Heal to the Gold Coast next season?
It's a couple of days old now so I'm surprised it wasn't a thread heading before now, but did anyone else catch the Fox Sports News telephone interview over the weekend with John Casey on the Heal sacking.
Nothing too much that we didn't already know but right at the end, even after Mel Mclaughlin had wrapped up the interview, Casey tipped in with words to the effect of 'don't be surprised to see Shane Heal on the Gold Coast next year'
Now this could mean anything as he lived here for a few years before coming out of retirement to play with the Drags. Returning to this situation fits the headline.
But I know he's got a long standing friendship with Brendan Joyce going back to Joyce's Nunawading days in the mid 80's when I believe Heal was the team's towel boy or something.
While I think his playing days are done, surely there's some value for both sides with him sitting behind Joyce and Mark Watkins for a season?
