Fireman Kane

[Purple Suit]

Does anyone else find this incredibly strange?

Surely he lives and breathes the game. Why would he walk away when they are a chance to win the flag?

Port are obviously giving him the boot and trying to cover it up.

That's one theory or the is another hinted in your post.

Kane know's they are no chance as they just lost to West Coke. Therefore, no finals, no flag.

It's all rumour at this point, he's already been quoted in the media today saying he hasn't decided when he's finishing yet.

He's provided 15 years of service and almost 300 games, he deserves to go out on his own terms. It'll suck to lose him because he's still a great player, but it's not like he's quitting to take up some cushy job somewhere, it takes a fair bit of dedication and passion to join the MFS. Apparently there are intakes in June and September (3 weeks before the GF) this year, and then there might not be one for 3-4 years. If he wants to go he's better off leaving sooner than waiting till September and trying to walk away from a finals series.

I heard he likes to slide down big poles.

NTTAWTT.

Good on him.

Still an old campaigner though.

EFA.

The original campaigner in fact.

All hail Kane.
Now off to put his life on the line for you.

Shame he won't put his head over the ball

 

[Bodicifer]

You'd reckon he'd be attending a lot of burnt out car wrecks after Port losses !

I think he's concerned that Taylah Walker might actually follow through on his threats to burn down the houses of Crows players making a run for it.

 

[royals1922]

He is obviously not a fan of Talking Heads

LOL, Fireman Kane.

I played footy with a few fireys.

Great career to go into after a successful footy career.

Cant believe I'm saying this, but good luck Kane.

 

[BloodRet]

Kanepaigner.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Better than quitting AFL to wake people up on a Saturday morning by the knocking on the door....

 

[Hydrurga]

The bloke is living every young boy's dream, professional footballer and a fireman. Good on him I say!

yeah as someone who applied a few years ago, they get some 3-4000 applicants, often for only 20 or 30 positions. its a pretty hard place to get into.

there is no doubt that amstaff will immediately move to the appropriate precinct and burn his house to the ground

One of the better players in Doncaster's Divvy 2 EFL side.

Jeez he has a head like a loaf.

Needs a square helmet.

 

[elMM]

I'd marry Kane's wife... she seems like a lovely lady.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

He has a premiership medallion, but sadly he will retire without an Anzac Day medal.

 

[Amstaff]

Terrible troll... Just terrible.

And we all know how Collingwood supporters think that Anzac medals > Premiership medals.

Newsflash: that game is worth 4 points.... nothing more.

 

[HTPunter]

I like a good troll, but this one is losing me. 300 game player to retire and become a firefighter, sounds like a pretty constructive way to go out and then contribute to the community.

I'm sure there's an angle about selfishly playing on just so he can get 300 games, meanwhile stalling another players development.

And yes I'm aware about the obvious response to a North supporter, but that's why I reckon a Crows supporter should go with it.

 

[HTPunter]

Of course, outside of Bay 13, congratulations on a fantastic career and good luck with his future.

Maybe Collingwood could be generous and start a featured match every year with Port?
The prize could be the Tarpaulin Trophy.

The Hawthorn game works fine but thanks.
