Okay so have more fully processed this signing and what it means.
I can't lie, I have wanted AFB here from the getgo, and have stated so, as I knew he was the key ingredient and formidable platform to build a new era for this Club around.
Also I have to confess to being a doubter about Coach Fitzgibbon, his vision , his persona , I doubted whether the Sharks had made the right call with him as Coach.
But after this coup , this whole process , the way it was handled and managed; the level of professionalism shown by the whole team who got this done, with the due respect it deserved.
I just wanted to say how my perception and the front office has changed and now I see that the Sharks imo, have arrived and are now major players in this League and are a force to be reckoned with.
This was all I ever wanted and feel over the moon, so bouyed by this pivotal play at this time in our history.
I am so on board now with how the Club having the foresight to sign such a classy, savvy Coach and now I feel I can relax and trust the process and know the Front Office and the Head Coach are playing a long game and mean to put this Club where it deserves!
I am not ungrateful for the years that produced a Trophy long overdue for this club, but now I feel the media and outside doubters might give us the respect this Club deserves!
On the whole, this is a pinch me moment, all my aspirations and excitement for this Club, makes this Holiday Season beyond special, this is a cheerful season and I feel a spirit of this Club giving beyond my hopes and dreams, a gift for the ages.
