Qualifying Final This arvo

Hey guys,

Just away from the mighty eels for a moment. Want to wish my son all the best in the qualifying final in soccer (yes soccer) this afternoon. As many of you may remember I coached him for over 10 years and made rep soccer after all people said park soccer players are not good enough. I never had the money to put him in expensive academies but hey. We got there. He is now in Premier League and his team finished undefeated minor prems.

My gut feel is that we’re more aligned up top than we’ve been for a long time, and that’s starting to filter through. That helps…"

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???

I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…
