Tippet came first. Buddy came second. The cap came under pressure once we added Buddy & it was franked when we were given the trade ban & lost cola on the back of getting Buddy. If we are going to rubbish the club's decisions regarding the inability to keep players like Mitchell & Mummy etc, then we at least need to be brave enough to blame the Buddy trade because his recruitment was ALWAYS going to cause us trouble with the list going forward.Tippett by far imo
You don’t pay a million for a bloke that wasn’t even A grade at the time. The clause was just absurd paying him that much
But yeah, like I said, Buddy puts a smile on our faces 5 times a year so unpopular to blame his recruitment.
