Some antics....
He could easily have just sulked this year after asking for a transfer (which he is entitled to do) but since he won the club B&F it would appear he has played OK.
I do agree with the Suns' holding their ground though with his contract given he has taken a front loaded deal from all reports. The Cats are notoriously tight at the trade table but the Suns will call Ablett's bluff for sure as they should. I don't think he has done anything wrong at this stage but how he handles himself in the next couple of weeks will be important.
All my impressions of Gary Jnr are of a respectful and genuine young man. He may not have been the right leader the Suns needed but that isn't his fault, nor is the terrible culture that seems to have been created up there.
I am an atheist but I find the comments re his religion in a previous post pretty poor form
