Past #10: Ben Cunnington - will retire from the AFL after * game - 238 games/95+ goals/2x Syd Barker Medalist/Shinboner - thanks for everything Cunners

[Snake_Baker]

Unusually emotional. I sense his hard work was validated last night and that this B&F meant the most to him.

One thing we can't doubt is his love for North. He's definitely one of us.

Enjoyed McGowan’s article on him this morning. Particularly about him contacting Higgo and Goldy when their futures were being speculated. A text from Cunners is probably as rare and prestigious as a letter from the Queen.

Great piece.

Great article. Ben Cunnington sounds like a top quality guy. So pleased that he plays for North!

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

A very rare quality piece of football journalism.

Did he say on the red carpet he wouldn’t have minded being rubbed out for the tummy taps as he’d not have to go to the Brownlow.

He defines sternlook.

i actually called this when he started to do them. I had a feeling he was doing them subconsciously to not be on the Brownlow

he must hate it haha

what a superstar our cunners is!

I see his new hair is growing.

 

[The Warlord]

He's come back in bloody good nick.

I see his new hair is growing.

It would be a fantastic troll if he gets the treatment then shaves his head anyway. That’s the move

Already on him for a Brownlow podium finish

What odds? Through where?

 

[blackshadow]

He definitely looks ready to rumble.

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

Isn't Ben supposed to be donning Dreadlocks by now?

What odds? Through where?

It was $67 at Sportsbet. My bad, win only, not each way.

That’s why I asked. Hard to find place bets for Brownlow outside of that week.
All good.

He was at least $151-1 this time last year.

Slow progress on the re-afforestation of Cunner's cranium project so far.

 

[Snake_Baker]

s**t! He's hit the weights!

 

[Horizons_00]

Dem veins!
