It is sad news. The end of a wonderful career.

I always enjoyed watching him play, even when he was carving up my beloved Dragons a la last week. All the best Freddy.

na i think they will be chasing tuquiri. Wingy at 5/8 and slot webb at hooker isnt a bad move. Cross is likely 2 move to union so tuquiri will be good.

I guess the time had to come sooner or later. I thought he had another season left in him. Sad to see him go. Hopefully his last season is a good one. Not too good though.

Can we please stay on the subject. This thread is about the retirement of one of the Greatest players in history, someone who has been at the top of the Rugby League world for 16 years! It's not about rumoured signings.

This is such sad day. Come round 1 next year, it sure will feel strange.

Mate I look at your team's roster, then I have a look at my team's roster. Then I think about the reported 400 000 extra you will supposedly have to spend. It's extremely hard not to be cynical.

Good luck for the future Freddy, congratulations on a magnificent career :clap:

And as for the poeple that are using this thread for speculating who might be moving to the roosters next season, this is not the time or the place, wake up to yourselves :roll:

True enough. Meant it more as an off hand comment.


It's sad to see freddy retire, he's easily good enough to go around again, and still one of the premier 5/8's in the game. Roosters will miss him, as any side would. Best of luck to him for this season.

Great Carreer, Freddy. Highlights that Step, and your Games Vs the Dragons have always been a highlight to me, and many dragons supporters.

Watching Fitler and Mundine play against each other was always a highlight.

Well Done Freddy.

Words cannot describe the impact Brad Fittler has had on the Roosters since he arrived at Bondi.........................both on & off the field.

He is one of the all time great players. A legend. A true Hall of Famer.

Brad Fittler truly one of the all time greats of the game. On the field = great, off the field great. No matter who you support you have to acknowledge that Freddy has been an absolute legend. Good on ya Freddy. Good luck for the rest of the year and all the best after that.

And where has the extra $400k been reported? Care to give us a url? Point us to the publication?

Will you providing evidence or will you be retracting your allegations?

You gutless cowards have got nothing but sour grapes.

PUT UP OR SHUT UP GOOSE.

An absolute champion on and off the field, easily one of the best players in the history of league. Very sad news, but I don't think Freddy could have asked for a better career than what he's had.
