Darcy Done
The Bulldogs' Luke Darcy has announced that he will retire at the end of the season. That could be only five rounds away unless the Bulldogs start winning again. They have slipped out of the top 8 and need to win against the Saints to get back on track.
From the Bulldogs site: Darcy calls it a day
From The Age: Darcy to walk away on his terms
AFL Fantasy Impact:
For fantasy teams, it seems like Darcy has been retired for the past three weeks. His stats have been very bad in recent games. Maybe he does turn it around but he wouldn't be a player to invest in right now. After a disastrous game against West Coast, the Bulldogs probably recall one of their taller ruckmen and with Grant also a chance to play it could mean Darcy has a reduced role this week.

Would be much appreciated

In the coming days something will be posted about that. With a lot of new coaches taking over teams there should be more player movement than there was last year.
With other clubs able to offer a lot more, the Bulldogs have done extremely well to keep players like Grant, West, Johnson and Darcy for their entire careers.
