And I think, I mean, the rough percentage is probably 50-50.

And I always watch the big losses.

And we are lucky we get the press conferences from the AFL coaches.

I always watch the big losses with interest because I think coaches often make mistakes is when teams win, they say we won and when teams lose badly, they say they lost.

So I think you must accept responsibilities for the outcome and I think a coach should assume about 50% and then I guess you handle over the ownership to the players for the other 50%.

Yeah, so to be really open, what I talked about on Tuesday night was the part that I don't think on reflection that I organized enough practice games for our boys in the preseason.

I thought we missed the opportunity there.

I've probably accepted that the intensity of training has been below standards.

And I've probably accepted some behaviors and a bit of a cultural shift within the club.

And sometimes these are just little small changes which end up being quite big.

I also train as one club.

So we train every Tuesday and Thursday night with the seniors and the reserves and the under-19s all together, where potentially maybe we should have been focusing on just the – I'll just take the senior group, the reserves coach takes the reserves, and so on.

And I've got a very relaxed attitude.

How I coach is – not that I'm one of the boys, but I –

I like to have fun.

I like to have the enjoyment factor, and I'm not one of those authoritative type coaches that yells and screams.

But I also do think I haven't been giving feedback to the players as consistently as what I should be, and there would be some players that would say my relationship with them is not a strong one, as in there's just so many players, and you try to get to all of them, and there's probably been –

six weeks where I haven't spoken, you know, face to face with a lot of individuals.

So I also explained to players too, I've coached for 20 odd years and typically players, the feedback will be like, give me honest and open feedback, but not too harsh.

So about a seven out of 10.
