Tedesco made his decision before that deadline. As my sources told me at the time, and which i posted, Tedesco had made his decision to go to the Roosters the Tuesday of the week that the Friday deadline was imposed. He had no intention of staying after that Tuesday and had already told most of the playing group, family and close friends he was leaving. He didn't formally inform the club at the time, but obviously they found out and is ultimately the reason they met with Isaac and Tedesco and imposed the deadline of Friday.
Anything you hear from here on out is just Tedesco and Isaac trying to repair Teddy's reputation. There is more behind his decision than he is leading on but he knows how it would make him and others look if he came out and said it…
I wish you would elaborate. This is the second time in the last month you've alluded to something else going down that contributed to all this. Any chance?
Don't want to go too far into it for certain reasons but the whole Joe Wehbe and Mitchell Moses saga have had a much bigger role than publicised. I would go as far as to say that those two and the management almost made the decision for Woods and Tedesco, which is ridiculous considering they are 26 and 24 year old men capable of making their own decision.
Baze if that's true then they really are prima-donnas and I'm glad we're rid of that boys club!
