Better to talk down the future projections and over achieve rather than keep promising things that don't get delivered ala Richmond. I think it may well happen inside 4 years however.

I think you are right, but I hope you're not wrong

How'd it go? Did they spend at least 30 seconds on it or...?

Wasn't too bad, each of them gave him pretty glowing remarks on how good he's been. Had a signed jumper for sale too

Here's a touching video tribute to Pav, with messages from quite a few of the other AFL captains - including Shannon Hurn, Joel Selwood, Tex Walker, Tom Rockliff, Nick Riewoldt, Scott Pendlebury, Bob Murphy, Travis Boak, Marc Murphy, Phil Davis and Jarrad McVeigh

How good was that!! Morris from the Dogs has an article on the AFL site too. Said he highly respects Pav & looking forward to one last battle

May have cried a bit when pav got a bit emotional.

“Personally, I think there’s two great tragedies in football,” he said.
“One is Pav not winning a premiership and the other is dad not being able to watch the Dockers win one.”

Phil Davis is left with enduring memories of losing his first contest with Pav and the beautiful bit of advice from the great man "Phil, just remember, you gotta watch the ball." Love it.

Shannon Hurn doesn't come across as very bright from that video... Loved Tex and Phil Davis' message. Bob Murphy's "King of purple hearts" line was great too

Hurn is a simple country lad but I don't mind him. Murphy is definitely a cool dude though.

I notice Pav's last game has pushed nic Nat off the front page of The West.

[E Shed]

Beautifully said Nathan.

 

[Purple dynamite]

That'll be you in 2017 Fyfey!

 

[freoextra]

That'll be you in 2017 Fyfey!

I really hope so, we need that change in direction and a little inspiration.

 

[wayToGo_]

That'll be you in 2017 Fyfey!

Hopefully not the retirement bit

 

[Scham]

That blokes Captain material!

Expecting some gratitude when we move heaven and earth to ensure full coverage of Pav's big day. It's a Fox game too

Gratitude for what? Acting like a competent broadcaster for once? Showing a legend his dues? It's like he thinks this is all one big favour.

Hey Barich, you're a cant.

Oh **** off and gargle on a giant sack of testicles Barich you box-headed waste of space.

Obviously couldn't move heaven and earth to secure a live telecast. 40-minute delay ftw!

That's a nice article! I didn't know the history of banners & stuff. Unfortunately we don't get much say in them though
