Similar in the sense that he left the club which drafted him after one year. The specifics are different, I agree.I don't boo and agree unnecessary, however Buckley's situation was entirely different to JHF.
Buckley tried to challenge the draft system as he didn't want to go to another state, he wanted to play in Victoria and this was well known at the time.
He made a deal with Brisbane that he would play there and then be able to go to the club of his choice the next year.
