Message: [QUOTE="MGP, post: 2410195, member: 1858"] My take on this (and I'm not Frank-bashing, just observing) is that he's incredibly mentally weak. This is troubling in that the ability is there - when he's playing with confidence we see more or less what we've seen the first 7 games - but at the first sign of adversity or a couple mistakes, he goes into full meltdown mode, no middle ground. If he can't mentally tough it up and play through pressure/mistakes, it'll be very concerning going forward. We saw this to some extent last year, and he was relegated to the bench. This year, unfortunately, we have no other options. Sack up Frank, you're a junior - we need you. People can say 'H0T Takes" all they want - last night was pretty atrocious and if we have many more performances like that we'll be on the wrong end of many contests. Let's say I'm cautiously optimistic about Frank going forward, but I am weary that this is not a one game anomaly. [/QUOTE]
