Gee pal, I don't think citing Johnson and Shaw does your argument any favours. Johnson particularly was at the end of his career and unwanted by anyone else. Shaw was a similarly hard sell. Both had few to nil other options. Not citing them as best drafted in talent. They were the 2 I could picture...

Oh dear . I'll explain it once again for the other mentally challenged southerner . Your mate says there's no prob retaining players in SYD . I say why then do they have to give them extra $$$ to stay..Cola in another form You come along & say THIS IS AN ATTEMP BY THE AFL TO KEEP PLAYERS IN SYD...

Nice rant .but you avoided my question . Lol As most fumblers do. Then deflect by asking a question . I asked first ..so when you have the balls to answer mine I'll answer yours If you mean about the COLA or whatever it is now. I don't know. I don't pay attention to it and haven't really heard it m...

The Storm dont have an issue with getting players to there club. they have a Feeder club on the Sunshine Coast.. and they use to have a feeder club on the central coast of NSW. and players were happy to go to Melbourne and focus on football to get away from the media spot light. never really heard ...

Deflection alert. . Address my post Why do Syd stil need cola/retention allowance if getting players to stay is not an issue . I don't know why I'm buying into this. There really is no retention issue there at Sydney whatsoever. Quite the opposite if anything. I don't have the Melb-Syd rivalry thin...

That is what is Wrong with GWS AND SUNS>> there is no local talent in the club... more so the same with the Melbourne Storm I love the idea of the club talent being local. Players playing for the teams' they supported and all that. Not that it works, but I can't see a way other than a draft in the ...

Lol they still have cola under another name to keep people there .
So it is an issue these days or they would not need it.
Lol fumblers the best comedians around .
So keep ranting it's hilarious .

I genuinely hope for your sake you're in a room all by yourself with no sharp things

Are you going to educate me on AFL player retention? Do you actually know anything about your own game or do you just spit useless dribble about AFL?. Picturing a 50yo troll living at Mum's with you, eating cheetos off your chest. It's phenomenal how confident some can be about something they know n...

The "homesick factor" is particularly a QLD thing. The players, kids in particular, just don't wanna move to GC or Brisbane. The 'footballing states' don't have the same issue to the same extent. Sydney may not care about football but the city is relevant so player retention isn't an issue...

will be interesting to see who gets in first.. Both codes will want there game running well and rating well.. interesting the AFL wanted it lined up with the NRL TV Deal.. but YES! I would say the networks paid that little extra to secure the AFL for an extra Year.. does make the NRL deal look even...

Yep if they can't fix the ugly mess that has caused the ratings to dive & the ch 7 boss to ask for rule changes then they will not get an increase . GIl the dill has to try to change the game yet the fans are up in arms about leave the game alone Lol he will go for the $$$$ The fans are up in a...

majority of the clubs own grounds have a capacity of around 18k to 22k (which is quite decent for a rectangle ground) Parramatta will have the highest with there brand new stadium sitting at 30k At current Canterbury Parramatta Souths Tigers St George exited this last year and returned to there hom...

not so much the errors or small knock on's more play around the ruck tackles in detail, short balls, grounding of the ball.. at the ground much of everything looks ok. until you see it on T.V Tv Picks up attention to detail it is like that with alot of sports, but in my opinion more so in the Rugby...
