    Callan Ward's mum blasts AFL's big money

    Stephen Drill - Herald Sun - 6 Sept


    Callan Ward's mother and sisters at home

    CALLAN Ward's mum has accused the AFL of giving Greater Western Sydney ludicrous amounts of money to recruit players from struggling Melbourne clubs.

    Kerri Ward said Bulldogs fans angry at her son's decision to move should direct their disappointment at the league as it pushed to expand the competition into rugby league heartland.

    "In all honesty the days of the one-club player are really dying out, particularly when you have clubs being set up like this where they can come along and offer ludicrous amounts of money to play football," she said.

      Imagine waking after a hangover from mad monday to this! Thanks Mum..... Nice to hear from a Ward at least, obvious the family weren't big fans of the club.

          Kerrie, dont expect passionate supporters to be happy for your son to be chasing the $$$$. Just be quiet and drift away quietly.
          Also, it is not your concern what sort of crowd we get at a round 24 fixture featuring 2 non finalists as well as it being against an opposition that has no supporters.

              How embarrassing for Callan.

              And 'mum' there are still plenty of one club players around so don't make like there isn't.

                  From reading these comments, C Ward & family - good riddance

                  Lets focus on getting decent compensation for the Rhodes scholar and let that be the end of this crap

                      How embarrassing.

                      Let's give her some credit, at least she remembered she can stop regurgitating the party line of "he still hasn't decided yet and it's a really difficult decision..."

                          Essendon supporters. At least next year they can get back to their usual habit of booing Stanton.

                              Ms Ward asked her son's critics to put themselves in his shoes and said fans needed to go to games and support their team if the club was to become a success.

                              "Eighteen thousand were at the game on Saturday, that's just ridiculous," she said.

                              "Where were all the Doggies supporters out saying goodbye to Barry Hall?"

                              I often put myself in their shoes. And I would play for $10,000 a year if I was a Bullodgs player.
                              And Ms Ward, maybe there would've been more supporters there, if they knew they didn't have to look at your son......

                                  Yes it's the AFL's fault for tempting Callan with lots of money. How dare they lure him with his only weakness. $$$

                                      At least we know where Callan got his "cement head" from.

                                              I can see her point with the money and as a parent, who likes their kids to get booed?
                                              She is his mum she will always stick up for her son as all parents should no matter what the decision, I dont think she agrees with him going but has to accept it.
                                              Is she a single parent if so she probably has struggled and its a great feeling to see your child do well.
                                              To lose him being around home, its obvious to see that hurts.
                                              Me myself I love the dogs but with the doubt of injury and ever being whats expected its a hard decision to make with the money being offered, in just 2 years he is a millionaire at 23.
