I respect the fact that many of you want to see Flanno (and the club for that matter) utilise our local juniors more. I get that. However, as it stands right now, I have followed this club for over 35 years, and have NOTHING to show for it. I agree that any club should show faith and develop local talent, but right now, for a club which has been in existence for as long as our Sharks have without success, I have no problems with us looking to more established and experienced players to get us a premiership sooner. Juniors are for our future, for sure. A premiership is for today, and you cant win a comp with juniors. We have waited long enough. When we win a comp, this experience will take our juniors to the next level. They will taste success, and chase success because it felt so good. Right now our juniors are aspiring to play for an average team, with average expectations. Lets win a comp first, by any means. Then give our juniors something to live up to.

Just my 2c worth.

I agree for the most part except that some of our junior players are superior options as is compared to their more experienced FG counterparts.
I.e. Ricky -> Wright
Liccha -> Morris and Degois

Keeping those more experienced players in the squad just doesn't add enough value to the team in the pursuit of that maiden premiership. BWB harps on about it but it takes the right mix of experience and youthful talent, not just one or the other

Oh for ****'s sake, would someone just name the player! Sick of all this cloak and dagger.

It's a rumour mill so don't worry if the signing doesn't come off.

Mate/Matess, no wonder you don't post too often.You actually know what you are talking about. Too much woofing in here from those that are so bitter and twisted about the club. Great post
