    I think he was deemed expendable given he was on good money and we had others who can play his role going forward.

    Yes, it would seem that's the case, George was on (and still is on) good money. The money we've spared will go to good use no doubt.

    All opinions are not equal. Some are a very great deal more robust, sophisticated, and well supported in logic and argument than others. -Douglas Adams, author (11 Mar 1952-2001)

    Isn't this largely a rehash of a Caroline Wilson article last year? Sure, he's got some additional internal docs, but the bad behaviour at Sorrento and need for counsel was well chronicled by her. Though Gil comes out of it looking like an interfering prude. Gil really is such an average doofus.

    Anyway, Goodwin could probably be caught with hookers and an ice pipe and it wouldn't matter, given he's a premiership coach.

    Although, I wouldn't really mind Goodwin being caught with hookers and an ice pipe. I mean, it should increase the value of our first round pick tied to Melbourne.

    Depends. It might be what he needs to unwind. But I like your singular focus on our draft position.

    It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if this was leaked last pre season. Nothing will happen to Goodwin now after the premiership win. It could have been a sliding doors moment.

    Yes, but it would descend into a scandal obsessed media pack, outside Goodwin's door, baying for his blood. Which probably wouldn't be all that relaxing?

    Gil calling someone else out for being drunk is rich. Even though he holds it together when drunk he has most certainly been under the influence in more than one presser. Certainly been under the influence while at football functions. Hates a red I'mtols

    Drunk or sober, you wouldn’t know with Gil. The same stupid, senseless dribble comes out of his mouth no matter what.

    It has been reported that Ben King has injured his knee at training. It is a suspected ACL but I hope that's not the case.

    Yes, I was hoping that the Suns would have a relatively injury free season, for the first time in their history. It appears that isn't going to happen.
