Happy to see Bash get another year if he wants it, just an honest hard working consistent player who gets maximum out of himself every time.

On 7 Game Day.... Showed Ben Simmons and fellow Boomers @ bombers match
Thought they played soccer...... not big on other sports. .. Classic

Yep. Great game last night. He was everywhere for the link-up. Besides the brain fades, a very important player for us and I'm sure he'll be a great mentor off-field for whoever takes his spot when he retires.
Got that impression myself. Always thought if we win the flag in 2019 he would retire anyway
Given some soft tissue injuries I reckon we may only get one more season out of Houli, but he is a definite retain if his body holds up. He is a very important part of our team and also adds off-field value too.

You'd think after 8 years and 170 odd games they'd give.it away for good
Bachar will retire at the end of 2019 .... with his second premiership medal swinging around his neck.
I got the same vibe. Also he was on one of the footy shows on Sunday morning and he was working the angle about putting more time into his off field foundation.
If true and he times his announcement right after round 24, it could be the team lifter we seek heading into the finals ala the Dusty re-signing in 2017.
Bachar Houli continued his fine form on Saturday night, finishing with 32 disposals, five rebound-50s, three inside-50s, seven marks, four tackles and 523 metres gained

Houli a golden oldie
Star Richmond rebounding defender Bachar Houli is enjoying the best season by a Tiger veteran since Matthew Richardson in 2008.

The "old man" just keeps getting the job done.

This distractor (much better than hater) will keep quite if he uses the ball as well as he did on the weekend. For the role of the distributor, I rate his game on the impact of his disposals, he impacted pretty well on the weekend.
I'm more than happy to talk of Bachar in glowing terms if its warranted.
Sorry, I should have made that clearer, I didn't rate his game as glowing.
I have him easily in the 22, but also easily replaced - that's all. When push comes to shove, I think the club sees it that same.
It is true, detractors will focus too heavily on the mistakes, equally the brightsiders will be inclined not to listen to alternate points of view.
I'm not referring to the disposal mistakes, the ball use I'm refering to is the willingness and ability to find targets. I feel that Houli is attempting and finding targets moreso in recent weeks. The kickout strategy is an example of this and there has been a clear change to find closer targets and retain the ball. I call this improved ball use.
