I'd say all players at Plowman's level have a decent career and then get relegated to the 2's, delisted, retire etc. And there's no shame in that. There were plenty of players that got moved on before he did. Only players at the Cripps, Dangerfield, Pendlebury etc. level get to bow out on their own terms. Nobody ever suggested he was a gun A grader. But he definitely played good footy for us and deserves to be remembered and discussed fondly. He placed top 10 in the B+F on four occasions, playing alongside Docherty, Liam Jones, Kade Simpson, Weitering, Adam Saad. He wasn't surrounded by mugs, and more than held his own.
