I'm with you on this. He wanted to go home for personal and family reasons. Geelong were willing to trade to Freo but he only wanted to go to WCE. If you are in such a desparate need to go home you would think he would go to either. Good on Geelong for keeping him.It might be nuts, but I'm glad Geelong stood firm.
It is supposed to be a national draft and I'm all for discouraging the idea that players can have a mindset of leaving after 1 year back to their home state for personal reasons when their circumstances haven't really changed since nominating.
