I'm always interested to read what supporters have to say when a favourite son leaves their club for another club. Campo didn't leave Carlton for more money - he is getting paid at Essendon HALF of what he was being paid at Princes Park.juzza316 said:Well there was not alot we could really do. If he didn't want to play for the club we had to let him go, albeit for nothing! He will be an excellent player for the Dons for a couple of years with the hard-at-the-ball players you mentioned. I will be angry if he tastes any success with them!
He have you great service - and the nasty comments about his departure do you no credit.
However, the fact you Blue-baggers SHOULD be mad about is that your football department let such a good player go for NOTHING, and that is inexcusable,imo. It's the Port Adelaide dummy spit all over again.
If a bloke doesn't want to play for you (for whatever the reason) and you can't change his mind, then look for the best deal you can get.
Essendon had to do that with Paul Salmon a few years back when they couldn't get him to stay. We finished up with 2 good players for the loss of one, and had good service out of both plus they played in a premiership side.
Once a player is out of contract he can please himself where he plays.





we'll belt them from piller to post
and hope other clubs totally humiliate them
teach em how
