Well he was hardly honest and innocent himself, despite his current claims.
He did say that the driving issue was wanting to go home to Qld, then later decide Sydney was "home"... :lol:

Club of his choice wasn't it? What does it matter if he changed his mind.

But the grounds for the clause in the first place were wanting to go "home" eventually...
The wording was vague to give negotiating flex about which "home" club in his home state, Qld.
Suddenly, with enough money on offer, Sydney suddenly qualified in his eyes...

He was born in Sydney though. What's wrong with getting a better deal anyway?

Nothing - he just can't claim he was innocent and mislead as he is trying to do.

Bollocks!!! It was around the introduction of new afl clubs.

The crows agreed to trade him at the end of his contract and then stabbed him in the back!!!!

How honorable??

Justice for all would be if all clubs that can draft Tippett baulked at his over the top price tag and no one selected him.
Where would that leave him. He would have to forgo the expected fortune and then next year be up for grabs by any club in the draft. That's a scenario i would like to see!!!!!. It wont happen though

Surely they have some justification to be upset with the bloke? ( As well as some of their own )

Wishing Tippett doesn't play footy for 12 months, because of something their club did?

This isn't true. The majority of people who hate the crows are South Australians who follow someone else. Truth is no one else gives a stuff about us compared to the collingwoods, essendons and carltons of the world.

That still doesnt make it right. Both Adelaide and Tippet are as guilty as each other.
