  • Good podcast

    With another coach moved on I think it’s time with some face to face with the ceo and board members so some tough questions can be asked of their failed leadership. Lost of fans have had a gut full of the meddling and poor decision making. Can’t recruit stars, can’t retain our great players and you run out of pies at WIN before the half break. In all seriousness I’d like to hear a couple of tough interviews with the decision makers of the club. Keep it up mate.
