TOPIC:

Personally I'm rapt that Earl Spalding has been reappointed for another year, possibly two. I reckon that is the right call despite there being plenty of work to do to retain, recruit and retool with a better system of forward entry.

As he said, the recent history has been improvements followed by more failure. Good to see Robbie Wiley back at the club - just keep him away from the coaches box and we'll be right. Good to see some other old boys getting involved again as well. Let's not waste this momentum.

Spot on Dazzler.
Not only have some old faces reappeared but some with very successful business behind them.
Earl just needs to obtain and take advice in the box.
We need to up the anti with helpers around on match day.
Some are unqualified and been there too long. IMHO

Having someone with the profile of Bob Shields as prez would have encouraged those past players to get back involved, Bob's been so successful on and off the field, he will attract good people to the club.

I'm glad Earl has been reappointed. His summary of the last three years regarding quarters and games won looked fairly hopeful. Continued form and effort from our best 10, big jumps in our next tier and 2 very good big bodies that have a killer instinct still necessary. I would also like CJ to go around again

Spot on SS.
A new era has dawned and his chance to make a difference is no longer delayed.
Very timely with the new premises looming.
His property expertise will be invaluable.

Oops i got that one wrong but i don’t mind him staying on. Just as long as certain others are moved on

Some of the people around him need to go.
I am sure the Prez knows who he needs to surround him with.

if someone could post the article that appeared in today’s West it’d be much appreciated.
