With the current situation great opportunities emerge.

One its a great opportunity to improve our list in the draft. Its a great opportunity to sure up RFC's future.

I really think we need to play Gold Coast in Cairns again while we are in a bit of a slump and we should go to China to and tackle the Asian Tiger!!!

We have locked in our coach, now we just need to sure up our financial security before the financial crisis re-emerges on the back of Kochy!!:D

AFL HQ can use our club song and attractive colours to draw the Chinese in to our wonderful game and boost our online presence!

I just think the odds are in the next few years we will be going through a trough.

We can't be just relying on revenue from gates not making finals.

I don't buy the rhetoric.

If we are taking a few steps back to go forward in a bigger way we may as well look for synergistic options to boost our overall performance off-field despite not making finals such as going to China and Cairns.

I can't see the point of BRIS, GOLD COAST, GWS going to China as they need to develop their regions if they are even going to stay alive.

Better for AFL HQ to use a quality club brand with a club that has a strong club song, strong colours, will last to get Chinese people interested in the game. Despite going through a slump we can still be competitive with Port in China and have enough draw cards in JR, Lids, Cotch, Dusty etc.. with exciting youth so we can sell a good brand for the AFL in China to boost the clubs prospects long term going forward.

I am not buying Gale has unfinished business at RFC. Frankly I think he needs to pull the finger out and not act like a suck! He turned down the league job, now he needs to show how he can make the club stronger. For starters playing in China and Cairns for the next few years should do this. Stop living in the past and bring the club forward into the future FFS!

We have enough teachers on board to teach them!

I thought our supporters could need new sources for an investment boost?

The fact is the Tiger is an attractive emblem in many areas of the world including Asia and needs to be drawn on to seek mutually beneficial gains for all stakeholders involved IMO. I have seen Tigers in China!

We can help China, they can help us, some have decent coin these days, whats the problem? China is in our time zone, its a good market to tap into IMO, Turnbull thinks so to!!!

Would not surprise me AFL HQ was not twisting RFC's arm to get involved in the China match as every body knows we have the best song, with the best jingle, we have the best colours/design and have some star players to to show off the game plus the Tiger link people in Asia would be associated with. China in a similar time zone, I would surprised if AFL HQ was not doing everything possible to lure us into the China match given our clubs attractiveness and ability to draw fans in due to our entertainment and all encompassing popular factors that transcend any cultural/geographical obstacles!

More exposure by us in China and Asia should mean more international sponsors like Jeep to naturally to boost our capability going forward!

Players can be part of a historic match and something to work towards while we develop over the longer term. I think it would be a smart move to strength the club and its prospects over the journey frankly!

India would be good too. They have an affinity with Tigers and already have the cricket ovals there to play on. And the've also got a huge
sport crazy population, even if it is just cricket atm
