Yes but players have left clubs they love for less then this thoughHeppells hurt at the moment. It must ache seeing his teammates go out and playing week to week. He'd want nothing more than to be playing footy with them right now. He has a platform to vent publicly on fox footy, so I'm not surprised him being upset is well known. I really doubt he will leave though. He's upset and angry but his heart will always be in efc
This is why I started the thread.
Heppell's in a position and of a profile such that if he said he was staying it would go a long way to get others to re-sign.
And it would as good as guarantee him the captaincy (of one of the big four clubs - massive profile, life-after-football taken care of then and there).
The fact he's left the door very much ajar is interesting if nothing else.
I said a couple of weeks ago, I'd like nothing more than all 12 of us to come back and experience that success we deserve.
I don't he think will.
Essendon have been very good to him and the other players it's not like the club have abandoned them.
Wouldn't say it's confirmed.Now another player has confirmed to re-commit to the club in Tom Bellchambers.
Seems the rumours of departures are starting to unravel (Herald-Sun)

The guys like Bellchambers & Hocking are not the ones to worry about imo. It's the older ones who are within a year or 2 of retirement (Watson, Stanton) and the ones who will get big money offers from flag-contending sides (Hurley, Hooker, Heppell).
He's already contacted. He doesn't have to put pen to paper. Just has to say im not leaving.Wouldn't say it's confirmed.
Pretty much a nothing article by the Hun. I will wait until he puts pen to paper before getting too excited
He probably realised no one was interested in his services.Now another player has confirmed to re-commit to the club in Tom Bellchambers.

It's a good color on most people, it's when you put that hideous white logo on it and remove the poor sap's heart that the appeal is lostHe'd look good in navy blue...

You'd know something about having the heart ripped out of the club.
Whereas your club has forgotten what it was to even have a heart.
So braveWe have a history of drug cheats like you. However our drug cheat admitted to it and copped his punishment, whereas your orchestrated cheating program had the players bleating "OH IT'S NOT MY FAULT", at least we have honour.
Jobe won't go anywhere or Tim will disown him!The guys like Bellchambers & Hocking are not the ones to worry about imo. It's the older ones who are within a year or 2 of retirement (Watson, Stanton) and the ones who will get big money offers from flag-contending sides (Hurley, Hooker, Heppell).
Jobe might just retire. He's been through so much in past 3 years.Jobe won't go anywhere or Tim will disown him!
