Retirements and delistings 2013
« on: June 06, 2013, 08:08:56 PM »
DEFENDER Marty Mattner, one of the Sydney Swans' most durable players, has been forced to retire immediately due to ongoing issues with his hips.
 
The 30-year-old, who joined the Swans from Adelaide ahead of the 2008 campaign, played 117 of a possible 119 games over five seasons with the club, including last year's premiership.

Crows Graham Johncock has also retired this week.

Quote
RETIRING Adelaide veteran Graham Johncock wasn’t able to continue playing or training at the highest level because his body was letting him down.

The defender-turned-forward said persistent back, ankle and knee injuries drained his confidence to such an extent that even if he had been offered a farewell game he wouldn't have been able to get through it.
