“I recall his first year when they discovered that he had a bit of an arthritic hip issue, pelvic area issue, the time and trouble we went to medically to try and get to the bottom of that and get him sorted for life, not just for footy, and he didn’t play in that first year. It goes right back to those days.
“There you go. Money talks, huh ... it’s sport all over the world now, somebody else with a bigger wallet comes along and makes it pretty hard.” “I’ll be honest, it is disappointing. We felt like Izak, we put a lot of time into him,” the captain said at the AFL Awards night. “We literally just gave him our honest opinion and how we felt and why we felt with where his spot was in our club and how important he was to us succeeding and how much of a loss it is if he doesn’t play for us.”
