It's pretty dumb though.
I don't think Sam Whitelock looks particularly professional with his shaggy hair and beard, but who's going to tell him he needs to clean up his image?
I agree with Slim's earlier point that there's a difference between having long hair and having a stupid haircut (i.e. Quade early on).
There is truth in managing perceptions and if you are seen as not acting professional enough or serious about your career.

It's one of those things where if Thorn is getting great results no one questions it, "it's helped create a great team culture etc." but when it's only been an underwhelming season people are more sceptical.
I think this is where he is getting his inspiration

If I was a hairdresser, this would be my favourite forum.
No wonder the Reds are struggling, with a fan base like this.

I tried to not let it get to me, but this has really bugged me. Surely we have bigger fish to fry than have this become a thing?
Is the length of of a players hair really that important? I don't understand how this can impact his game and improvement as a footballer or a being a good person. Maybe if Tate was working in the business sector he may look out of place...
We know the kid can play, that's what got him in there in the first place (with long hair). Can't we just let him (and other players) express himself in whatever way he pleases providing it's not hurtful to others?

I would suggest it is a metaphor on attitude, like Hollaway going to the S&C looking to do extras for the Tahs, attitude is king, buckle down, do the work and demonstrate your want to get there

Plenty of homeless people and bums wear suits in winter (and even in summer)
They don't look too professional to me.

We probably should start at 2019 thread but it looks like Sef is leaving.
looking
Bloody shame that.Quality bloke. Lad has been given a rough time in 2018. No wonder he is going !
Have also heard of another couple of senior players (other than the ones already going like Lance and Kane) who will be looking for RELEASES from contracts.
Thorn is not cultivating culture - irrespective of the things he says he seems to be destroying it.
People need to separate the player from the coach. One was very good, the other much less so !

Ehhhh tis a shame - yes he was the '5th' prop, but perfect as such playing both sides. Losing him and Slipper, odds on Thorn promoting an U20 player as the 5th prop (probably EPS)?
Which, if any, U20 Reds props made a good showing for themselves for the AUS U20s?
