I usually try to be nice but it literally blows my mind that some people can't see the direction the club is heading. We have literally signed most of the ousltstanding young talent coming up in both qld and nsw. We are recruiting youth not journey man. We are throwing our hat in the ring for some of the most dynamic young players in the game.
These have not happened for us in 10 years.
Stop thinking because we try and don't get its a failure. You can't force someone to play here but we are having a real shake.
The young talent is great - but guess what, they are unproven and just potential at this time.
And guess what, we have been a 'potential' side for too long. We keep waiting for this so called potential to be met, but it never does.
Understand that it's this frustration that is leading to this reaction.
We placed great offers to LM and JAC (both more than they got) and couldn't land them - so what does it say about star players perception of our club?
It says exactly what we know we are not a destination club. So how do you change that? New coach, tried that, new staff, tried that, new management tried that, new sponsors, tried that, new training set up, trying that.
So what's the answer all you amazing tacticians have, what's the answer? You all love a whinge find solutions. How would you have gotten jac over the line.

Nope. We know discards don’t work. Tried that plenty.
