The heard of Elephants in the room. I sort of admire them with Politis's endless flow of cash but then remember that we have a bloke that actually owns 50% of us and has more money then him but chooses not to spread his !!
This is an obvious but overlooked issue that the media does not care about. And us fans seem to gloss over too. With supposedly so much cash, why can’t we have the best facilities. The best in media and marketing. We should have plenty in TPA options with the business links the WIN Corp has. No matter how you slice it, the Club is in so much disarray it’s not funny.

The Gordons would still be sorely pissed off

& more than a bit humiliated

about having to come to heel & abandon their favourite son.

Reassessing their wounds & in a FU mode?

... looking for a new Plaything I’d say

Meanwhile last big name star pre-retirement contracts should be looked at and splitting salary and the promise of post playing club employment
Cronk & SBW earn 6 figure sums post football in coaching halves and ambassador roles respectively
All clubs are trying to do it.
Tigers with Farah got exposed but cant remember how
The sooner they have an independant player rating revised annually and a cap for that the better otherwise it will never be an even playing field

Good points BLM01, however with the Gordon family's media interests in WIN and the Nine and Ten Networks, I would think that there would be many post playing career opportunities that could be presented (legally) to elite players considering a change of clubs.
