Yep great player. But probably has been 'finished' for awhile now. I think Simpson is a solid coach.....and probably already knows the Eagles need to start re-building ...and have a few difficult years ahead of them.

A damn good player. Finishing up at the right time. Congrats on a decade long career of being one of the games best defenders.

I would struggle to pick another captain out of there group... maybe pridds I guess. Most the other ones I see out n about here and just haven't grown up or could do the roll. Glass is a big loss for them imo grats to good career

yeah a few too many 'stars in their own lunch time' in that team. They remind me a touch of Carlton's list...lots of high end talent that promises the world and only deliver in one out of every five games.

I think S.Selwood should be captain.

Wellingham in a sense personify(s) the club as a whole....now and again has a good game...but spends most of the time on the verge of being dropped back to the WAFL.

We can't all be perfect. But not all of them?

You must be 'shattered' by his decision then?

All the best to Glass was a great player. A lot of respect for him, West Coast will miss him. I guess Sharrod will be reinvented as a full back like Jack Anthony.
