With Brodie Smith dropped by Crows also, think both him and Charlie are both shot, think both will announce retirements before the season done.

My bad, I thought Dixon had retired at the end of last season.

Brodie won't. He has a trigger clause on games played to get another year, so while that is an option he won't retire.

Judging by his (alleged) reaction to almost being dropped last week, I would say not.

If he has not hit the target, then they are not playing him for the rest of season so they don’t have to give him another year :shock:

Yep, lost speed and agility, looks rushed all the time - when speed has been a big part of your game its a real problem

Time has definitely caught him.

Ball not disposed correctly of in 5 early tackles and no htb.

Might be a change in interpretation. Haven’t had one since last week.

I don’t think anyone would mind if Lachie Neale punched Windhager in the head if he keeps hanging onto him and whacking him off the ball like that.
