David Astbury, Thank You

[TrialByVideo]

Was just listening to Emma Murray.. didn't realise Dave was now working for her.
Makes sense having heard him speak when he was with us.
Calm, considered and caring has always been my impression of Dave.

Intercept the problem and then kick it back down the line.

Where is Emma these days? Is she still at the club or did she end up at Geelol?

Bakes: bit embarrassed really, none of the other boys have to wear two jock straps to play in and to be honest having to use my nanas bras as jock straps for fit reasons just makes it worse.
DTLD: Hmmmm. I'll get Emma on the line, this ones going to her.

Still at Richmond I believe. .. Pretty sure I saw her in he background a few weeks ago.

I seen her at both Edwards and Lamberts retirement speeches. Hopefully still at the club

How reliable was Dave, he was very rarely beaten. Would've been good if he could've gone around again for a couple more years, has only just turned 32.

Had a lot of injuries early that definitely shortened his career.

He was beginning to look like the end was nigh , was a ripper tho , underrated by many

 

[Wildcat]

Very confident David can fill a peg in the clubs future as a key back.
Has the tools for that position.

The recruiting staff deserve credit for plucking him where they did last year.

Nailed it.

Dave retiring left a big hole in our defence but it is always good to retire when you are still on top of your game as Dave did.

 

[Leysy Days]

Nailed it.

That was a while ago. Cheers Wild Cat ha!

Happy birthday Dave, only 33yo.

Is greatly missed, it's a tragedy that injuries forced Dave into early retirement.

Nice bump tigerman.
A great team player, often overlooked and underrated. But very much respected by his teammates and peers.
We were a better team and club when Dave was with us.
Happy birthday Dave, we treasure the moments and memories.
