"My dad once said that any footballer player or coach can have a good season, but it takes a different kind of focus to be great throughout his entire career. The goal of any athlete, coach, etc should be sustained excellence. He also taught me that in business, the same rule applied."
What I take from this is, don't make stupid, rash statements that you can't keep. I can't think of any other club making such a futile claim. The executive is as much to blame or more so than Roly yet they sit their in ivory towers seemingly above any criticism.
If you didn't expect to be a continued finalist like Sydney, Geelong, Hawthorn or the slime then imo you are far too easily pleased and part of the poor old Freo scenario. We dropped quicker than any side in VFL/AFL history and I don't give a rat's a*se who the coach is or was it's not bloody good enough.
No big threat or improvement this year and Roly has to go. End of story. And if that slimy band of CEO's and smug executive had any scruples they would do the same. (Ha, keep dreaming)
