I agree with you for a change MM, but why the hell was this not out in the open when it first came to light Griff was flying the coup. Its the secret society tactics at HSG that shits most people and would have put this whole Griff drama to bed pretty quickly.Originally Posted by militiamon
To be fair, good on Gary coming out and facing the questions.
And cheers Grimario for copying the questions and responses!
Three parter
If there is no room for sentimentality in sport, why did the Jets release Ryan Griffiths on a free transfer considering he was still contracted?
Gary van Egmond: No there isn't, but to have a player remain at the club that would be upset and disgruntled at having been denied the opportunity to secure his family's future would have in no way been beneficial to the club.
Gary van Egmond: That's all we have time for. I want to that all the Members and supporters for their input and questions. Apologies again for not being able to get to all of them.
I look forward to seeing you all at Hunter Stadium on Friday night to support the team and be our 12th man.
Thanks again,
Gary.
Bah, third part wasn't really required.
Didn't answer two of the Members questions.
Didn't answer my question about active support or one about responsibility of player recruitment and who is to "blame" for signing players that he deems not good enough like Bernardo.

I do what I do because I want everyone to come and play disc golf
Ha ha I reckon I've probably run past you guys of an arvo - always see people down at Jesmond Park course!I do what I do because I want everyone to come and play disc golf
I agree with the egg on this one. His brother did the same thing, and we all know how that turned out...
to be honest i was expecting something like this
Then stop by one time and have a throw. There can't be too many Grimario's in a group of disc golfers...
Back on topic, GVE out.
Remembered what my other question was... I asked something along the lines of "Given RM's recent comment about finals football being the clubs goal for this season, would missing out on the top 6 be considered a failure? If that happened, would you consider your future with the club or would you work with the coaching staff to identify where it had gone wrong and fix it before next season"?
Dutchy's Golden Army
I think GVE has made it clear that the failures of the club this year are because the players not good enough and don't follow his instructions.
Blame the players not him.
GVE in.
GVE - taking on the big questions. like a seasoned pro
GVE in.
If that was the case with Ryan then I agree with GVE, you can't have your cake and eat it too.
He would remember when Joel went to Japan with GVE's blessing , got injured then came back and worked on getting a gig in China.
Playing 12-15 months straight is lunacy, no matter what the money is.
Note - that is if this is true...
Thanks Grimario for asking. Shame Jets picked that question to answer I didn't really need to hear Eggs response to it coz I knew what it would be.Sorry Member, looks like only one of yours got answered
Would have loved to him answer my question on Kale. Would have been priceless to hear if he had of critiqued the weaknesses of a yoof team player on an internet Q and A to a nobody from Joe Public's question.
Would be much better holding this shit when we haven't had a 5-0 loss 2 days earlier. Decent questions can be asked and good discussion points missed when the masses of insanity email in
Probably didn't answer the Kale question because he had to go research who he was! Not among his favourite children.
The Favourite children who don't listen to him, by his own admission, or are they all not "his players" still.
Think GVE needs to put his kids in the naughty corner.
It's been well documented in the last month or so that GVE prefers to have his CB pairing as one left-sided player i.e Mitchell or Ritter and one right-sided player i.e Chapman or Regan. I am baffled as to why he perseveres with playing Goodwin (a natural left-sided player) on the right!!! Goodwin is most effective when he plays wide on the left where he has space to use his skill and speed rather than cutting in from the right into cul-de-sacs.
Agree.To me its alright for your left and right flank players to interchange every now and then...maybe if the left sider takes an inswinging corner on the opposite side he remains on that side for maybe 1 or 2 plays so as to not lose shape.But to start this way and persevere with it all game tends to become pretty predictable.
I hope he likes prison food.......and penis
Damn missed this.... Needed to know when Jonny griff was getting signed
Fuxxing hell, thanks for the championship gaz, but it's time for us to move on.
Okon in.
