Seemed pretty respectful there and committed. Good on him.

Can't blame him for taking the money on offer.

Yeah I agree, he's handled himself pretty well regarding the matter, I wish him all the best.

Key take away is the part about the change in playing style.

Hopefully Madge coaches to players strengths rather than players having to play styles they just aren’t suited towards.

That behind Stefano’s extension is the best news this pre season.

Have to admit that when I saw the headline I thought he was going to complain how the club did the dirty on him. He didn’t. Just acknowledged that it was a hard decision and he’ll put in till the day he leaves here. Just another player preparing to leave one club for another.

Didn't bag anyone and has bonded with the boys. He spoke well.
I was thinking sometime ago about footy players these days. If say WT was your boss and they're paying you hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to play a sport you love, why wouldn't you be grateful to them for giving you all this money.
It seems that because it's a club not an individual thats paying you then it becomes less personal - like 'I dont owe you anything'
If I was a chippy and my boss gave me above award rate, a company ute, uniform and security then I would be keen to work hard for him and remain loyal. I would be forever grateful.
I couldn't save 20k a year after paying all my living expenses.
It's like players are disconnected from the real world.
Supporters don't seem to matter except when it's time to hand over our hard earned dollars.
I'm not referring that I'm aiming this at Lucy, rather at players in general who jump ship with little regard to the club and their supporters who have paid them and supported them.
Geez this is deep for 'ol Cobar'

Definitely doesn't look like any sort of swap deal is going to happen and if there is any truth in the story about Shawn Blore's injury, then we need him more than ever this season.

At least it sounds like he is committed to having a go and there isn't any nastiness going on in the background, so let's hope his last season with us is a good one.

Well that’s it. If the Cows are going to pay him significantly more than we were it’s hard to blame him given his legs seem an injury ticking time bomb. Hopefully he backs his words with a professional attitude.
