At the start of the year, i wouldn't have minded us going after him, but the way he has conducted himself (particularly in the second half) this year really shows how poor his attitude is. Keep away from him.

how would you behave idf the club has been a [censored] to its players & people such as MnM, yarran, hendo, stuffing them around & then spend a whole season tanking, & doing all it can to derail they're own season.

if you were up for contract & considering moving, then your club tanks the 3rd last game of the season, against the lowest club, so they can get the first pick, would you tell them you pizzing off...

If I was Hendo, I would have told them as well, so there's no chance i can do an ACL, in the remaining games, before getting a new contract elsewhere.

The poor bloke got traded from the Lions, in the Fev deal; without any real say for his hopes & desires, then gets sent to the price-fixers, who start to tank, & against his old club who were on the bottom, the tankers get devoured by the Lions.

i would be really pizza d off myself, & outa there.

I don't have an issue with him telling the club he wants out, in fact i think it's very honest of him and that he did the right thing there. What i don't like is how he has handled himself on the field for the majority of the season. Most of the time he has looked like he doesn't give a flying f@#k, which i think is a very poor attitude to have.

A lot like when Jack Riewoldt really sooks it up. Where does their sense on entitlement come from?

well i haven't been watching the footy, a couple of minutes here & there; so Ive missed the antics, but can you imagine a young fella who is taken in a draft, fly's interstate, serves years as understudy, to then be shipped out for a bigger name, ends up at a club who is torn & broken, then they start to shake things up, with board & admin infighting & change, then they get a high profile coach, then deliberately undermine him & his name over a couple of years, only to sack him mid season whilst list managing their way to the bottom of the ladder...

how should a player who growing up witnessed this stuff happen at his supported club, then see it happening to him in his chosen career, act? I'd say pretty disillusioned & upset.

others who only care about money, & their wages, may act better, taking all that in their stride.... someone who cares more about they're craft, may be very upset, & show it.

edit: I don't understand the entitlement angle.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
