chris Scott spoke about the bundy situation in the Hun today. Didn't seem like he understood bundy, and in the end just wanted him out. When the full truth comes out it will interesting.

From what I heard Christensen was a nightmare for most of the year and has been a distraction for a while. There wasn't too many tears shed from the playing group when he left.
Oh, and the TL rumour is garbage.
Are you able/willing to elaborate on that? I've heard and read a few similar sentiments and am quite interested to know the actual details, since Christensen was one of my favourites.
Fully understand if you would rather not elaborate on a public forum, though.
Can't give you anything specific. He is apparently though very immature and has caused a number of issues the last couple of years. The senior group were comfortable seeing him out the door. The GFC admin didn't fight to keep him either.

What the hell is 'TL'?
Is it true that Christensen basically disappeared for about a month during the last pre-season? Apparently no one from the club knew where he was during that time. It was only after he came back that the back issue was examined and he was then put in for surgery.

That would lend some weight to Cracker Keenan's assertion in the most recent issue of Inside Football that Joel Selwood gave Bundy a few home truths about his lifestyle and lack of attention to his footy, which was apparently one of the reasons why Bundy chose to leave.
Is it crossing the lines of needless gossip if this was discussed a bit further? Because personally I would be very interested in hearing theories/thoughts and suggestions as to what really happened? Understand if the mods don't want it posted though
Meaning people in the know feel free to PM me
You would know more than all of us! Can you put us out of our misery and intrigue in anyway???This thread...
You reeeeaalllly want to know don't you...His comments only make me more intrigued by it all...
As the saying goes mate 'The wolves are always at the door'the love for bundy certainly has done a 180 hasn't it
yeah bloody oath, its just a curiosity thing that has now just grown hahaYou reeeeaalllly want to know don't you...
Interesting given his disappearance from the team after Round 22.The article that the OP is talking about was also in yesterdays Geelong Addy, but unfortunately doesn't appear to be online anywhere - it was an interest short read and some of the stuff Scott had to say shows that the situation wasn't as immediate or sudden as it appeared to be come trade week, and while it may have been a shock to majority of the public, it doesn't seem to be the same for those within the footy club:
Scott said he took some time to understand Christensen's problems fully, but "it wasn't a matter of trying to talk him out of it".
"I took a couple of weeks at least at the end of the season to try and understand the situation better, and it was an evolving situation too," he said.
"So it wasn't as if we didn't know about the issues, but certainly it came to a head towards the end of the season, so once I understood where he was coming from, the decision was pretty easy in the end, for both parties."
Scott said the club did not play hardball in trying to get a better deal, as it might if a player was requesting a trade for different reasons.
"The priority for us was Allen's welfare. It's not always that was with trades," he said....
... "When it's a welfare issue and there are personal issues associated with it, we think as a club we've got a responsibility to do the right thing by our boys and we know that our other players are watching how we handle those situations as well."
I've just realised there is +'ve to be taken from this whole sorry affair.
Stokes will no longer be confused with Christensen.
