Beau Ryan calls it a day

[JJ]

Not sure why people are bagging him - good reliable first grade winger, always put in etc...

Nobody ever said he was more than that, the fact that he's (arguably) funny doesn't change that - seems a good bloke, the twitter battle with Farah was hilarious

 

[Griffoshark66]

Bad news for the sharks only decent back they have

For once i agree with you Cena, you big tough wrestler you. Hang on no i don't. Go back to fiddling with things you shouldn't you piece of shit.

 

[Nice Beaver]

Meh
Useless f**k was useless.

Classy.

Your comments on here say much more about you than Beau Ryan

 

[Meth]

Much improved player over recent years.

Terrible TV personality though.

 

[typicalfan]

He might get his own tv show now. Or take over as host of the footy show.

 

[morley101]

At least he has made some money out of the game/tv and it gives another a kid a chance at a 1st grade career... Jacob Gagan

 

[betcats]

I hope they dont start bringing him in to their game coverage.

 

[Twatface Magee]

Next Footy Show segment...."Beau Knows Centrelink".

That said, good career and probably the right time to go, gives the Sharks the rest of the year to blood some youth

Sharks don't blood their own juniors. They just buy players.

 

[Tipster]

Pretty decent career. He will be fine obviously with more exposure on TV.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Beau was a plodder who always annoyingly talked up his plodder friend in Benji Plod

 

[neeknitsuj]

He's not a very eloquent speaker outside his prefilmed segments.

 

[Joely01]

Don't get the hate for him.

Not the flashy full of skill Back, but a very reliable winger, who i actually think give more of a chance would have been a good fullback.

In the end he chose what every single man would choose in his situation, his family over footy where he risked a much more serious injury.

 

[Joely01]

How is this 'sad' am i missing something?

It's obviously sad for Beau because he has had to be forced to retire because of a neck injury.
He has trained every day since he was a kid to get to where he is now, so of course its sad to be forced into retiring from something you have worked so hard to get to.

 

[tumbidragon]

Can Beau coach? He could join his mate Bunji at the Dragons continue making people laugh...

 

[juro]

Rothfield has described him as a 'glamour winger'. I assume this is referring to his looks more than his ability.

 

[Different kind of Rabbit]

Could have played on for a few more years but someone told him Ricky Stuart was keen to offer him a contract so he chose to retire instead.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Always sad to see a forced retirement. At least in his case he's got a well (I presume) paid career waiting for him.

 

[DMS]

in the case of this dick weed i will happily be-head the corpse, ram a leg of ham up its arse and let rabid dogs drag it around town.
Ead baron :d

haha

 

[DMS]

I hope they dont start bringing him in to their game coverage.

Could you imagine that from the Nine Network, Beau Ryan Joey Johns & Freddy Fitler oh my the 3 stooges reunited

 

[gronkathon]

Tim Gilbert, Darren Lockyer & Beau Ryan on the mics.

I threw up in my mouth thinking of that
