Message: [QUOTE="Flutterby, post: 2168618, member: 1853"] Just because they gave him the heads up doesn't mean he took it. People can bet pretty stubborn especially when it comes to the end of their career. They could very well have said something like "Matty given your form we really don't see that we can continue to select you, you've been a great ambassador for our game so given our feelings on your continued selection, we'd really like to give you the opportunity to retire and go out with some dignity". To which he may have gone "F*** you! I'm just in a bit of a slump, I'll turn it around. I'm not done yet." You get the idea. Not saying that's what has happened in Hayden's case but I know of a number of players in a number of sports where this has been the situation and in the end the selectors have had no option but to drop them cold.
