This is not surprising given the Swans recruitment policy. However it does beg the question, we’re does a club draw the line on bad boys?
Australian Cricket stuck with Shane Warne for years until a positive drug test forced them to sit him on the sidelines.
A strict recruitment policy is great foundation to build a club on and the Swans and more recently the Canterbury Bulldogs have shown this strategy to be hugely successful. But what if the bad boy puts bums on seats and wins games?
It’s a fine line, but one thing is fact. There will always be bad boys, very talented game winning bad boys and they’ll always find a club. Because on field success is to big an incentive in the money hungry world of sport.
