Hi everyone. Boy what a hectic time!! Yes I have created some controversy with my article but I can't stand around and cop the personal attack about my coaching, my processes or how I manage the team. The media propanganda was all designed around bringing down our great Queensland team. I have no problems with the use of the media with instilling the passion back into their players and supporters. I love the banter between the states, its great for the game, as long as its above the belt and its not a personal attack. I certainly never made or will make comments about individuals but it has eroded my faith in where the game is going!!!
I love the game BUT there is a belief that I am expendable in the overall big picture plans. Moving forward, our code's future depends on teams like Queensland that displays the traits and humility that Rugby League should be praising not breaking down. I want to play a part in the future of our game but after recent events it makes it very hard!!!!
Again thanks for your support. We are truly blessed to witness such a great Team perform in what is one of the hardest sporting arena in the world...
