So maybe they gave some leeway to a successful coaching team that summer. But with how it went, both in terms of keeping some players who proved not to be up to it and LW leaving for a bigger job a few months later anyway, they probably won?t be doing it again.
Loyalty to Cameron, Rawlinson, Brindley etc seems the only plausible reason why we didnt sign a single defender after our promotion. It was an odd decision even before we kicked a ball last season. LW must have a hand in that, but hopefully both he and the owners have learned from that experience.

If Luke was coming back Id imagine it would be done by now.
