    That's the best 5 minutes I've ever invested. God I hope we can keep the list together, there's something special about these kids.

    Hard to believe they all play for us isn't it?

    The trick will be to keep them all together long term here at the club.

    Success would help, but we have now seen both sides of the dollar incentive. Evidently contracts mean nothing these days.

    Will the Tom Boyd deal come back to haunt us ?

    The Stringer and Bonti show.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    If the Tom Boyd deal comes off for us he'll be a very very big part of why these guys will want to stay together.

    When you have Stringer, Bonti, MacRae, Liberatore and Boyd as your immediate first tier ready to go in two years, plus the development of Wallis, Hrovat, Roughead, Dahl and some others also looking like they could step up (plus the fact we're not based in Western Sydney) it's hard to think why players would want to leave for success...........
