    No Dear John letter for Mitch

    No Dear John letter for Mitch


    Jamie Pandaram
    December 22, 2008

    WESTERN FORCE coach John Mitchell has reaffirmed his commitment to the team following strong speculation he was being forced out by angry players, but admitted he may have to alter some training methods. "I have always had an honest and open relationship with the players, and nothing will change," Mitchell said. "Having said that, as a head coach you have always got to look to evolve, and I am always looking to evolve. I am contracted until June 2011, and I am totally committed to that contract - I will be meeting my obligations." Players have privately raised issues with Mitchell's direct style, but the former All Blacks coach said he had yet to be formally notified of any objection to him remaining in the top job. "Until somebody actually notifies you in writing about these issues, you can only continue as you have been. I have just moved past the first year of a new four-year contract - the previous three years are history." Mitchell said he would be present for the Force's first day of training next year, on January 5, "with bells on".

    "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa

    I'm pretty sure he is the result of an affair with Growden and Mrs Macs when the sausage roll wrapper broke.
