We may not be able to hire and fire directly marky mark, yeah the owners bought and deserve that right. But that doesn't mean we aren't the ones who ultimately run a club in the long run. No one's buys a footy team to make money. Its a prestige thing. Try as Zorba may to belittle those standing in the hill, the fact those like Zorba dont want to accept, is that opinion on the hill matters. Hard to get sponsors if the community think you stink. Even the wealthiest don't like flushing millions down the sink. Every supporter who doesn't attend Brookie hurts the hip pocket too. The Penns set the standard for us, it's a results driven business. What really hurts em. Is that walk down the street. No one cares or knows about their corporate empire. It will be the success or failure if the Eagles now they have full control which determines how they will be judged.
Apparently Adelaide lost 8 in a row with a first year coach and won the round ball game. I guess there is always hope. But dam things would need to turn around.
