HTFU

All Blacks and Black Caps today whimper about pressures, burnout and their problems with the coach. They should be grateful they never had to endure a harangue from AFL coach Ron Barassi back in his prime.

Today, he’d probably be up on a charge.

  1. One can learn something everyday. I was schooling up on Denmark and its currently renown capital city the other day and I find that AFL is followed/played in Denmark by a greater number than any other non English-speaking country. This assumes that Australia is an English-speaking country.

  3. Trouble today's sportsmen would either sulk, laugh or hit him - let alone take any advice or criticism on board.

  4. I have no idea what he's talking about, but it is fantastic.

    We should get him for the next Libz conference.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
