Empire

welcome to the 21st century. Club loyalty is a thing of the past now Empire I'm afraid. The JID is big enough to be able to cope with player losses. IMO
Not so sure about that, as with all generalisations, there are cases for and against.
Jack Vanderglas and Reza Almasi are two guys who have been with Easts through thick and thin, and could definitely made 1st grade anywhere else in Australia, especially clubs that can actually pay...
Alas, yes the JID is strong enough to absorb the expected losses.
