Victory isn't defined by ultimate success.
Simpson is a victor through his career efforts.
He was a skinny kid who couldn't get a kick, and yet somehow played over 300 games in navy, and managed to play a consecutive number of matches for many straight seasons. He provided us some great highlights, played at a very bleak period and is highly respected by the footy industry and fans alike.
I remember sitting in front of some saints supporters who commented as much a few years back stating that he was the sort of player that you always respected and never begrudged a win for.
At the end of the day, if we define a player as successful as only being a flag winner, then they'd mostly be failures and blokes like Bob skilton are losers, right?
