Our list changes for 2013

Re: Our list changes for 2013

What a refreshing article on Sherman. No histrionics, no blaming others for his predicament......just an honest admission that he didn't perform to expectations. Many have bagged Sherman the player but I give him enormous credit for his mature outlook on his delisting.

Great article, I wish Shermo all the best.

Agree in part. But did he have any choice but to say what he said especially considering no club is interested in him?

I'm sure we saw a very similar article at the start of this year by the same jurno, claiming he will work hard etc, etc due to his indescretion in 2011. But alas it was pretty much what he does best - talk.

Did he have a choice? I gues he could have gone down the line that he wasn't given opportunities, the coach and he didn't see eye to eye, he wasn't given great support, etc.
He didn't so I'm happy to give him some credit. Not sure what it has to do with his previous statements about completely different topics.

And if he had've gone down the track of blaming others his chances of being picked up would go from 50% to 10%.

Topics are different of course, but the statements are very similar. In both articles he talks about how he needs to be more consistent at a day to day level etc to get the most out of himself.

Hopefully it finally sinks in and he can re-continue his career somewhere down the track.

He had the chance to play the role of the victim and to say that he wasn't able to produce his best because of the coach etc but instead he gave an honest appraisal that he didn't live up to his potential.

Aker never acknowledged his role in his dismissal from the club.

Hope he finds a good spot.

At least he said thanks to us for giving him his break. More than Aker ever did.

Aker sure I can understand he was disappointed when he was sacked by us but he should have been more grateful that we took him in. There were other reasons apart from what he said on the radio as to why he was sacked.

That look like Altona Pier to anyone else?
