I think the AFL should be concerned about this, don't you?

Worse still, how many BigFooty posters seem to be Herald Sun subscribers.

Thanks for the virus OP.

Nothing story. Clubs do this sort of thing all the time.

It’s like some sort of “our taxpayer dollars!” crap, but it’s not taxpayers.

 

[Bulldog1954]

This story wouldn't have been written if it wasn't Gold Coast, it's a nothing story. If a story needs to quote people's friends comments on Instagram you know it's weak.

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....

 

[Luv_our_club]

Practically the only name i recognised in that story was Dew.

The group consists of senior coach Stuart Dew, football boss Jon Haines, deputy media manager Thomas Beverley, fitness boss Alex Rigby, assistant coach Ashley Prescott, Green and Pyle.

Amazed that the parasites at the Hun still have jobs.

I've seen some real petty swipes at the expansion clubs, but this is the most venal, petty swipe yet. I'm gonna print it and stick it on the fridge.

I reckon I could just write the same article anyway for the BF users without access. Like me.

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.

“High performance?! Someone is already high!” added user Cmgzzler99.

Meantime Port Legend Kane Cornes has demanded an immediate AFL enquiry.

More to follow.

Herald Sun not happy one of their reporters didn't get an invite?

 

[kid_a]

Suns should do some training camp in Scandinavia.
Danes are decent at footy, relatively, and the nords bloody love Australia

 

[Upgrayedd]

How does thast get published? It's not even a slow news day you have melbourne cup on.

They don't have much joy during the footy season. You gotta let the poor buggers have a little bit of fun!
