Really? Didn’t he win you a flag?

When a player left Wests Tigers after 2005, Scott Prince for example, I wished them nothing but the best. They won a premiership for my club.

Each their own I guess.
I won't bore everyone again with all the details but nah he can get stuffed. Most disliked ever Dee more than Scully

Did Scott Prince bring about the downfall of your club on his way out? I think you'd have a very different opinion if he did.

We haven’t won a GF since and only played in 2 finals since. 15 years of pain. Not saying it’s all on him but.
Yeah but you didn't pay Prince a shitload of money only for him to be an unprofessional jackass who totally ****ed your club culture before he left. **** Oliver.

I’m a bit surprised at the Demonland reaction to trading Oliver.

I would have expected them to do a full 360 on him after the weird moment of him sitting in some van saying he liked Collingwood better than Melbourne.

(I actually enjoyed that from him. Hats off Ollie. You get the sense he’s ready to ditch the “win back the respect of my mates” mode and replace it with full Bailey Smith stuff. Hope so.)
 
I'm fascinated to see what his preseason looks like. God I hope he settles in well...long road back to his best.
I like him. Everyone else here hates him but I hope you get something out of him. Just tell him never to kick the ball. Tie his legs together if necessary. Good luck. I don’t enjoy watching any player fall apart like this so I hope he goes okay.

I don't have strong emotions about Clarry himself, I just can't believe we're paying him ~$700k a year for the next 5 years to play for the Giants. What a freaking debacle.
I mean.

For that.

Honestly I think this is great for us, obviously, his clearance work is what we are missing. Even his recent down years it’s still quality.

But you guys get a complete refresh of the list before the Devils come on. I remember some clubs not handling the Suns and Giants arrival well. Demons on the front foot.

You can blame the dip shit president and coach for pointlessly keeping him around the last 2 years.

That Gif is what I imagine Clarry's pre-season is looking like. Enjoy!

Not true. I certainly don't hate the guy. One of the best players I've seen in the red and blue jumper. I don't like GWS so I can't wish him success, but i hope he can keep it together and get back to his best. I was glad the club stuck by him in that first year. Clearly he was in a dark place and struggling. But yeah, was happy to see him traded last offseason once he seemed to get his life back on track. Unfortunately he couldn't get back to anywhere near his best onfield. And with what we were paying him, that's not good enough. Wil be weird not seeing Trac and Oliver out there. Very supportive of the new era though. Let's see how it goes.

I haven't seen anything about the contract situation/what we're on the hook for confirmed - I presume this is accurate but anything reported on since the trade?
 
Hope the prick doesnt hospitalize himself on another cocaine bender lol.

He's a good fit for gws. His hair matches the jumper and he's a massive bedshitter as well.

Have fun campaigner catchya at Revs!!!
