3 year deal, I've just recieved a email from the club.

Salary cap? What salary cap?

and everyone accused us of cheating when we got Gaz.

how does burgess accept $150,000 or something like that from souths?

still i like souths

hopefully push their season ticket sales up 5000 or so on last year to 15,000 ish.

souths really are a club which can get 40,000 + crowds

Go the Bunnies.

And they still won't make the the top eight.

I'll slip a little on them to make the eight next year.

The top eight?

I'll be amazed if they don't make the top 4!

Their only downfall is Sutton.

Sutton is definitely overrated, but Sandow is the problem.

First things first, Souths need to make the 8. Thinking any further ahead than that, like this year, will produce the same results.

I think Sutton is a good player on his day, the problem is he's a bit too inconsistent. Sandow is the main problem, although he can be good at times and great to watch he isn't gonna win a Premiership for them.
I think they'll definately make the top 8 aslong as they dont have as many injuries as last year because that ruined their season as it would anyone's.

www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/ ... 5952945259 says they expect crowds of 20,000 next year plus an extra $1 million from sponsors souths should be using this signing to really ramp up ST numbers

sutton and sandow are fine in the halves

what killed them last year was injuries

id have kept craig wing at 6, and left sutton at lock but sutton is fine at 6.

souths have to make top 4 with their side.

Is Craig Wing still playing union in Japan.

They need to move back to SFS imo.

Why?

unfortunately yes

homebush offered a much better deal so they locked in for 10 years

after that the SFS started offering better deals and got the tigers there

the tigers should be at homebish and souths at the SFS

having said that if souths really want to market themselves hard they could get massive crowds at homebush

souths original home ground is redfern oval and they used to play at the SFS

being closer to their traditional home ground they might get better crowds at the sfs

maybe if they returned there play some home games at the SCG

load of crap

Being closer to Redfern wont increase crowds, the demographic of the Souths traditional area has changed completly over the years, more Souths Supporters live in the west these days

The club has been doing market reesearch for years now

more live in the western suburbs?

I don't know where he got that stat from but it's not hard to believe. 1.4 million people live out here, I wouldn't be surprised if the largest percentage of fans from most Sydney teams live in the West.

souths said a while back they had fans from all over sydney, including the west

so im guessing he got it from that and twisted it.

with the area being mainly dogs and tigers i cant see them getting that many from the inner west or outer west being panthers and parra.

if souths moved to the SFS their crowds would be better.

their only comp. is the chooks and they are easy to compete with for crowds

Morons still have Souths playing in the western suburbs and Wests playing at the SFS.

A dumber decision could scarcely be reached if you set out to do so.

Do you think they're Irish?

fox news saying souths have had a membership boost off siging gi

I live in the North-West, where Parra fans are the largest percentage. Souths would be second, daylight third. That's why I find it believable.
