Goes completely against what Damo Barrett said earlier in the week.
Going for broke!

Byrne for Armfield was a no-brainer, Smedts is probably a bit lucky and will need a couple of good games.
Thanks for the memories Denis, you gave it your best shot mate.

I'd have dropped Smedts and left Denis in for the last two rounds.

I gave him an out.

We're not making finals, the game is of little importance to the Club.......why drop Armfield & deny him a final home game in Melbourne?
Pretty ordinary call by the MC imo.......

Fair question Brettie. Not dissimilar to the Fisher and Houlihan scenarios.

Have we ever had an official farewell game for a player?

Oh contraire ze Brettie. The game is enormously important, in many respects... maybe not re finals, but certainly in every other way. We're building a culture which certainly seems to put team first. I do take your point but think that perhaps last week, in front of his home/family, was a really fitting way for Den Den to bow out.
