Surprised you didn't mention Tom McDonald's weird cult follower view of Jordan B. Peterson, beyond just reading his book and watching a full videos. Went on an IPA podcast just to talk about IPA and his twitter is just him liking "only meat diet" posts. Funnily enough, McDonald's footy career on pretty much the same cycle as Jordan B. Peterson's actual life.

Didn’t he get the bottom 50 lifetime achievement award last year?

Yep - he has transcended Bottom 50 lists, and I like to think his GF performance vindicated the award.
 
Player #37 - Paul Puopolo

Pictured: Hey Tom, don't forget to poke some holes in the lid of the jar so he can breathe

Paul Puopolo was a Hawthorn small small forward who was largely known for playing football instead of being delicious, whatever the hell that actually means.

At 173cm he was drafted as a mature aged recruit, just the way Hawthorn like them. He started his career in defence then was thrown forward where he proved effective for a long time, and only marginally so in 2019 where he kicked 10 goals but laid a lot of tackles by being second to the ball.
Of course, all that meant Clarko gave him a one year extension which was bad call at the time and worse in hindsight.

Poupolo is known as 'Poppy', and we're hoping that's a play on words rather than any sort of link to illegal Dingley opium dens. This year he played 6 games, of which he scored one solitary goal in his first five games. He was given a farewell game against a Suns outfit that had completely mentally checked out as they were unfamiliar that the words "September" and "football" actually could be combined into a single coherent sentence.

Poppy had his best game in, well, years in his farewell - he kicked 3 goals to go with 11 disposals and even took two marks. Long suffering Hawks fans (or fan, if you stick to the bay) finally had something to cheer about this year and Poppy got to leave the game on a high. That also took his season tally to four, which is one more than GWS scored in the 2019 Grand Final. Completely irrelevant to Poppy but enjoyable to remember anyway.

During lockdown Poppy mentioned in an interview he enjoyed doing the simple things, like mowing the lawn and some gardening. That opens a potential 2021 assistant coaching gig at either the Bulldogs or North, where grass cutting has occurred in the past.

Paul, Poppy, enjoy retirement and welcome to the Bottom 50 for 2020.

You know what they say... you can lead a horticulture but you can't make her think

I'm sure Clarko won't make the same mistake again. He'll learn his lessons and won't let, say, Shaun Burgoyne play another season.

Nice contrast between the picture and the bolded.

We got good value from him over the years, ol' Mighty Mouse. But sadly, once the end came he really struggled. Don't think he left much on the shelf, but was lucky to get as many games as he did this year (except the final one).

What little he left on the shelf was left on the top shelf, the poor, little bugger.
