidence based' distinction between optimism and hope (when looking at an issue. Here, it was progression on racial equality):

    "Optimism is a notion that there’s sufficient evidence that would allow us to infer that if we keep doing what we’re doing, things will get better. I don’t believe that. I’m a prisoner of hope."

    Might be our season 2019 motto.
