It'd be great if so many more did the same.
Why not do both?
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

It's now a thing. If you put in the beginning of the hashtag, it's picking up and recognising it now. Getting a lot of support for something less than an hour old.

If a few more hit this soon on Twitter, we could almost get it to trend. Is anyone a BF poster and get our comrades over there to help the cause.
I tweeted it and BigFootyBulldogs retweeted it and followed me. Is working.

Leaving a permanent reminder on Twitter about him and his conduct.

Just be sure to leave room for 5 more statues for the flags we are going to win over the next 10 years.

I don't think I've EVER heard Luke with that tone of voice in public before.
Openly choking back tears and needing a moment to compose himself, that was as raw as it gets in professional sport and, as others have said, was extremely hard to watch.

Re: Tom Boyd Retires
“That will never be forgiven by anyone at our football club. That’s a choice that a certain journalist made and it’s a window into that person’s soul and how black that soul is.”
It's death by a thousand cuts for Bevo from this bloke. The constant snide innuendo. Luke Hodge said it best of this person.
Hey that meme of the re-forged Ted Whitten statue made my afternoon. Well done to whoever did that. Classic!
