Will Merrick turn us into a bunch of hacks like Kevin Muscat?

I don't think he will, but it's a fair question.

Under his reign Victory were well known for their "gamesmanship".

This culminated in Muscat's awful tackle on Adrian Zahra.

While Merrick was not directly responsible for Muscat's behaviour, he must have condoned it to some degree.

Personally I'm glad the era of A-League thuggery epitomised by Kevin Muscat and Danny Tiatto has ended, and I wouldn't want the Nix to be responsible for it going back that way.

I used to think you were pretty funny but not so much these days. I would say Manny Muscat and Tim Brown have been far more 'dirty' than anyone else we have ever had.
