Though this was needed. Well done to harvs equalling burkes all time game record on saturday of 321 games.

Harvs, the last player currently on a list to play in the 1980's. (i'm pretty sure that's true, well that's what they said in the MX.)
 
It is fitting that Rob Harvey will equal the club record for games played.
It is also poignant that he takes the record from one of his long term team mates and personal friend, Nathan Burke.

It's hard to put into words just how much a man like Harves means to us all. Harvey, Loewe and Burke just made life bearable during the many hard times.

The season is really on the line and he deserves a flag. Let's hope the boys realise that the chance that they have doesn't come along often and understand why a 34 year old man that has won almost every personal award there is runs himself into the ground week in week out.

Having said that I do reckon today belongs to Thommo. What a fantastic story he has been, making his debut as a 24 year old and carving out a 200 game AFL career based on sheer hard work.

We can spend next week paying tribute to the great man. Providing he gets through the game he'll break the record in front of 45,000+ supporters at Telstra Dome next week.
