The 359-game veteran said his love for the game and pursuit of a premiership were the motivating factors behind his decision.

At 36, Harvey is the AFL’s oldest player. He is confident his body can stand up to the rigours of the modern game.

Despite being hampered by hamstring problems this year, Harvey, played 19 games and is expected to poll well in the Saints’ best and fairest award.


WILL HIS BODY HOLD UP

It's official. Robert Harvey is a freak. Champion.

regards,

REB

Unbelievable


What a player, Champion

Legend and definitely my favourite player. Not the quickest but great skills over 30-40 metres and massive work rate. Hopefully his body holds up he is an out and out champion!

Great to see him going around again.

Good on him!

after the season he had this year I couldn't see any reason why he couldn't play on next year.

good luck to him

Great stuff! Legend.

A player who was in his 6th AFL season when Buckley, Ricciuto, Archer and McKernan were in their first!!!!!!!!

what a champion,
good luck to him!

Great news.
One of few St Kilda players who commands and deserves respect!
Like Hird and Bucks, he's still at the top of his game after so many seasons. Outstanding.

Good luck to Harvey

Great news! Well done Robert.

Hopefully his body holds up for the season. Im not sure it will but good luck to him. Hes a champ.

Well done to Harvs, great player, one would think that St Kilda will manage him well next year and playing him on and off the bench as an impact player, if they do that they should get a full season out of him. As for staying there for one more year for a chance of a premiership I think he is dreaming

He's already done that.

Absolute champion. Hope he has a good year and hasn't made a mistake playing on. Unlikely that Robert Harvey would make a mistake like that though.

Excellent news!

Lets win him a flag
