  I dunno about who our trainers will be, but I know one thing for sure, we simply cannot continue to waste our salary cap money, time & resources, and a top 30 spot on Kaysa Pritchard beyond this year.

  It's over Kaysa. Sorry mate, but we just can't do it again. Not with a spine player who's supposed to handle the ball more than anyone and create for their team rather than putting their team on the back-foot not just in the game he gets injured in, but for the duration of his recovery.

  If you love the club, (which I'm sure you do) you'll put the club first and move on. But if you can't get a contract elsewhere, or don't wanna go to the ESL, then you'll have to accept a Wenty contract and that's ONLY if you're not keeping a promising youngster from developing with us.

    He is probably the most unlucky player going if it wasn’t for injuries he would be up there but saying that any player can and will get injured.

  That Cameron Smith has been blessed in his career hasn't he? He's barely had any serious/long-term injuries. I reckon it's because of his high profile that opposition forwards are too scared to really smash him in tackles because they'd get a more hefty suspension. The media scrutinize foul play committed on high profile players. Either that, or it's because he always has support runners outside both shoulders and he's got the "Triple threat" skill set to run himself, pass, or place any type of kick through for his outside men to chase through.

      Gower has been one of our best this year. When interviewed he certainly has it upstairs when it comes to footy and would be fit.

      McGregor was a trainer. Alfie is one etc.

      Gower has a better footy brain than our current coach imo.

      Yeah yeah so too do most under 12’s etc.
