What a great career! Congratulations to the champion player who was traded by Fremantle to Adelaide for Chris Groom....... One of the fairest and most skillful players to play the game.

We all know what a champ he was, but if he’d played for a Melbourne based club, his status would have been a bit higher IMHO.

Absolute joy to watch. Silky skills, and uncanny reading of the play. I’d rate him above Buckley, probably the main reason is he was more of a match winner.

Ohh ya mean like those tools who rated silvagni a better full back than Mc intosh. What was the love affair with SOS, full back of the century???, purrrrrrlease!!

Yeah, he has slipped under the radar in retiring.. a real magician of a player… silky skills and of course he hates Lleyton Hewitt, the man can do no wrong. A shame to see it all over !
