GWS have a large amount of money to lure Buddy.Franklin,Patton and Cameron.How does that sound for starters at the Neeshies!!!Not a bad attack.They have signed all those they are keeping.They have weaned out those they don't want to keep.They have money in store.Make no mistake they will be a force very soon.
The Suns have as I said before re-signed the vast majority of their young players so not much threat.They are playing a very hard attacking style of football at the moment.They will be a force.
you have to look ahead not at what they are doing right now.What they are doing right now is very impressive,but down the track it will be even better.
A/man they may well have re-signed most of their players for generally another couple of years. I am talking about when they are getting to be around 23-25 years of age. In most clubs you have a staggered age group consisting of some older players and some younger players; what GWS and Gold Coast will have is a group of players who, in the main, will be the same age and as such when they get to their peak earning capacity they will have a significant number together which will presumably preclude those clubs from paying what they would get in the open market.
Specifically with respect to the GWS I wonder whether some of those players will also be lured by the prospect of playing in front of significantly larger crowds than what they would if the continued to play for GWS.
