It's becoming quite the norm though isn't it.

I think he'll go on next year but I don't think it's the best thing for the Kangaroos.
With Harvey 38, Petrie and Waite 33, Firrito and Dal Santo 32, Wells 31, Ray, Thompson and Gibson 30 and with Swallow, Nahas, Thomas, Higgins and Goldstein all over 29 next year they've got an old list. Who of those will pull the pin though?
Petrie looks cooked, Firrito looks the only other likely retiree. So they might have 12 over or nearing 30 on their list next year.

It is all about maximising merchandising opportunities, so while I get your point. He is doing the right thing by the club in that respect.

Of those I would say Petrie, Firrito, Ray and Nahas will al be gone this year. Harvey, Waite and maybe Dal Santo the following year. Just a guess.

Don't know if its becoming the norm.
Only the 4th player to play 400 AFL games - probably worthy of a commemorative guernsey, yes?
This year, at age 38, breaks the ALL TIME AFL games played record - again, worthy of the club to celebrate with a "427" guernsey - surely?
Also, the head of marketing/merchandising at the club would be out on their arse if the club didn't try & maximise commercial sales on memorabilia for these special occasions.

Hope he doesnt do a knee or shoulder or something in the next couple weeks, would just about put the cash strapped roos out of business or at least down to Tassie permanently
