I mean Stephen Magor,Shane Curnow Gavin Leske and Burford are much better players than he will ever be. He maybe retiring cos Burford is back as he always gets a hiding when he plays against him.Now i have been involved with many sports for a long time and i tell you back in the day with the Hayes Bros,Glen Johns, Adrian Davies Monkey Hellmans Larry and Jeff Rawlins and the ilk there would be no way in the world them REAL footballers would put up with this lad demanding every thing and giving nothing back to the club or his mates.The players mentioned earlier played for the jumper and there mates along side of them not for the money thats why they were so respected!!!! And they actually TRAINED!!!!

Since when did Burford play for $0?
Burford has dominated in the ruck the last few years, but Tee has been the more dominant player when we have played against them.
If you're going to include players like Curnow, Leske etc (Great champions of the SGL) Fuller has matched it with both Tee & Burford since coming back. Best ruckman I've played with didn't train either, but Peter Jackson still dominated. Matthew Anderson from Ports in 02,03? was also a great ruckman.
I am pretty sure that if Tee was running around with guys like those great Solly players of the late 80's, he wouldn't leave. Or if he had a gun midfielder like he did in 02 with Jason Robertson.
If he did, Monkey would maul him like he did to opponents most weeks. Top bloke though.
Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.
