Ernie has done wonders with the team this season and I think he deserves a lot of credit. This time last year we were last.
I wanted to 'this' this, but I thought about how I've felt messed around as a fan for the last couple of months and I can't quite bring myself to say that Ernie's wonders shouldn't be balanced out by our poor options, odd selections and poor individual and team performances.
I mean, if Ricki was still here and starting Lia in an elimination final, I imagine there would be a few choice words. That said, I feel I must rescind my post game anger and the suggestion he should pack his bags. Still it would have been interesting to see what Ricki would have got out of this squad, apart from a fair few more cards over the season, you'd think!
