I always saw him as potentially a quality AFL defender who just never got the chance. A lot of what ifs with Casboult

 

[Styxx]

I am convinced every team board has wanted their coach sacked this year.

has also announced his retirement.

Strange timing, deserves a day of his own to celebrate really.

Dusty announced his retirement, effective immediately.

One of the all time greats.

I rate players that perform in big games and when needed the highest.

No one has been better than Dusty at this in the last 20 years. His 2019 season was one of the best ever

 

[Aphrodite]

An amazing player and outstanding career.

All the best Dusty!

 

[tarczonandjane]

I’m stoked that Dusty has retired as a one-club player. There is still something to be said for being a great at just the one club. What a gun. An amazing career.

[Sector 7G]

Amazing how he became an A grader at 28-30yrs old when Hocking made the change no one had asked for to allow players to push in the back.

 

[DigbysLovechild]

Well done to Dusty and Hawkins, absolute stars. Also glad Dusty retired a one club player.

On a completely different topic, is there any chance the absolute clowns running the show could release the days/times of games for the final round? It's 2 and a half weeks away FFS. They treat the fans with utter contempt.

Just a gut feel (I could be completely wrong), but I think they’re giving it a test run to see how close they can go to running a permanent floating fixture. I can understand your frustration though.

Richscum apparently with over 100 thousands members yet giving away tickets 2 for 1 against a fellow Victorian team this weekend….

I believe that the days/times for the final round will be released tomorow.

It's ridiculous though how late the AFL leave this - the airlines apparently have already worked them out and adjusted their fares accordingly.

Cripps being held again…….

 

[Wickzki]

Crazy that we got Dusty's second last game and if Hawkins plays the last game of the season before finals (Geelong list him as out for two weeks) his second last home and away game.

Both deserved legends.

Knew this was going to be on the cards, our season may come down to this game as to whether we stay in the 8, so they prolong the agony and build up the pressure for a Sunday twilight or evening game

Question for the learned posters around here:

My family and I live in Brisbane. A different media market to Melbourne and not as much exposure to Eddie McGuire. I was watching the Olympics yesterday morning with my 9 year old daughter when Eddie comes on the tv. “Who’s that dude?” she asked, in a scornful voice.

What should have been my response?

I could try but I kind of like posting around here and don't want a ban...

A racist piece of (insert your choice of expletive) would probably give her the right idea.

Are you surprised at all?

I will never forget during covid when they moved our MCG Home game against that Rabble to Marvel.
