Agree. They'd be better off getting in 5-6 22-27 year old players who give there all and train hard. Target a bunch of Kane Lambert types and some senior heads like Mundy to set the standard for the kids and change the culture.And that would help them how?
The only way they change, is by having a cultural shift where players want to go there.
Brisbane did it perfectly, getting in Neale, Lyons, Hodge, Cameron, and now their young guys want to be there too on the back of the strong culture and bonds.
You give the Gold Coast early draft picks.. they'll just leave in 3 - 5 years anyway.
