Hall of fame - Goodes

[Thryleon]

As Eddie Betts said tonight:
Respect the decision, unless you been racially abused you dont understand how deep it cuts (and continues to cut for the rest of your life).

Agree with that.

Although, some of the rhetoric around him being booed out of the game is drawing a very long bow.

I remember Goodes last game against North Melbourne.  It was a semi final, and he looked a long way off the pace, and I thought he was very much done with footy.

The only thing I cannot quantify about him was how much the booing effected his want to be there, but even so, he didnt look like he could continue at the level anyway.  He was almost 36 when he retired.

There aren't too many that go on for that long and remain at a high level.
