Oh ****, I'm tearing up. :( Gutted to see Cogs and Browny (and JB) go, but if the blokes that replace them can be the players the both of them would have been sans injury I'll be a happy man.
if they could be half the players Brown and Cogs were in there prime we would be alright.
Is it just me or does it seem the retirement age is becoming even lower in the AFL after this year?

And I'm not just talking about our team but a fair few players have been delisted/retired and it seems they age is slowly getting younger.
just goes to show we need to appreciate Richo while we still have him.

I think you're right, seems to be that there is a real emphasis on preparing the new recruits to be ready to play seniors on arrival at the club.

Browny, people can bag you as much as they like, but on ability and talent, at your peak, you were 1 of the best of all time.

All the best mate.

And Cogs, all i can say is that for the past 5 years i have had no.24 on my back, and its never coming off.

Absolute champion mate. Pitty you werent in a better side.

Bump because I just heard what Nathan Brown said on the footy show.

Was too drunk on Friday night to see the post game stuff, so didn't notice how emotional the boys were walking off the field.

Thnik there were a few tears there
