The only way it is up to the Club is if they offer him a contract, otherwise it is the draft or the club he chooses. Either way he wins.I realise that there is a lot of people here who have personal relationships with Jarrod Witts. I dont have the advantage of talking to him on a daily basis. However, it's common knowledge that he went to the club last year and said that he didnt want to be traded. It's also common knowledge that the club agreed not to trade him. It's also common knowledge that he was under contract last year but it ended this year. That strengthens Collingwood's hand if they still want to trade him. I dont see why Witt's attitude would have changed a lot. People at BF assume that he will give up on being successful at Collingwood because that's what they would do. It's a mistake to think another person is a quitter just because you're a quitter. Witts didnt appear to be a quitter last year and Grundy's form mightnt make him feel like quitting this year. My feeling is that it's up to the club if he plays with another club next year....
Essendon or WB would be a great fit for him as I expect both clubs to be in the 8 next year.
