Callan Ward jumps Bulldogs ship to join GWS

Prove it. I know of a number of players who rejected GWS's offer yet you say "most" would have taken the money.

Are you serious?

Are you serious?

Dustin Martin, Andrew Swallow, Dale Thomas, Dane Swan, Scott Pendlebury, Mathew Kreuzer all refused and they are the only ones we know about. I suppose it comes down what your definition of "most" is.

I know this is a really, really, really rough comparison but when we were recruiting players at a local level in the bush we had a rule that you had to speak to twenty players to get one recruit. We were offering big money at times relatively speaking and this rule tended to hold true.

So what you are saying is the above players are made of the right stuff and money does not mean as much.
Or do you think they love the club and hence why they stayed?

Maybe a bit of both but something we'll never know. Whatever the reason they knocked back GWS but Ward didn't.

Interesting that all players above are either very high draft picks and/or already very well payed. I think the offer to Martin was back in 2010 before he had even reached 10 games. I'm not sure he got an offer this year.

Ward isn't an elite player so the money he was offered was something he could have =only ever dreamed of.

You're right. Ironically according to article he was likely to be on a very similar wage to stay at Richmond as Ward was offered to stay with us.

If this doesn't inspire you to get a GWS membership, I don't know what will?

I know you won't believe me, but I was bored and looking at Adam Cooney clips on YouTube. Through some links I saw a clip of Ward getting kicked in a StKilda game, from there it popped up?
Do you buy that?
