QuoteAdelaide veteran Graham Johncock has cited fatigue as his reason for quitting the AFL.

Didn't really see it coming but the writing was on the wall, got to feel for the lad, looks like he was pushed out!

So, Stiffy couldn't get up any more.

(Too fatigued)

In all seriousness though, sad to see him go, was one of the first opposition players I ever liked.

Disappointed that Stiffe pulled out.

Does seem like that.

Wonder if he asked for a farewell game? Would have been good to see him one last time.

Just saw part of the interview, said he was offered a farewell game but said mo. He didn't want to be gifted one and said he believes you should have to earn your games.

Champ.

He was a good player, disappointing to see him go. It was always coming with him being on the outer at the Crows this year. I'd like to see players like him, who were genuine contributors and fighters, get a farewell game, but I guess it says more about his character that he declined it. Congrats on a good time in the AFL Stiffy.
