I just don't buy into the JMcGov rumours. He seems perfectly happy at West Coast, will be one of the highest paid players there next contract. Could be the captain or VC soon too. Sure, if any club threw an outrageous contract at him, he would have to consider it (Freo or otherwise) but it isn't like we couldn't match it. I also don't buy into the older brother following the younger brother or that Mitch is so immature he wouldn't want to come to WC, when he has been playing for Adelaide for several seasons already, if the offer was right. I understand the allure of playing for the team you grew up following and your father's club before being drafted but once that ship has sailed, I think you go to the best offer if you want to return home and playing where your older brother plays would outweigh playing for your dad's old club (especially when it isn't like a Silvagni type legend and dynasty).
I equally don't think any player could be upset how the Priddis situation was handled even taking on board I have no idea how it was handled. He had a contract and worst case scenario is they told him he would mostly be playing WAFL. Happens to all players at the end of their careers and it isn't like his form has been great and he was being told that. The writing was clearly on the wall regarding regeneration of the midfield and any reasonable person (as sad as they may be to see him go) couldn't blame a club for that. All clubs do it, including Freo. So why crack the sh*ts and go there?
Seems to be a typical baseless rumour as Mitch hasn't signed, their dad played for Freo and Jeremy is a restricted free agent in a year.
