He has contributed a enormous amount to the Hawks, and it's a fine line to tread between retiring too soon and playing on too long.
But in the wake of another loss, Hawthorn's list management and coach are under fire.
In the latest episode of The Age Real Footy Podcast, panellists Michael Gleeson, Caroline Wilson and Greg Baum discuss the Hawks and Tom Mitchell's 50-touch game, the match review panel's "cry for help", whether Tasmania should get its own AFL team and the Eagles - who become "pathetic" the instant they step off the plane at Tullamarine.
