Mitch Robinson announces retirement

[killtaker1993]

Why wouldn't old man Fagan let Mitch, a legend of the club and a champion of the game, announce his retirement to the other Brisbane blokes?

Absolutely bloody disgrace

 

[Osho]

I guess his career is dead and we bid farewell?
He always struck me as an absolute tosser. Lacking class and style. Uncontrolled mouth. A real trier.

At least he still has his fortnite

Congrats to Mitch on a great career. Sad that more of it wasn't in Navy

Very much doubt that’s the case. No reason Fagan wouldn’t allow him to do it at the right time.

This is just a case of Robinson having a tantrum and looking for someone to blame after being deservedly dropped from the side for the last two finals.

Fagan has always drawn praise from Robinson and seemingly been good to him so it’s pretty poor to publicly whinge about the coach as the final act of your career.

Robinson has never been known for his intelligence though so s**t judgement and behaviour here is hardly surprising.

He did weeks ago via the media




Then yesterday



"Wouldnt let me announce it to the fans"

Told them weeks ago

Yeah sure.

Was he an emergency for the next two games?

How did he know the Richmond game was going to be his last Brisbane we’re still in the finals?

This whole thing seems confusing to me.

Posted it on another thread - he’s clearly dropped his bundle when he got told he’s not getting another deal, shot his mouth off.

Then he’s probably asked if he can address the group before the final….and Fagan has told him not the time. Dropped his bundle again.

Note: All he talks about is his last game for Brisbane - I don’t think he is ‘retiring’ here. He likely thinks he’s still got something in the tank and may get another go.

At 33.

Read the room Robbo…

Bit of a sour end to a great stint, was a real fan favourite.

Not relevant as they 100% knew it was his final Gabba game.

Mundy got the carry off in Perth then played another 2 games.

Obviously Mundy is a God but I think Robinson still deserved a Gabba farewell.

Ok fair enough, if the issue is it about being his last game at the Gabba and not being able to announce that then that’s pretty s**t he couldn’t do that.

Was that funnier in your head before you typed it ?

He will be remembered for all his things, and the many stuff he did.
And didn't do.

The nuance there is he says it's his "last game at the gabba", so he's left the door open for coming back to the seniors. But even if that happened it wouldn't be at the gabba.
