And GCS have told Lynch to immediately step down as captain. Getting nasty.
I can just tell that if Gold Coast folded the AFL website would have a headline of "SUN sets on the Gold Coast".
"Tom Lynched"
Gold Coast have demanded Tom Lynch immediately step down as captain.

Don't see why this is seen as a problem as it's common practice in the business world. A person who may have an impact on the business (sales rep, sales manager etc) are always immediately terminated when they give notice. Happened to self and when a rep gave notice when I had an industrial distribution business.

That aside, how the **** can the AFL justify the Sun's remaining, especially considering the dilution of genuine elite talent is so obvious throughout the AFL.

and that he will no longer be involved in their footy program, pathetic attitude by the footy club. Must make Steven May (and all their other good players) want to sign extensions and hang around.

Players association needs to get involved here.
Suns were demanding a decision from him.
Meanwhile clubs meet in secret to talk trades.

What does it matter if he remains Captain or not, he is injured, not playing the rest of the season and I am sure that he wouldn't be present at the best and fairest to deliver the Captain's speech.

The AFL did sanction free agency did they not? Be careful what you wish for.
Well it’s achieved half their aim - getting players back to ‘THE CENTRE OF THE SPORTING UNIVERSE!!’. They just didn’t expect it to happen so much from their pet projects (or the likes of Port to do so well from it).

Lol @ the Crows home base bring in the middle of a demolition and construction zone with AAMI starting to be obliterated today.

Try as they might they'll never be able to remove the stench of Football Park from their very being. It's their home, who they are.

At least the Gold Coast get a compo pick. The problem is Gold Coast is a place nobody wants to be at.
Two picks, likely to be 2 and 3. Ask to be traded in 3 years time.
Trade for a gun. No one wants to go, or you get someone that just decides that the Karmicheal Hunt approach is best.

So, Carlton get a priority pick...
GCS get at least 1 and probably 2 compo picks for Lynch...

No way Luko OR Rankine slide to the Cows pick!
