Perhaps you've named the problem...
Never mind a suspension, Aker should be dropped on form alone.

It wasn't that long ago that spuds like Jade Rawlings and Ben Holland were openly telling the football world that they did not want to entertain a move to the Bulldogs, so for Aker to willingly choose the Dogs over a number of suitors at the time was really important in building the attractiveness of the Bulldog brand to the wider football public. It has also been a good challenge for our admin to handle someone that doesn't necessarily toe the party line at all times - this has made us a very strong force off field that other clubs pale in comparison to.
Well said.

I'm pretty sure it was last year, because he spoke about the subject matter and the Herald Sun footy show things in the ELC. I believe the gist of it was that the first player to come out would make millions.

Fair enough, I could be wrong:)
