In some ways I hope Murph and Gia finish together, as they started. Not that I would wish an early end but just to see them off together, as they started.

What role with the club can they create to keep him at the club long term? He offers so much in So many ways.

Great bloke and great ambassador for our great club.
Agree with all these posts, Murph has been a fave of mine since that first game at Princes Park - a skinny kid who could run, evade and kick goals.
A great player, well liked, but dropped away a bit in 2012 by his usual standards.
I thought at times he tried to do a little too much, and be a bit cute with the ball.
Needs to be moved forward without a doubt, as I think we have the running half back thing covered now. One of my all time favourite Bulldogs.

Referring to his kicking. It's usually pretty good but not above criticism in 2012.
Some of his kicks were pretty speculative. Trying to thread the needle when a straight pass would have sufficed. Resulted in really bad turnovers. It's something he can work on as he loses a bit of penetration.

Every time I get down about the Dogs — be it prelims, massive losses or other various disappointments — I would pop Year Of The Dogs in the DVD player and be renewed. Speaking to Robert Murphy or reading his column often serves the same purpose.
