Spot on. What does it do for the environment to hang on to players who don’t to be there. What are their young draftees going to get out of playing in the VFL with senior players who have checked out.I don't see how screwing over a life long servant of the club because he wants senior game time so you can hold onto him and rot in the VFL does you any favors.
If WB want to cut off their nose to spite their face so be it. Will do wonders for club culture and player attitude towards a coach which is at best questionable. Doing shit like that makes it hard to be successful.
Just like Melbourne holding onto Oliver and wanting prime value for trading him. As long as he stays at that club it's going to be a train wreck.
And in twelve months Macrae won’t have any trade value and will still have two years to go on his contract.
I’m sure a deal will get done and we won’t be paying much more than our third.
