Everyone in league seems to have the opposite view on it i.e. constant speculation + players announcing that they're leaving early in the season is a major distraction for clubs involved and just pisses of the fans.I think fans would be ok with it, but AFL coaches dont seem to be mature enough about it to let them stay in the team
trolololoHi Guys,
I have an eithcal dilemma.
There was a lot of chest beating last trade period. But it seemed that Brisbane played the moral card, which was to get Beams back to play with his sick dad. However, clearly, money played a huge part in Beams leaving. It appears now, that from almost all reports, Aish wants to move back to MELBOURNE, and play for a big club. Could it be, that the Collingwood hierarchy, put forward the opportunity for Aish, just like Beams, to leave a club where he didn't want to be at, and potentially play with his mates back in Melbourne? And the Lions, hypocritical, clearly hypocritically with it's stance on Beams, flat out refused? Now, fast forward six months, Aish contract talks is doing to Brisbane what people suggested Beams contract talks would do to Collingwood if we kept him on the list. Perhaps not on the same level but not too far off, how do you value team disharmony, when someone clearly doesn't want to be there? It's kind of hard to judge.
Which brings me to my next few questions. Do you feel sympathy for Aish, if, it turns out the Lions flat out refused to trade Aish being a contracted player, despite poaching a contracted player? Ethically, on the moral compass, would Aish be right to label the Lions management, and Greg Swann, hypocrites? Would Aish' mates at the Lions have sympathy for his position if he felt the Lions hierarchy were hypocrites to keep him on a chain to his contract? And do any of you blame the Brisbane hierarchy for this continuing, destabilising, morale crushing issue if you can see this from Aish' perspective? And are you bitter about throwing in Crisp as steak knives who's actually outperforming Aish this year anyway?
Cheers.
Points for effort, I suppose. Two whole paragraphs!
