Not that great either.

Sounds like a lot of wallpaper over cracks.

God stuff like that sh!ts me. schoolyard mumbo jumbo about who likes who and who can work with who and only scant references to the great future we have before us - Murphy and Kennedy.

Why not a comment about the 10 talented youngsters we have all ready to take the next step in 2007...Walks, Simmo (already there), Jackson, Bower, Edwards, Raso, Setanta, Russell, Hartlett, Betts...

look they may have their doubts but the focus has to be on the future not some looks between ex-lovers!

i agree with Dane. They are out there on the last shot and whether people like it or not no clear articulated alternatives have been put forward by Brown or anyone

Yes, agreed, and I welcome the press - just the output of the Hun reads like we need these 4 to love each other to progress on-field. With our kids coming through plus more picks articles about us should be about 'new beginnings' and stuff like that.

No way. Get rid of them as soon as possible. No more wooden spoons and hopeless Boards. We simply can't afford another year like the last few. Hopefully Fraser has something brewing. Despite the de-stabilisation, the best way is to crash the lot and start again. These artilces are just for show for the press giving the pretence that things are ok. Useless if it's not the truth.

We need these 4 to love each other if we are to progress off-field. Of course, off-field is now just as important as on-field.

Molsey, this article need not be about the great kids we are developing. You don't have to write about the many facets of the club in the one article. We can have another article down the track on the kids.

I felt it was good that the 4 decided to show that they were united. They have earnt another chance with that front. There are no alternatives at this stage anyway.

I disagree mallee. They should be professionals and be able to work with each other regardless. but of course they aren't or don't appear to be - thus the need for a 'settling article' in the press. I wonder if this is the main story though?

Off-field is a hell of a lot bigger than 4 individuals. PP redevelopment, funding strategies (got 1 line)...which key people do they have..why the 2 new Coaches and in what role....this is where you grab the attention of the masses, not in hand holding of egos.
