I can understand it only if money was the sole reason for Logue's decision. I don't know whether there were extenuating reasons for him wanting to shift to a place like Melbourne and a club like Norths, when already a part of a place like Perth and a club like Freo, but if there were, they'd need to be significant, IMO.
I watched a number of Old Bull, Young Bucks, mostly because of Mundy and the other players they would interview, and always found myself getting a little uncomfortable with Logue's cockiness...at times he appeared to be quite impressed with himself, and I didn't ever come away with the thought that he had displayed evidence of being a good clubman.
I understand the difference between $3m and $2m, but both salaries are pretty much in excess of earnings the average person dreams about, even if for only a mere decade or so.
On this topic, I am in complete agreement with Mr Mushroom and Mr Bizkit.
