Talk about having an axe to grind...

Starts with ‘...footy’s $200m disaster club...’ and degenerates into listing social media posts.

Agenda driven crap.

Not to mention the delightful history lesson to finish up...

“Launched in 2011 under the guidance of a first-time coach Guy McKenna, rookie captain Gary Ablett, untried football boss Marcus Ashcroft and novice chief executive Travis Auld, the badly under-resourced Suns were forced to operate out of portable tin sheds for the first seven years.”

First-time, rookie, untried, novice, under-resourced....

Title: Outrage over Club’s Euro Junket
Opener: A major scandal erupted today as the AFL discovered... [click here to read more]

Behind the paywall, article continues:

... that nearly a half dozen officials from the Gold Coast Suns jetted out to Europe just days after the Grand Final, on an all-expenses-paid “study tour”.

Fans were left outraged when they discovered that despite the club’s woeful performance in 2018, leading figures from the club were spending two weeks in France and Germany supposedly visiting leading football clubs to investigate high performance coaching strategies and recovery techniques.

“I’m disgusted” said one fan, BigDong6000.
