Each morning after a game he felt like he'd been hit by a truck. He was starting to feel pretty flat.

The wheels had been in motion for a while. Took a long time to get out of second gear and couldn't deliver the same drive as in recent years

Now he can relax and re-charge his batteries. Not have to worry about carrying the team and all its passengers.

I'm looking hard but I can't see a pun here, none at all. Disappointing.

Probably best if he steers clear from the thread from now on. We don't want to go down that road.

OK the rest of you can shoot the statement down now....
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Looks like his AFL carrer has come to a dead end.

Carr was never quite the same after his appointment with the panel beater in the carpark at the Ramsgate, he also had issues with his air intake in the same incident.

He certainly hadn't been firing on six cylinders.
Seemed more like roadkill at times.
Since Allan Scott died, the club had no more Carr carriers.

The wheels have been falling off all year.
I wonder if he will get a motorcade farewell?
