Harper's being honest. You develop friendships over your tenure at a team. They don't just disappear when you leave. I remember Luke Ball, the St Kilda captain, got traded to Collingwood. The next year Collingwood beat St Kilda in the Grand Final. Look on his face said it all. Relief...and then nothing. His new mates celebrating while his old mates collapsed in disappointment with him having no idea how to feel. One thing I've noticed about Harper since he's been here for a year. He's a good dude. He's 'real'. It's not like a con artist or used car salesman feeding you a line of crap and just telling you what you want to hear. He's 'genuine' - and that's what this city likes. Just give 100% and play - back up your words with your actions. If you underperform sure you may hear some boos - but the vast majority here appreciates hustle and wearing your heart on your sleeve - we just want to see you're trying and giving your all. I had the wrong impression of him when he was down in D.C. - thought he was going to be an arrogant primadonna - he's the complete opposite.
