    That sent shivers through me.

                Sam Lloyd has been fantastic, but any idea to retire Dickson is unwarranted.

                2017/8 he struggled with injury, but he has got his body right and he is moving well. I know he missed a goal on Sunday, but he has kicked a couple of gems from 50 this past month. That distance was beyond him last year with his hamstring issues.

                He is moving very well and his form is currently very good.

                    Lloyd’s been excellent
                    Dickson’s got his body right
                    I still think he’s lost a bit of distance in his kicking
                    I think Durreya’s been decent as well

                        Sam had a contract for the year. As we’ve struggled with small forward, and heading into a Grand Final with only one genuine small forward. I wonder what he’s thinking about now. Must have been a hard decision to walk away. A bit harder now I suspect when his replacement Anthony Scott Played a quarter and kicked a goal.

                            Could Sam perform the role we needed this year? Between the cotributions of McNeil and Scott, reckon they've both added dimensions that Sam was not able to provide.

                                He must have really been struggling to walk away in the way he did.

                                I would like to think he's happy that his retirement gave Scott his chance. The parallels there make for a great football story.

                                    Who knows? Neither will he. It’s like selling you Apple & Amazon stock at $15 while everyone else still held it.

                                        Business opportunity from memory. I don’t know if he didn’t think he’d get games, or whether we weren’t a GF threat.

                                        As you say, Scott contributing and gosling in an historic PF is a great story.
