Sydney might be able to make Francis in the gun player he always could have been

Release date was scheduled for December 26

Is the reason Clarko is not giving his side of the story yet because he doesn't know what else is to come out, what other evidence might be offered. It would be even more damning if he gives his story now and then its contradicted by an email or another witness a day later.

Not sure how Newbold can still deny any knowledge of the emails

Conspiracy eh? A few former players and their families, a former coach, a journo, and a Hawks investigation team all banded together to take down some big guns?

Oh yeah, its super motivational for a player to have that type of contract

The consequences of his actions being Collingwood offering him a 5 year contract? I

Sounds like St kilda is offering him the big bucks without the Nanny-Watch clause

Employer offers employee unreasonable contract, differing behaviourally from all other players in the league Its a bizarre way to treat a star player, and to have done it so publicly

Says it all really Collingwood trying to force such a contact on de goey isn't going to help De goey feels warm thoughts towards the club

Why would you single out your best player with a special naughty boy contract? Good on him for telling Collingwood to * off

Our midfield is in good shape, it's a young group, nothing to worry about there

I agree He has improved his defensive pressure and he can take a decent mark. No reason he couldn't pay forward or back
