David Parkin Quotations

He's had a horrific run with injury, and now he's missing more games. I don't know whether that's too smart in your developmental years.

He has shown enormous personal attributes and the professional competence which is needed to do the job well, so I think he would be an outstanding choice if they can convince him to do the job. But he either wants to do the job or not and I don't think you can force people to go down that road.

He's a terrific young bloke, but he might suffer the consequences of his father's white-line fever,

Unless they change the rules, he won't be playing much footy at all.

I saw the game, and there's no doubt he lost total control. It's a real worry,

Another instance, whether in six months or two years, will only reinforce what's already happened,

That is very sad for a kid who needs to be playing footy,

The coach is pretty confident about where he sits and what he needs to do. I heard a presentation he made recently about the club's future. It was very impressive. He's got a fantastic plan and he'll stick with it.
