    Very simple - it's an investment with an amount of risk. Nobody will twist your arm to do it and it is up to each family to weigh up whether it is worth that risk.

    I'm just thankful for all the dumb kids in public education who subsidise the smart ones.

    Glad their parents don't realise they get nothing out of it.

    I'd actually call it a 'sticker sheet'. 3 x stickers (I've only opened the young fellas junior pack so far. R. Griff is the main dude in all the photos and featured on the actual ticket. 'face of the franchise' perhaps?
    (tangent: sign his brother for ****s sake already).
    Keyring is a delightful metal one which is great for throwing at people, will do lots of damage.
    (or apparently you can put your keys on it).
    Fridge magnet is superb. Definitely in my top 3 fridge magnets of all time.
    Vouchers for cap and junior bag/water bottle. Will be great getting Plague junior to carry it in to each game filled with Vodka for dad.
    Great job club, merch is fantastic.
    Now sign Griff.

    I'd be interested in a few answers.....
    How many games in the average junior season?
    And how much is Rego?
    How much is a jets membership?
    How good are the coaches your kid currently trains with?

    12 months of football, so forget paying summer sport Rego....

    It might actually represent good value.
    considering the existing program is $475 for part time coaches for 25 weeks they now get the higher qualified coaches, a jets season ticket & a 40 week season, is it that much more then the current system, a system that from my understanding is being shut down by NSWIS. So its either this or nothing, with the added bonus of better coaches and season tickets & gear (not sure if the existing covered gear as well).

    Don't get me wrong the best outcome would be for it to be free, a more scholarship style system. But for me this is where supporters, corporate sponsors, Men of football grants or maybe even the supporters trust if it ever exists, can step up and say we'll raise some funds for a scholarship for a needy player, open submissions and select the the most appropriate player, hell call it the Griffo scholarship, instead of looking for the negatives we should try and look for some of the positives.

    Would be good if they could get ISC to up the quality of the kits a little uncomfortable to wear.

    Gonna throw this out there, Vincenzo Iaquinta on loan or maybe out of contract not sure ( conflicting articles in regards to his contract status). Known for his high work rate, team man and can score a goal or two. Oh and he is Italian, not that the herald is right.
