Ricciuto announces retirement

[Adz]

What the title says.

Great player.

 

[Atomboy]

Bollocks !.

Loved the way the Ro played, tough, hard and fair.

Also loved the way he cleaned up Selwood.

Good work the Roo

 

[Ari]

Damn

I guess we all knew it was coming.

Absolute legend of the game.

 

[ashley12]

Fantastic Player

Will be missed

 

[plugger47]

Tremendous player. And will take the appreciation of many with him into retirement for having sisboy stretchered off.

 

[cruiser]

My favourite non Swans player. Champion. Spunk. Damn shame he's had such a tough finish with injuries.

 

[notting18]

A great player - one of many that will go this year.

 

[Eagle87]

A great player.

A really great leader.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

champion but doesn't make the top 4 as far as skill goes with retirments this year.

Voss (technically), Hird, Buckley, Harvey

Shows how much these players will be missed next year.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Fantastic player and always seems like a genuine, good person too. A great credit to himself and his club, who leaves with a deserved two premierships, club captaincy and the respect of the football world.

You're an idiot mate.

 

[Altum Volantes]

For real this time or did Ben Hudson just forget his watch again?

If so, so long to an absolutely sensational player, a champion.

Like a lot of the other blokes who should have pulled the pin last year, it's a shame he's ended his career injury plagued. That said, going out at the end of his '06 would have been pretty crappy too.

 

[chipper]

Bugger.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

You're an idiot mate.

Thanks, that means a lot to me.

I'm just saying how much the game wil miss the retirees of this year.

 

[The Floodbuster]

The heart and Soul of the Adelaide Football Club.
Disappointing he had to leave the game on a sour note, would of loved to see him have a farewell game.
Adelaide's greatest of all time.

IMO it should be the big 5.
He's won 2 premiship something Buckley and harvey failed to do.
Brownlow, 8 time all australian. Bloke is an absolute freak.

 

[Twinkletoes]

Sad news if true. This bloke has earnt the utmost respect of all people who love their footy, both friend and foe.

You'll be missed champ!

He's definitely one of the opposition players I've always held at the pinnacle. Seems like a top bloke as well.

All the best Roo

T'toes

 

[Fatboooy]

Great player, great bloke. Will be sad to see him go.

And not to sound like a tool / negative, but he only won 1 flag.

 

[juddy_Like]

Real Shame really.

Well done on an awesome career.

 

[peppy la pew]

Another great player to hang up their boots, I'm sure he will enjoy the next phase of his life .

Cheers, to a man who led from the front

 

[King Elvis]

Just stating facts Fatboy, he was unlucky, but obviously you're right.

When is the Press Conference?

 

[Mojo]

Damn

I guess we all knew it was coming.

Absolute legend of the game.

I didn't! I was happy being ignorant! I am truely sad..

 

[Warwick]

Great player.


And we are getting rid of the grand final parade why? Imagine Voss, Buckley, Hird, Ricciuto, Kouta, etc, all having one last lap of the G together.

 

[jimmy15_]

Out and out champion, AFL loses another great player this year.

 

[SMOO]

IMO it should be the big 5.
He's won 2 premiship something Buckley and harvey failed to do.
Brownlow, 8 time all australian. Bloke is an absolute freak.

1 premiership
