Toast Brad Ebert a true warrior

[tangolikelama]

That was tough to see. Pretty clear he's called it quits. Hope he has no long term damage.

 

[edgie]

I can't bring myself to pay respects right now.

Maybe tomorrow.

I think somehow we all knew that Ebo was likely to go out this way.
His last act was just to give his all with no thought for his safety.

Almost shed a tear seeing Ebert wobbling. Gutted the team couldn't get it done for him.

 

[Rendaw]

He gave everything to this club and will be remembered for it

 

[It Just Is]

If that is his last match, he played a blinder. Legend.

 

[El Zorro]

I thought he was BOG tonight. Ebert is Port Adelaide, simple.

I think your right.

His last act summed him up.

I hope he can lead a healthy life, and carries on in a coaching capacity.

 

[elbarton]

Went back with the flight to spoil, and get crunched, in the last play of his career to keep the ball and game alive for Port. Gave everything.

 

[Fizzler]

Hurt so much to watch, a true warrior for our club. Sad that he’ll probably have to end it now after such a match. Just awful.

That Ebert chant was epic.

Got me in the feels more than the loss. Absolutely gutted.

 

[The Rubber Man]

If any act could have got us over the line it was that one.
Unfortunately it didn't. But he is a warrior
If he didn't have these concussions, would definitely want him to go on, but I worry for his health if he does.

I'm sure he will make the right decision

I’m filthy. Umpires stunk and our veterans cost him a flag

 

[PAFC_1870]

Shouldn't have to pay for a drink ever again.

Put his body on the line like few before him.

Legend.

 

[PPort]

So long Brad

 

[Cobbler]

Was hoping someone started a thread about this.

The way he pointed to his legs on the bench as if to say ‘they just won’t work’ was beyond upsetting.

I was a neutral hoping for a good game but that one act and the 5 point margin had me going for Port to win by a point and have this act forever etched in the memories of footy followers to show it wasn’t for nought.

 

[Ports1870]

I almost burst into tears when he wobbled off. I think everyone knew it was it at that point.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

You‘ve done more then enough Ebo, a champion to the end.

 

[spookism]

Should be etched in folklore that last act he did for Port.

I don't even care if he wants to play on, he needs to retire for his own safety.

 

[Capital Power]

Gutted when he went off. You could see the emotion in the realisation he wasn't going to be part of a Premiership. Left nothing on the park and was a huge part in our resurgence this year.

 

[RustyCage]

If that’s the last we see of Ebo on the field for us, he goes out with absolute courage, skill and selflessness in that last contest. Exactly how he deserves to be remembered.

 

[raman]

Sorry your club failed you.

 

[ize_]

Absolute champion. Has always been one of my favourite players. So underrated, but only enhanced his reputation tonight. Really felt for him at the end of the game. You guys must be so proud.
