the first thing i saw about it was a GWS tweet this morning. surely clubs shouldn't be announcing that a player wants to come to your club until a bit of ground work has been done, otherwise if things go sour everyone looks like a tool.
same with chriso, the news came from his agent calling brissy tuesday night. what the hell?
is it some strategy to put pressure on the club to 'do the right thing' or something?
anyway, this sort of news should only come out when an actual trade is done in my opinion. look at varcoe, shopped around last year as well, now three or four clubs linked to him this year too. imagine if no deal is done again.
