My point is that it is clear that the Sandy/Saints alignment has not worked and will not work in the future and I think we need to look at alternatives. The club should poll members on their preferred option. Obviously an alignment with Frankston would make sense on several levels as I have indicate...

Frankston Dolphins

I would be happy for us to install Simon McPhee at Frankston in 2013. Our players would play in red, white and black, instead of gold, blue, brown, etc It's just down the road from Seaford. It really identifies us with the Mornington Peninsula, not just bayside suburbs. This bails out a financially ...

Coaching vacuum

Who better to fill the void left by rl than his mentor, Paul Roos, at least he knows what it takes to coach a team to a premiership!
