I've only stated that I'm disappointed he left a struggling club that had brought him up through the juniors to go to the top team for a lot more money, after asking for a pay rise at West. As nickname says, asking for the pay rise at West destroys the argument about moving to better his football and that's the issue I was addressing.
As for never letting the truth get in the way of a good story, thank you, as in this case the truth is that Charles asked for a pay rise at West and after that, decided to move to Central for a payment well above what West could offer. Hardly moving to 'better his football'.
Good luck to him for moving, but I'm entitled to my opinion; an opinion backed up by the facts.
mmm
Charles Slattery asking for pay rise mmmm, he deserved it, he was one of our more consistent players at the time and deserved to go up the scale, the fact is we recruited some real duds from Victoria that would have got paid heaps more than Slatts was getting, the truth is also that his father was having his two bobs worth as well.
But to accuse Centrals on this one is totally unfair as he could have been treated better by us and he proved in a better side how valuable a player he really was until injuries have dented his career a little

Are you suggesting Slattery went to Centrals to improve his chances of being drafted?

IMHO we have plenty of depth by doing a mock team not including AFL listed players proves that so if Hardy was up to league standard and Eddie still has his passion for the game i would be satisified but not over the moon.

I did the same after reading this. I think we look strong. But agree we definately need to sign one more key position player. An extra midfielder wouldnt hurt but is not as important IMHO.

How're we gonna do that?????
And, all summer we've been hearing bleating that certain clubs lose out to certain other clubs because they are able to offer more money, yet......I read in the 'Tiser that Shane Birss has signed with Westies.
If we're to believe certain supporters of certain clubs, that must mean no other club was interested in Birss, otherwise he would've ended up elsewhere.

Anyway, Birss was not involved in a bidding war, he has a close friend at the club.
