Thanks for everything Charlie and wish you all the best in the future.
I dont agree with everything you said, but I do know you put 110% of yourself out there and when all is said and done thats the part Ill remember most.
Definitely going at the right time, but you will always be a Port man.

That was the cross country chuck period where he was always too gassed to kick straight.
Is that your Dixon viewing material?
Craig McRae today on SEN did his normal scheduled gig he does there weekly and at the end he wanted to thank the Collingwood fans for all their support this year and that he loves the club and he can't wait for next year.
When have you ever heard Ken Hinkley thank the fans let alone Dixon...
Yeah, but what has he ever done?

Thanks for retiring Charlie
Disparaging comments to supporters and his form the last two years has taken some gloss off, but damned if he wasn’t one of the best players to watch when in his prime.
Can’t ever accuse him of not giving it his all, just happened to be too emotionally tied to a coach who ultimately curtailed the potential heights of his career.

3 goals 6 points resulting in an EF loss says it wasn’t.
It was a dominant display but lacked execution, his point blank running into goal check side point was the icing on the cake.

Thanks for your service, Charlie. You will forever remain in my mind as a cautionary tale to never hitch one's wagon to the epitome of mediocrity that is Hinkley.
Look players, you'd better love us fans unconditionally, even when we hurl abuse at you, your coach and your teammates. If you ever say the wrong thing when attempting to stand up for your coach and teammates, you will be dead to us.
This sorta attitude is why the club will ignore voices of dissent, because it's so unreasonable and short-sighted. You have every right to be annoyed at the comments he made years ago, you're very welcome to not like the guy if you want, but he ruined his body over many years for his team and our club. So ignoring all the good he did just because you've held a ridiculous and unhelpful grudge is cringeworthy.
All the best Charlie moving forward, but please don’t shit on us die hard supporters on your way out.
Cheers,
Cheers,
BLOODY TRUE THIS!!

Nuh, it will either be Suttcliffe or Boak
... jesus
Was gonna say this. One of the most incredible performances I've witnessed by a player live. Will sadly be remembered for him being absolutely gassed by the time he was marking the ball inside 50.

Hmmmm watching his highlights package made me look back more fondly at his time with us. Was a good player and servant, although the last 2 seasons weren't the most pleasant to watch, and his attitude towards the fans wasn't the best. Deep down I did feel a bit when the Bronx cheers came out in the qualifying final, but that's footy I suppose. Enjoy your retirement and cars.

I mean you can be smart about it but it is very emblematic of both where the club is at and Charlie Dixon's past form when it comes to the fans. It's not being mentioned for nothing.
Good on ya Charlie.
Always gave your all.
You were tough to love some times.
Good luck for the future.

Always gave everything between the sirens, that can't ever be questioned.
I will choose to remember times like, early in his Port career, 2017 or 18, a game vs West Coast at Subiaco, he led out from the goal square, clunked everything, and kicked a handful of goals. Was a dominant traditional FF game. That's the type of thing he was capable of, but unfortunately for reasons well discussed already, he rarely produced in a Port jumper.
