    The lower profile players make the same sacrifices.

      Giving them even more reason to go around the G on the last day of the September of their careers with the kids in tow.
      Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
      Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

          An outstanding career and now I can admire him openly and not feel guilty.

          A real changing of the guard in footy this year.

              With both Buckly and Clement retiring at the Pies, that have lost plenty of experience for next season.

              Bucks was an outstanding player and like many champions of the game previously, retires without a premiership medal.
              Swannies for life!

                Whereas, Paul Bevan will have one when he retires.

                  That's the saddest bit. He's won just about everything else.

                    I heard on SEN yesterday that : 40 players had retired this year(including Voss) with a combined games tally of 7,711 !!!! That is one HUGE amount in any ones thinking

                      it's also amazing that not one of them is a swan (good in some ways i suppose though) - i've sort of become used to one rather important player leaving in recent years (williams, ball) so it's quite strange!!

                          Why couldnt Bucks go to Europe for some hammy treatment like Max Rooke?,it seemed to work for him.
                          Now this is a thread that i would expect on the ego -centric, wank session that is redandwhiteonline.com...

                            Could be an age thing?

                                Is that the voice of experience talking?
