Toast Charlie Dixon Retires

[backtozero]

What's with all the 'he wrecked his body for us'

Between key forwards at Port

Lockwood was crippled with a bad back from a young age.
Tredrea couldn't even manage a brisk jog by his late 30s and won't be able to play footy with his kids
Schulz played a game with severe internal bleeding and went to the ICU instead of the plane back home for a week, and also is suffering with CTE.
Cummings got a bit fat and Hodges lost his glorious but understated mullet

Dixon just might be the one to finish career in the best condition.

This just in: other players also experience injuries.

Jesus had a better beard.

Better at nailing things too.

Remember when Eddie Dingle (cant tag him anymore ) kept nailing his dick to the desk with supreme accuracy?

Dwayne Russell will be most disappointed King Charlie is not going on next year. Injury prevented Charlie reaching the lofty heights that Dwayno thought was possible in 2024.

Was a beast at his best. Injury derailed him at his peak but he still rebounded to be an All Australian for the first time at 30. Irrespective of the result and his inaccurate kicking, I still think his performance in the 2017 EF is the best finals performance from a Power player ever. And despite what many here think, he's one guy who visibly gave his all every week and always looked broken in defeat. All the best and thanks for giving it your all Charlie.

Beastmode in the 2017 EF. One of the most spectacular games I've seen from a Port player. He couldn't convert and we lost a knockout final at home. Sums us up really. Mouthing off to Norwood fans was class. Enjoy retirement Charlie.

What? His performance was good, but it was no Tredrea sick and puking game day, shouldn't have even been at the game, let alone playing, effort against Essendon to lead his team to victory in a final.

Imagine thinking any of these performances hold a candle to Mel Michael in a losing side 2004 GF, you fricken dimwits

He gives off the vibe he's staying in Adelaide, the grudge set up & living up the hills seems to agree with him.

Quick drive down the freeway to the Bend.

Pic for effect



150 odd games
250 odd goals

Three times leading goalkicker
One All Australian

Could you imagine when we have an actual champion retire? If Robbie Gray retired these days I think I'd never want to see him again after the social media onslaught.

Maybe should be in the social meadja thread.

If only there were one singular thing the PAFC could change to remove 99% of the toxicity between it and its supporters.

Alas

FWIW Tredrea, Primus, C Cornes, they all had supporters saying they were cooked and should retire at the end of their careers. They didn't recieve the ridicule that Dixon did because they weren't a critical piece of a disaster gameplan who would openly disparage supporters pleading for said system to change.

FWIW Tredders was definitely a critical part of a bad gameplan in 2006-7-8, arguably 9 too despite his great season.

He's alive and well, just not on here anymore.

He's good. Spent a couple of days/nights at his place after the Sydney PF loss. Cooks a good steak.

He was, but he got out as soon as he could, ie Christmas 2021.

His missus is a senior executive with a top 10 ASX company and even though HQ is in Melbourne, they let her work from home and the Sydney office HQ, and she travels down to Melbourne a couple of times a month.

Very interesting words by Charlie at the end there.

What a w@nker

Andrews had him executed for listening to Ween

Me and Dingle bonded over African Disco.

Unlike a certain nameless troglodyte, Nick Haynes had the class to thank the fans.

What is bad support?
