    Great careers

    Gilbee in particular from 2005-2009 was a star. His ability to defend against taller opponents and use the ball by foot to the team's advantage was elite. His decision making ability was a standout.

      Well done on two great careers. Hargrave played out of his weight division on occassions, and Gilbee's kicking just sublime in that 05 to 09 period

        Well done on great careers Shaggy and Gilbs.
        Nice one. My sentiments also.

        Gee that 99 draft was bloody good to us.

          Gilbee - an elite kick

          Hargrave - an elite left hook

          Both enjoyed terrific careers

                  Love the kiss by Eagleton at the end.

                  Great players who deserve all the accolades. Thanks for the memories and hope the next stage of life treats you just as well.

                        Sad but inevitable. Thanks for the memories Gilbs and Shaggy. Two great clubmen, Bulldogs through and through, all the very best to both fellas.

                          Linsday Gilbee and Ryan Hargrave have been great players for our club for many years. Well done to both of them on getting to over 200 games which is a great achievement.

                            Congratulations to both Ryan and Lindsay for their terrific careers, one club players who were key to our successes during the 2006-2010 period. Wish them all the best for the future.

                              Always had a soft spot for Hargrave who overcame adversity to carve out a really good career. Underrated somewhat by those outside the club. His 2009 year was superb.
                              On every conceivable statistical measurement, Shaggy's 2009 season was vastly superior to Nick Maxwell. Alas the Collingwood media cheer squad made sure Maxwell got his AA.

                              Well done Gilbs and Shaggy on superb careers. They were both going nowhere until Rocket's arrival, and he certainly got maximum performance out of both.

                                Thanks for posting those Gilbee videos BAD. Brian Taylor would always bang on that he taught Gilbee how to kick - and it seems that it's true!
