Correction.
Melbourne offered him a chance to return to WA and leaked his visit to the facility. Yes, Freo have chased him.
Petulance is a good description for Mahoney and Melbourne fans when the historic trade deal doesn’t happen how they expect.
Melbourne posters were talking up picks 4 and 5. It’s been reported (probably an exaggeration because you know, Journos) that Melbourne asked for 4,5 and Cerra or Brayshaw for Hogan. And when Bell didn’t fold, your list manager spat the dummy in the press, Journos disgraced themselves with their hysterical overreactions and the stupider Melbourne and neutral posters on here shook with rage (literally!) as they typed their condemnations. And you call Bell petulant? Please.
Bell didn’t fold, his initial offer was simply ridiculous. You either offer what is is worth, ie two firsts or picks 5 and 20 for the one of the best forwards in the competition or you walk away, it’s not that hard.
What about the rage from Freo fans about Neales value and thus holding up other trades? Incompetence is the only way to see it.
