As you said no one including supporters who are loyal to the blokes who they think are good but are prepared to call others from the club they support spuds or shit trucks and carry on like the world is ending when a good player leaves but could not give a toss if others are delisted and have their career ended or it is another club the good player has left.
Managers do what they do, problem is supporters are emotionally attached to some players and get way too defensive or personal when one of them even hints at leaving. To say Conners is just in it for the money and he is telling blokes to leave a club just so he can make another $20k is total rubbish. Players move on from the blokes who are just in it for the money pretty quickly.
So far what has Conner done to Essendon ?
Ryder had a choice, Essendon or stay with the wife and kids but move interstate because he could not keep it in his pants , Crameri had an easy choice, more money over more years that he could not turn down and i know there where a few issues internally with a few players as well. Then we have Melksham who no one had any issues with showing him the door and moving him on.
So why is it Conners is a money hungry grub ?
