Jack Gunston of the crows has walked out saying he wants to return to Victoria.. he killed us in round 23 kicking 5 goals and at the age only 20 in October he would surely fit into our structure!?

thoughts?
 
Hawthorn & North want to secure his services. Good hands on him
 
Sounds like a kid of very poor character. Was going to be given the Mark Bickley award at their B+F but informed the club he was going back to Victoria at 2pm and wouldn't be attending.

Even though Melbourne's the city most AFL players prefer to live in, it gives me concern everytime we draft a non-Vic in that he'd do the same thing after a few years.

I see it as strength of character...he's not going to embarrass the club or show disrespect by accepting the Bickley award and THEN tell 'em he's leaving. Good on him I say.
 
i like this guy a lot from what ive seen..would be a great pick up to play a taylor/morton.grigffiths role...
 
This kid can play - had a horror last year in the TAC cup due to injury but returned to play the last 6 games and smash them. Is an elite kick and whilst he has been playing forward at Adelaide has shown at TAC and SANFL level that he can play back. He could turn into an Andrew Mackie style rebounding defender. Go get him blair
 
Given he didn't attend their awards night and they took his award off him, it appears as though bridges have been well and truly burnt. If that's the case I woudn't be at all surprised if he just nominates for the draft. Asdelaide probably won't be overly keen to help him get where he wants to go and Gunston won't accept a trade unless it's to a team he wants to play for. Plenty of opportunity for grief here I reckon.
 
Yep reckon the kid would fit nicley in our fwd line.....love havin a bloke you know is going to kick the must kicks.....I reckon who ever gets him will have to pay overs
