Nice that he gets to retire at home

I suggests he walks off at half time and joins his old man in the Glenelg Past Players and Officials Day function

Free Beer!!.

Never forget him ripping Port apart at Glenelg as a 17yo kicking 4 (i think) from the wing.

On ya Bryce. Great knock. Fitting that he's playing the Bays too in honour of his old man.

For me, I didn't expect him to return to the SANFL at all. He had every right to go to the country and enjoy the $$'s that AFL 200 game player can provide. But he did and for more than a year, so it wasn't a fly by night commitment.

Much like Rose and Broadbent last week, no great surprise that Bryce is hanging up the boots. Was immense in 2021, injury ruined 2022 after half a dozen games, while he's been serviceable this year without having the influence of prior years. As mentioned above, to commit three seasons to the SANFL after a lengthy AFL career is to be admired.

Didn't he go to South because they were able to offer him a job with the club as a youth development officer.

The multiple interviews he had with Glenelg at the time (before choosing South) could only be described as strange, weird & very different.

The compulsory self-defence lessons and kevlar vest are expensive though.
