they showed his farewell speech on 360, and when you have to admit that some guys might not like you on the field, you know you may have gone too far sometimes.

still though, great career, was a very good player.

Yeah he ruffled a few feathers but I think most players will say they learnt plenty from him. Unfortunately the club sold him a bit of a shit sandwich and because of that a lot of players respected him

Even in his farewell speech he had a crack. Very good football career, still think he's an absolute flog though.

Possibly. Woosha will be gone by halfway through the season unless we improve.
We wanted Caracalla but sounds like he is signing on for 2 more years at Richmond

Mason Redman has a confirmed fractured ankle from a training accident this morning. Was really hoping he would get a good go at it next year

It’s horrible news, but we need to remain positive. No doubt the lad can play and will prove himself at the top level.
