            Yeah - and never change mate.

            We need some optimism at the moment.

                        Wow. That is woeful. I know there is no excuse for that low of a rating. Do we think the weather played a role?

                            No we have to be positive and upbeat otherwise we just give up. There is absolutely no middle ground.

                                            Giving up or not really trying?

                                                            The lack of effort was my main take away from Sunday... To serve up that shit after a fairly tumultuous pre-season was concerning to say the least.

                                                            I care less about the result if it looks like all the players are rowing in the same direction.. however too many played like they don't care which was the same as it was at the start of 2023 and it put us on the back foot from the get-go.

                                                            The eyes of the footy world are on us and a repeat performance in terms of effort means Bevo needs to go now.
