I discriminate indiscriminately
From all reports he does not drink and is a lovely guy… not similar in nature to his brothers…I'm not so sure.
Chooks had him under contract but thought he wasn't the right person to set the tone for their young players coming through. Despite his on-field performance being good, in fact very good.
You reckon the Chooks lost the plot? I'd say it's a red flag at very least.
Of course desperate clubs will take a risk on a player... but possibly telling that the club to sign him was the 3 time wooden spooners (about as desperate as you can get)
Personally I reckon the chooks prioritised other cheaper forwards which they (wrongfully) thought/think have more potential…
May was worth the risk on game alone but I have not heard a single person say he comes with baggage - that narrative is purely related to people assuming “chooks are smarter than that” and “where there’s smoke, there’s fire”…
Fletch is spewing about the chooks letting him go - and with good reason…
