Newcastle Swan's Contributions

Whilst both agreeing and disagreeing with certain statements this article certainly raises a topic that I'm sure will be more and more prominent in the headlines after the introduction of the Free Agency as well as GC and GWS. I applaud Bradshaw for his work both at the Lions and the Swans. His decision to move wasn't about money but the lack of loyalty shown to him, the Lions leading goalscorer. On the other end of the spectrum are those who show complete disregard for the clubs that nurtured them through their junior career and jump ship such as Brock McLean. His move to Carlton was in the hope of greater finals action but as we can see from players such as Pavlich and Deledio loyalty to the gurnsey is often a most treasured prize.

Players owe clubs little when it comes to loyalty
