Without the offer of a new contract, Buckley requested a trade.
He said the Demons were unclear in their commitment up until he was cut from the list on October 13.
"The communication wasn't great, to be honest," Buckley said. "They said right up until the day that it happened that they weren't too sure.
"In the end it had to happen that way. It was a disappointing but I'm not here to bad-mouth Melbourne. They gave me my first opportunity."
I'm still surprised we got rid of him, unless his body issues are worse than we thought. I think he's got genunie talent and could blossom if given an extended run. Hope he finds a new home at Norf.
