Offer them performance bonuses! Money talks baby.
Oh right, like in U/7s when the best player's daddy gives him 5 bux per try making him into a total ball hog but the highest try scorer every year in a failing team.

Tell me, if anyone normal even considered that would this go in the salary cap?

Haha, there's a kid in my son's under 9's soccer team who gets $5 per goal and he is the biggest hog ever.

I played with a kid like that. His dad was coach. He was being paid per try (probably a dollar in those days) and no one could get a run unless he was scared.
Me and my wife were saying (out of earshot of our son, what a hog he is), he's one of the son's best mates at school and he said a few weeks ago about the $5 per goal so it all made sense.

Sorry for going off topic everyone haha

got a kid exactly like this in my sons current team. Easy game he’ll go nuts and be a total hog. Mum buys him presents for good games. Hard games, doesn’t want a bar of it.

Just had dinner with someone very close to one of our Jets players.

Said they are all pretty much just playing for contracts elsewhere.

This was from someone who is Sharkie through and through.

There were whispers that reached me 3 weeks ago that all was not well. Am sworn to secrecy though

Not surprised at all to hear that, more chance of winning the lotto than getting into the first grade squad no matter how well you're playing.

Just reading Hannay is now linked with the Titans role for next season. Probably not a bad thing for us as we need to move away from the current set up

Our players are ageing. We should be bringing on Jets players or looking outside for younger guys.
Also our coach should have been doing this last season. We could have done better by them not renewing, now they are considered old with a new generation coming on. Perth is a long way off.

Maybe this has been floated before…

Theory relating to total dysfunction of the team:

The rest of the squad KNOWS that Nicho does not cut it as a chief playmaker, and has finally realised that nothing is going to change. They have therefore lost motivation and are not playing for their team-mates or the jersey.
