Sick of double standerds - doing hard yards every year and then mates get turkey slapped by Ray when he brings out lazy glory hunters late every season to take there spot. Shame job Jacksons,Wilson, Harris... Great team men hey!! No I in team but there is MEAT and thats how Ray treats his boys!
As with every coach, Ray Hayes is employed by Central Augusta with 1 objective, win premierships and he has delivered 4 GF’s appearances in as many years at the helm with 2 victories and missing out by the narrowest of margins (1point) 3yrs ago. During this time of course he is going to upset a few, unfortunately some players miss out when it comes to the pointy end of the season it happens in all team sports from the highest level to grass roots. Those players who unluckily miss out can go either way, get the sh!ts buy a tennis racket or golf clubs and go play an individual sport or bust their guts next year and prove the coach wrong. I don’t think it is the fault of the players that get selected in front of these guys to play either. Time will tell if Ray gets it right i spose.
Correct me if i am wrong Bush T but the point you are making is that the Centrals boys are in dismay at the selection process and the double standards the coach has with regards to his players.
I've heard in the past that some of these players are club stalwarts and Ray treats them with complete disregard. I have a mate that tells me that these senior players are not concerned with their own selections but their anger is aimed at the direction that Ray is taking the club. They believe that by allowing players to be selected in any team without attending any training or putting the time into the team during the year, the club/coach is sending the wrong message to the colts at the club.
For the record for any player to accept a position in these circumstances also needs to be given a reality check. It shows no respect to your team mates and does suggest as Bush T states they are glory hunters
The players that Tiger land is referring to might actually be looking at the bigger picture and are considering the clubs future and not themselves as suggested. From what i hear Ray is not a great coach and that the success of the Bloods is more due to the leaders on the team keeping things together.
Bush T any names of who may be up for grabs in 2012 recruiting personnel may be interested to here?
