Thought I’d make this it’s own thread - I’ve enjoyed reading this from others in previous years. Please feel free to add anything I’ve missed if you were there:
Highlights:
- general vibe was very positive, a lot of the stuff we’ve heard over the off season was reiterated. Club is extremely united on all fronts players/staff/execs. Warburton said that on Friday at 6pm the office was still bustling with staff - in previous years people just came and went as they pleased
- Centre of Excellence funding approved for ~$40mil. Will be a 3-level complex out the back of BSG with multiple training fields. One level dedicated to pathways, one to NRL. Direct tunnel from the building to the main BSG field
- we will be releasing a weekly episode of some sort during the year + a live game day broadcast for each of our games- not many details given here. Digital communications a real focus from now
- Gus got up and spoke, trashed the DT twice. Said we have 650k to spend this year and are $2-3 million under the cap next year. Said the off season program this year was “world class”. Praised the board and execs for making everything smooth
- they will try to make ANZ our ‘tribal home’ somehow this year, to me sounded like they weren’t extremely pleased with our stadia situation atm and was sort of an acknowledgement that fans aren’t either (just my take though)
- jackson and Tolman were there to accept life memberships
