    Rather see a player being confident than the other way around.
    I think it's best for players to leave team analysis to the coaches, and stick to basic comments like "can't wait to get out there, we're gonna have a real crack at them" etc, etc. That's much safer than letting the other side know we fancy our chances against them. Things like that can end up motivating the other side.

        To be honest I'm sick of the cliche riddled crap we get from players these days. Be nice if we got players saying what they think for a change. Last week in the NRL we had a Penrith player come out and say that he hated Parramatta. Absolutely loved it. Penrith went on to smash Parra so the remark certainly didn't motivate Parramatta at all.

            Well, if O'Keefe comes out before the Collingwood game and says something similar, you won't get any disagreement from me. That sort of "red meat" comment from the players is fine.
