Toast Bryce Gibbs Appreciation Thread

[checkpoints]

Bryce thanks for being a shining light during our dark times. You'll always be a Blue Bagger!

Here's to future success with Adelaide...just not against Carlton!

 

[Gethelred]

Thank you Bryce, best of luck to you over there.

 

[jezzzza]

Farewell & good luck (except against the mighty CFC) Bryce.

Thanks for the memories and sticking with us through all the hard times

 

[Graffy4242]

Thanks for a wonderful career Bryce.

My 9y/o was crying this morning hearing that he was leaving.

Hope he tastes success with the Crows but he will always be a Blue for life.

 

[bluemahogany]

Excited for post Bryce Carlton - players to step up, over to you Doc and Crippa

 

[Moe B]

Still love ya Gibba, ultimate professional... played out the year even though you wanted to go back home! Good luck mate

 

[I bleed Blue]

Thanks for your years of service mate.

Will always be a blue and welcome back at the club any time you like.

Enjoy being home with your family. Hope you finish your career on a high with old mate Eddie and Sauce.

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Never felt he quite settled in at the Blues but a true pro to the very end.

Didn't bad mouth the club or sell us down the river. Will be happy to see him get a flag at the Crows.

Happy for Bryce, did the right thing by Carlton (unlike may others) and as far as I'm concerned should be always welcome at Carlton. Sadly I have to tell a 7 year old tonight that his favorite player is gone.

Yeah. My 4-year-old daughter has a Bryce Gibbs mobile (homemade) hanging over her bed... good thing she turns 5 soon.

 

[JustaBattler]

Best years as far as a shot at a flag goes ahead of you (and you get to be a local home town hero) - all the best to you and your family - always welcome back as a Blue - we can now start calling Adelaide "Carlton Light" ...

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Cheers for not dropping your standards in your final year Gibba. Good luck dealing with the jerks at Adelaide

 

[Bluechip66]

See ya Gibbsy.....all the best....great blues player.....say hi to Eddie & sauce....lol
Adelaide Blues....lol

 

[Sheephead]

Good luck champ and thanks for the memories. At the end of the day, no-one is bigger than the jumper. Good luck with the move home and the new family. I appreciate the man and the player you have been for this club. The way you handled yourself this year was truly professional. Say hi to Eddie and Sauce from the BigFooty faithful. Cheers.

Class act on and off the field, professional from day one and did the legacy of the number 4 at carlton proud, you can hold your head high on the way out Bryce 230 games in the navy blue makes you one of us for life............

 

[Mr_Plow]

Thanks for being an ultimate professional this year, Bryce.

Will miss those games (Geelong, Gold Coast) when you decide, "**** it, I'm going to dominate these campaigners today".

Hope you play 99 games, lose all games against Carlton but otherwise have success.

 

[slashin_velvet]

For how he carried himself this year after being denied a trade gets my absolute respect. Thank you for being a professional. You wont hear any boos from me!

 

[Blue Warrior]

Thanks Gibbsy for the last 11 years and 231 games all the best at Adelaide please don't play to well against us when we play you guys. Great Servant always welcome at the mighty Blues!

 

[Blue Doormat]

Thanks Bryce.

With Murph, have battled manfully to carry our midfield through some of our lowest times. Best of luck.

Hope you are the Shaun Burgoyne to Adelaide with the following caveats (go missing in games v Blues & play 99)

 

[azlou]

I’ll remember you’re celabrations with simpson and Murphy this year you have life long friends support at the blues best of luck bud

 

[TGR]

Cheers for not dropping your standards in your final year Gibba.

This! Shows the quality of the man. Absolute professional and will be missed.

 

[Quazza]

Thanks Bryce. You'll always be a Blue

 

[Tommy Alvin]

Gibbs,

Will always respect how you grew as a man and a professional footballer.

Good luck to you and your family.

Cheers,

TA

 

[bluekidjoe]

So appreciative of this man's commitment, endeavour and leadership. He was resilient and unwavering, and was a beacon of hope in the darkest days of our history.

I cannot express enough gratitude for what he's given us. I am so happy for him that at long last he, Lauren and Charlie get to return home.

All the best Bryce, here's to the next years of living your dream of playing for the Crows

 

[2ndeffort]

Thanks Gibba, will miss your vision and professionalism. Will be hard watching you play in another team's colours!
