Riddell retires

effective immediately, according to ABC grandstand. Unsure if he's injured or if he quite possibly got tapped on the shoulder, with the recent siging of that Parramatta player by the chooks.

Good honest player. Will remember a couple of his try celebrations.

I'll always remember him for the time he single-handedly knocked Brisbane out of the finals.

Pretty random though, he hasn't been that bad this year.

Had the talent to be a rep player, maybe not the discipline. A great character player though - sadly we miss them so much.

I'll always remember him as a fat over rated Mongoloid looking f**k.

Steady on mate. Give the bloke a bit of respect.

Loved the way he kicked goals with his one-arm salute. Very handy player for the Dragons & the Eels. Unlucky not to play Origin earlier in his career.

Good luck Piggy

What is it with the stains and Mongoloids?

He's been pretty ordinary.

Also the Broncos still played another game the next week.

i think its the form of the roosters and the fact that he was on a one year deal that probaly swayed him to give up, seems a cop out though

He's been terrible.

A major factor in the slide of the chooks this season. How he got re-signed is a complete mystery to me. Perhaps his last final practical joke in the NRL.

I'm sorry to see him go. I liked him and the game always needs characters. Souths would have been better getting him with all there injuries, he could have made an impact in that team.

a memorable character of RL
i recon in 20 years time people will remember piggy riddell, maybe not for his play but a genuine character.

Good luck piggy, thanks for the memories.
