From my external observation Brian Lake has been acting like a pampered prima donna and a straight talking asst coach came out and told some home truths about him. I hope the new coach does likewise.
I hope Paul can convince Briza of his worth to the team, and they can get him fit and firing for 2012. As for the "Brian the Forward" thing, to me, it's clutching at straws. He's a natural FB, and on song is arguably the best one going. Put him back there, and throw him forward at times to test the opposition/keep them guessing.

For all the talk about Lake not being a hard worker, I can't even imagine having to take a suppository before training. I'd want a mini pre-season too.
Maybe that's why I'm not in the AFL.
There are not too many lazy two time all Australians..........
My boss told me today that last year Brian was booked in to have his operations by the club but told the club he would not be having the ops at that time because it would effect his holidays and he didn't want to be doing recovery on his holidays. He told the club he will be having the operations when he got back from holidays and the club was very against this as I would be.
I told my boss that I didn't believe that to be true as I had not heard this before but he assured me this was true. Can someone please verify this story.
