Swans players put the club in an impossible position. How can Blakey feel like a victim (I suspect his trade request has more to do with $$$) when guys who *weren't involved* missed out on a possible flag? The Carlton situation will likely blow over, but not before the media trawls for headlines.

What better way to remember decades of noble sacrifice in Afghanistan than trotting out an internationally-abhorred war criminal.😑

By comparison, Wiliam Calley Jr (who led the My Lai Massacre in Vietnam) disappeared from public life after release from prison/house arrest.

Usually, when it comes down to a choice bwtween "that was a stuff-up" and something more sinister, I go with the stuff-up. This time (despite Albo making a rod for his back)? Not so sure. It's not like he minds slaving himself out to the highest bidder ...
