Re: Thank You Rocket
Its hilarious, but if true no wonder we fell short. There is no way if that was Rocket we were getting the best of him at those moments.

He didn't call him a f**king spastic to his face. Just to the other coaches...
As a special comments man, Rocket please join woof. You scream like a fan in the stands. We've all lost it a few times when Will did stupid things. Or at least I have.

Re: Thank You Rocket
My wife and I are p1ssing ourselves laughing...but that is NOT someone who is in control, or making good decisions in that frame of mind.
But. I hope there is a lot more of that audio that makes it out.

Sounds like the hard edge coach GVGjr wants at the club.

Re: Thank You Rocket
At the end “F%#^* you, you big shithead .... F#%*% him”
Yep. That is not a man in control. Completely lost the plot. Is that a normal coaching box sample? Or is that the exception? What game is it? Is the 2009 prelim?

What ever game it was, it was very funny.

Yep. Although I hope it wasn't a prelim, I hope it was a dead rubber pre-season game.

Re: Thank You Rocket
Different era, different times. Rocket was probably meek and mild compared to the coaches in the past.

Re: Thank You Rocket
The 'big shithead' comment got me. He spoke for all us who no doubt had similar feelings towards Minno at times.
Hilarious.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Getting the most out of Rocket. No doubt he's not only not really contributing much in his rage at Minson but the other coaches are clearly distracted as well. God I'd hate to be in that box
