Retiring Sonny Sets

[Tonga Bob]

A sad day but one that was unfortunately coming. Go well champion.

 

[Bastyy]

Looked good in that one pre-season match he got and I thought he could give us some final contributions, but that is how football goes I guess. One of the best to ever do it, that 2019 run he had was generational.

 

[Freoforever86]

One of My fav players for a long time. Absolute gun at his best.

The one hand pickup goal on the right in the elim final v the Dogs got me off my seat as quick as the Hill goal in Geelong.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

S-Tier title Mr Bob.

Incredible career that hopefully continues on after footy at the club somehow.

 

[gungho]

What a career! Still desperately needed around the club for humour, mirth and guidance for the young guys.

 

[Tonga Bob]

S-Tier title Mr Bob.

Is this a good thing?

 

[ubiquitous226]

We knew it was coming, but it still hurts.

What a champion.

 

[Mogumber]

So Sad! I love him.
We'll beat Sydney now I reckon

 

[Bulldogs85]

Congratulations on a great career for Sonny loved watching him play

 

[The Feeder Club]

That's a sad bit of news. He played a beautiful game and had a huge brain to match. I hope he thinks of coaching.
Thank you M Walters

 

[go_the_dockers]

A sad way to go out.

Unbelievable player

 

[dexter_]

will miss that beautiful left foot kick

 

[Eski3]

Very sad, but he had a significant impact on the club that and leaves a legacy behind him. Hope he stays involved with the club

 

[gungho]

He's in my top 5 Freo players of all time. Only behind Pav, Fyfe and Mundy.

 

[kingswood71]

Sad to see the legend retire, but not unexpected
Just a shame there wasnt one more game for him to play so we fans could say goodbye

 

[Fat Nyfe]

One of my favourite ever players, brought me so much joy watching Freo. Thanks Sonny

 

[The Emporer]

Thank you Son Son, memories of you skill and passion will last forever as a legend of Fremantle Football Club
I have enjoyed your journey as much as anyone, so all the best in retirement knowing your love of Fremantle will keep you close by.

 

[Achin joints]

My favourite player .Hope he stays with the club in some capacity. Thanks Sonny

 

[wakojako]

Damn was not expecting this. I know he had some injury setbacks but thought he would be a chance to play finals?

 

[TimN2]

Sad to see the legend retire, but not unexpected
Just a shame there wasnt one more game for him to play so we fans could say goodbye

I know it's stupidly sentimental of me, but I'd love to see him named as the sub for a home game, with the full knowledge that he won't be on the park, just in the rooms with the team and doing the banner run through one last time.

 

[Moist Biscuit]

2019 Sonny was a top 5 player. Change my mind.

 

[freo_leo29]

Sad day for footy

Deserved atleast a game this year

An absolute star, his peak in 2019 was phenomenal.

 

[freoextra]

Just one of my all time favorites to watch, no better player to kick the crucial goal, a legend of our club.

 

[Quiexo]

Genuinely saddened by this, thanks for the memories Sonny!

 

[Hazelsnuts]

When Sonny sat at the Sponsors Dinner and spoke about one day sitting around the fire and telling the kids he played with the great man Nat Fyfe…
Well Son Son, I like many others have already had my time around the fire saying how good a player you are and passionate you are for your family and culture.
We have a proud indigenous history at Freo, but you Sonny are the epitome of one the greatest player’s, you are a connector and father figure to everyone- black, white, yellow and any other shade - But Purple is your heart and soul colour to our club…
We love ya and will miss your passion for the club on field…your off field life continues and I can’t wait to see what you can contribute to the wider community and the legacy that be created…
Go well into retirement Nyoongar brutha …
