stupid arrogant weagles

ok, finding reasons to be critical of west coast is, as they say, like shooting fish in a barrel (although why you'd actually bother putting the fish there and then shooting them is beyond me) but yet again their arrogance is truly startling. here they are, about to lose one of the best players in the afl, potentially without receiving any compensation, and yet they are trying to play hardball with carlton. it has now got to the stage where carlton and richmond are discussing doing a deal whereby the weagles are bypassed completely. from what i've read, it sounds like both carlton and richmond would be better off dealing with each other and if it wasn't for the weagles backing carlton into a corner it's unlikely this avenue wouldn't have been explored. trevor nisbett is quoted in the paper today as saying "if they don't hand over the No1 selection, then he's not at carlton, simple as that" and then goes on to say "i find it staggering that carlton doesn't think chris judd is worth the first pick in the draft.". is the guy delusional or just immersed in the culture of a club that seems to think it can do whatever it likes without consequences? whether carlton think juddie is worth the first pick or not is completely irrelevant. what is simple is that they don't have to deal with west coast if they don't want and it is now very possible that the weagles could lose their captain without any compensation all as a result of their own bloody-mindedness. naturally i find it all very amusing.
