    I think they have jumped at trying to get Bomber. The only trouble is Hird maybe out after tomorrow and Bomber will coach the Dons.

        The knock-on effect of a GCS offer to Thompson will bring this to a head in the next 24 hours. Hird will be gone by Friday night. And about time!

          If I was Thompson I would go to GC, new state, young players about to mature and out of the ongoing saga that is Hirdgate

              So Bluey got sacked because Gaz got injured. If Gaz stays healthy, the Suns make the finals and everybody is happy on the Gold Coast.

Maybe that was the problem, didnt want him to get into finals in the last year of his contract and feel obliged to extend his tenure.
                Is anyone seeing a pattern in the way players are starting to almost dominate the way clubs are being run?

                Suppose it's a result of players being able to move around more easily than they have in the past, though now it seems clubs are flinching pretty early in the piece when players start to get frustrated because things aren't going their way.

                Que the imminent Gen-Y bashing.

                  Some reports have suggested Gary Jnr had some issues with the coach.

                  If so, the board is concerned about the thoughts of this guy:

                  Remember Gaz, Planking's wanking.

                    In Ablett's final year, which also happened to be Thompson's final year, Thompson made a point of questioning Ablett's loyalty because he wouldn't sign, and compaing him to Selwood had no problem in signing. Ablett didn't like that, and apparently they didn't talk for most of that year.

                    Or are you talking about McKenna and Ablett?

                      McKenna and Ablett. Really though, I just wanted to link a picture of the latter being a try hard douche.

                        Is that him being a try hard or him doing exercise?

                          He was planking, when the planking craze was just about done. Just like any fad, as soon as AFL players are on to it you know it's out of style. Just like sleeve tatts.
