Message: [QUOTE="heartly87, post: 3261408, member: 8651"] I think we have to realize that these kids these days have very little loyalty. We have to be active in the market and also offer these kids opportunity. You could argue we have actually been loyal to a fault, we flooded our team with them and watched it burn. We need to bring in experience, we also need to move on dead wood that hasn't worked out for us and that is exactly what we are doing. You also must show these kids that if they are prepared to test the market so are we, it what the Roosters do , its what Melbourne do and what we once did. You say look I am prepared to pay you this, let us know by then or we are going to the market. These kids have thought it a given result to be handed a contract, Dearden case and point. We have by all accounts only let 2 out of 3 who have walked go without an offer, and all of them wanted to go. I am glad Kev didn't over pay to keep any of them. We would be in the 5 year rebuild that was predicted, waiting on them to develop into first graders but instead we could be looking at Kev having the team top 8 competitive by next year. Who could have imagined that by May this year we could be thinking this team is actually going somewhere. Kev has been fantastic for this club, he is a very selfless man, doesn't care about how he looks, shows pride, gives the boys a tongue lashing when required and has set a standard. The guy is a Legend to be honest and I hope he jags a premiership for what he has done here in less then 12 months. With a few more key signs he may undo the predicted half decade of damage that Pies did. Fantastic really. [/QUOTE]
