Golden oldies: How your side's 30-plus players are travelling?

RICHMOND

Chris Newman (33) - The oldest player on the Tigers' list, Newman is yet to decide if he will play on, saying he will leave that decision until the end of the season. After a two-week spell in the VFL mid-season, he has held his spot for seven weeks and played a role across half-forward. He said last month he'd "have to be playing some pretty good footy to play on", and the Tigers' emerging youngsters could force him out of the 22.

Said it before and will say it again

this decision of whether he plays on 2016 is not and should not be Newman's to make

Must be taken out of his hands

As long as we continue to employ 33-34 year old hacks wih no leadership qualities, we will not be premiers.
The fact he believes he will make that spdecision shows how much of a moron he is.

Got a question,

Why does anyone ever use anyone in the media to back up any opinion they may have on any matter?
As I have not seen one person in the media ever call it like it is when it comes to blokes like Newman, ever. Whenever I listen to his name on TV it's all "the veteran, he plays a great role for the Tigers". "Newman will go on next year won't he  Richo? He's playing some good footy". Come on. He is woeful and it stands out. Maybe Mark McClure would smash him but he is an idiot so no one would take note

Some moronic commentators still call him the captain.
Anyone heard this?
