I'm really looking for stability over everything else, as the club will go backwards if we destabilise. The club is in good financial shape, which has taken a while and was only done with prudent financial practices. This is financial stability the club has never had and should now see the club spen...

Another guy with a lot of potential, but is risky to sign up due to his injury record, we just can't build a strong team with players who can't stay on the track for the best part of a season.

Like RB or not, stability is one key to success, try and deny that. And it is not unusual for members of any board to disagree with direction by CEO,s chairman, presidents and want to leave the board - why is that a big problem with some supporters, I don't know. I'm sure the extra expenditure the b...

Who are Westaway's sponsors who are all lined up ready to come on board??.. he won't name them because it's all just talk to suck in the gullible hoards who need to blame someone after we just missed the finals - if you believe him you will probably buy the Sydney Harbour Bridge of a bloke at the pu...

RB and board are running the club, got the club in good financial shape and ready for a big 2008. Westaway and his ego-driven crowd are challengers who are destabilising this club -let 'em wait and don't be sucked in by yet another potential board offering gold at the end of the rainbow.

Williams is a top coach and an expert in player development. I disagree about GT developing Roo, NDS especially as I think NDS made little progress under GT, we just saw his natural skill, but in three seasons he hasn't gone the expected next step. Roo would have been a star regardless. I think Ball...

I hope RL and the recruiting team look out for another strong, tough half forward as that's one of the things we missed this year.

NDS has stood still in his development for a couple of years.. until he learns to put four quarters together and works harder on his defensive game, he wont be mentioned in the same breath as other elite midfielders- fantastic talent, but in 2008 needs to go the next step.

I think our supporters/members have been passionate, but lethargic for decades. We have to start demanding of the club, success and stability and demanding strongly. The years of watching members be satisfied with a good peformance in losing, sticks in my mind -that mindset has gone towards instabil...

Apart from RB being a motor-mouth and having an ego bigger than John Howard, I see no real reason to chuck out the current mob..I feel the future is looking good and I have faith in RL.

Pity..Banfield is better than a lot of coaches going around and it's a shame that he had to try and mould a team around a bunch of disinterested Saints players -especially during GTs time.

Bomber is not pulling all the strings at Geelong as coach after Costa's review earlier on, but anyway, I think they have managed injuries beter than us over the last few years and developed younger players better -something GT forgot about.
