Still can't work out the difference between my comment and yours. You have used words that I haven't. That word being "deliberately". I never used that word. I said they have thrown matches through underperformance. You agree that they may not have played with the energy or urgency or efficiency you would expect of a first grade player. Sooooo I'll ask again. Did they take the field without the energy, urgency or efficiency of a first grade player and EXPECT to win a game? I couldn't give a rats ass if the players read this thread and cry themselves to sleep. Play to your ability and avoid the criticism.
The above article indicates that all but possibly two players interviewed lost faith in Brennan. So is that an excuse for performances like we have had to sit through, where, in your words, they lacked energy, urgency and efficiency?
