Whose decision was it that he should not train? Did he turn up ready to train? Tell us what actually happened on Sunday morning before training, don't tell us what the end result was, we already know that. As AP said, dropping him from the team is possibly not the best choice to make. Put him out there and let his actions speak for themselves against North. Fair enough if he turned up for training off his trolly on the booze, but if that was the case, say so. Don't hide behind the wall of "we won't question that, it wont be good for his well being" . The Freo supporters have been fed a litany of half truths and excuses for the last 5 or 6 years, and it is about time some straightshooter stood up to lead the club forward, not sideways behind a raft of cover-ups and deceptions.
