Stoinis Vows To Revive Melbourne Stars’ Glory With Fresh Leadership
New Melbourne Stars: New Melbourne Stars captain Marcus Stoinis is ready to bring a fresh approach to the BBL franchise, which has faced years of near misses and lean seasons. Reflecting on the team’s history of falling just short in pursuit of the title, Stoinis believes an obsessive focus on the elusive championship derailed the team’s success during key campaigns.
Speaking at Junction Oval ahead of the season opener, Stoinis, a long-time Stars stalwart, admitted the franchise lost sight of its achievements in its desperation to secure a trophy.
“Us not winning the years where we were in the finals or around the finals and super competitive every year - we might have got too obsessed with the fact that we weren’t winning the final and forgot how much we were doing well,” Stoinis was quoted as saying by Nine's Wide World of Sports. “We probably tried to change too much ... in the chase of a title.”
