GOOOOO - job well done.

Holy crap, how young does he look in 2000!! Time flies.

 

[Hodginator]

Well done Goo. You can retire a happy man as a two-time Hawthorn premiership player. Thanks for the memories!

Can he come back in 2014 for one game so that he lines up Buddy, breaks something, Buddy becomes useless and then both retire in 2014.

Since your move from St Kilda in 2005, you have captured the hearts of Hawthorn supporters & members.
That you leave a 2-time premiership player, on your own terms, is more than a fitting reward for effort.
We will miss your booming kicks from fullback, and we will be forever grateful to the football Gods that you came to our team.
Brent Guerra, Goo - goodbye, farewell & amen!

I hope we can replace him, particularly his defensive game, which was underrated.

Doc?

 

[Hodgepodge]

Doc?

Doc at times has struggled to shut down players, for example Jamie elliott who was running riot before Guerra went onto him.

Gooooooooo! Loved your approach to footy and some of your kick ins were sublime. Great to see you on the winners dias. Thoroughly deserved. Well done and good luck.

 

[dixyland]

Love your work Goo. An inspiration to the team, a tireless worker who was hard as nails. Enjoy your post footy life!

A Hawthorn warrior, will be missed, Good luck mate.

Pleasure to watch you Goo, primed himself for one last finals assault and now retires a 2 time premiership player, absolute star and a rock in our team.

 

[Argy]

Happy he got two!

Well done Goo. Warrior.

He has 100% success winning grand finals!

Will be greatly missed. An extremely underrated defender with the ability to hit a target on the move from 50+ metres is extremely hard to replace. Sad to see him go but good on him for bowing out on such a high. A prime example of a recycled player that can go on to have a brilliant career.

Will miss ya Goo.

 

[Joey Seaside]

Lol, that is really something

That is absolutely awesome. The Goo curse!

 

[Joey Seaside]

Never lost a Grand Final either.

Sad to see him go but like Crawf he went out on a high.

And I think that would still be true if he'd played in the one he missed...

 

[MinerBoy]

Hard as nails with beautiful skills. Was a joy to watch.

Finished his career with a share of goal of the year too. Was just as much his goal as Buddy's.

Thanks for the memories Goo. True Hawk champ.

 

[Jables]

Our kick ins just got worse no matter who takes them
Underrated player his whole career.

 

[nickrebellious]

Goo has passed the rug onto a fellow defender.

 

[Willie_Rioli]

ah crap! didn't want to hear this. am such a big fan of Guerra. he embodies all the reasons we've been such a good side and won 2 flags. such a crucial part of our defence: hard as F**K, cool head and dependable kick. He's the classic unsociable hawks and will be missed. Unfortuantely we don't have anyone to replace his mould of player, and actually reckon Guerra is a bigger loss than Buddy.
but good on him for bowing out on a high and on his own terms. and what a fantastic player he's been for us!

 

[brownngold]

Well done Goo !How can i forget your rushed behinds in 08 GF !!

 

[Joey Seaside]

Yeah, Goo leaving is so sad...but I was kind of expecting it. I loved those moments when he bobbed up just outside 50 with the ball and on the run.

WATCH OUT OPPOSITION!

 

[bugalugs213]

Sad to see him go his hardness at the ball and the poor bugger trying to mark it or carry it will be missed.
Thanks for the memories and the effort over the years Goo.

 

[PottSie2]

Really saddened by this news. It's like this champion team is coming to it's end.

But so happy for him to go out on top. Am really gonna miss his suredness deep in defense and his precise kicking and risk taking!!

Big loss for us, but all the best!

Congrats on an awesome career Goo. You will be sorely missed, both by the club and the fans. A true hawks warrior who never took a backward step when faced with a challenge.
