It's natural for people to be defensive of Kane, a great player, club legend etc. But Roo has been there, done that. The premiership window is open. Kane signed on for one more year, one more crack at one more flag. It's hard to believe Kane wouldn't want to be part of that success and with every possible chance they could achieve that feat, it does seem strange for him to pull the pin, regardless of any job offer on the cards. Selfish is not a word you would associate with Kane Cornes. It's hard to know exactly what to think about it but it doesn't sit right with me. Just hope it was on Kane's terms.
It only looks bad because the MFS recruitment process only happens once every 2 or 3 years. Kane is between a rock and a hard place as if he knocks it back he might have to wait 3 years until the next one. Highly doubt he would still be playing football in 3 years at AFL level.
