“While it’s hard to name everyone individually, I’d also like to thank the admin staff, the property staff and particularly the medical staff, for patching me up for the last 14 years.”
“The most important people at the club to me is my teammates. You come into the club every day and when you’re younger, you don’t fully understand how lucky you are in this job. All you guys in the room hold a place in my heart and my past teammates too.” Michael Hurley.
Michael Hurley has told teammates he will be retiring at the end of this season. A Bombers favourite to the end. More on @AFLcomau.
