CibbuanoKnights douses Lovett speculation

ESSENDON coach Matthew Knights has dimissed suggestions that midfielder Andrew Lovett has been told that he won't be playing at the club next season.
It was reported late on Friday that the Bombers had already made a decision to trade Lovett at the end of the season but Knights said these reports were incorrect.
"Andrew is a contracted player so basically there is no definitive decisions made whatsoever to a player that is under contract," Knights said.
"I have spoken to Andrew about how the year has gone and also where we are heading as a club, but discussions about the future are between Andrew and myself," Knights said.
"I am not sure it is fair on any of our players to discuss futures in public and in the media. Andrew has got a contract and we will deal with whatever is on the horizon when the time comes."
