I have some serious doubts on this. He’d surely have to have had a reasonable substantial letter or report regarding his mental health. I assume he’d have some sort of separation anxiety or something to have gone to those lengths. Also I’d have thought the AFL would have wanted something substantial or this is draft tampering. Perhaps interstate clubs didn’t want to follow up as they thought maybe he’d be too much trouble. Anyways still think if this was the case the AFL would have investigated it. Maybe they did and he had sufficient documentation.
