    Tim Callan - leaving?

    Heard that Tim Callan is moving on via Jen whitham on Twitter. She is at the best and fairest.

    I understand he has retired.

      Thanks TCD. Apparently Eade thanked him during his speech.

        If that's the case, he went out in style with a great final game.

        All the best Timmy!

          Tim had a couple of great finals games and certainly a player who gave it his best shot.

            If only a few others had the same intensity & courage as Timmy.

                Am a little surprised at his decision (assuming it was), would have thought with Harbrow going a small back spot had opened up?

                  It was his decision.

                  He has a university degree (Business??) to fall back on and has been knocking back job offers for a few years now, but feels it's the right time to make the move.

                    Good luck to Timmy, in his future business decisions.

                    Have always appreciated his efforts for the club, a guy who always gave 100%.

                      Yeah, good on you Tim. A guy I loved to watch because he tried his guts out every single time. And he seems like a good fella too.

                        What was the AFLPA award he won this year?

                            Still he will never get the chance to play footy at an elite level again.
                            It would only be a year or two before he could devote himself to business.
                            It must be a brilliant offer for him to make such a desision.
                            Good luck to him.

                              Anyone know if he's planning on continuing with Williamstown?
