David Mundy's incredible AFL career has come to an end after Fremantle's loss to Collingwood, but he maintained his high standards throughout and finished ...
“We were probably overawed by the occasion to be honest, quite a few of us. His goal on the run with about 10 minutes remaining was a fitting way to finish. Crazily, Andrew Brayshaw is the most likely challenger and he only played his 100th game against the Magpies. Mundy even signed a footy after last week’s win over the Western Bulldogs and wrote “three more wins” but the dream of finishing with a flag has eluded most players throughout AFL history. It’s come to an end but the Fremantle group is really well placed to take this club forward.” That’s not going to happen.
It's not the way it should have ended, but David Mundy has waved goodbye to the AFL on Saturday night.

Tears, cheers and plenty of respect: Star Docker bows out with epic AFL record.
“He gave the club so much … “It’s been an incredible ride and it’s come to an end.” “A long time he’s been there, he’s been a constant – the man they turn to.” “Only Craig Bradley, Dustin Fletcher and Michael Tuck have been best and fairest on the podium at their club at an older age,” McLachlan revealed. “He’s been a great loyal servant to the Fremantle Football Club,” commentator Hamish McLachlan said. Mundy’s hopes of a fairytale finish were dashed when Fremantle crashed out of the finals race with a 20-point loss to Collingwood in the semi final.

Fly me to the Moon Let me play among the stars Let me see what spring is like On Jupiter and Mars - Frank Sinatra.
And while this void would rankle many, sending them tossing and turning for many winters to come, the grinning competitor saw fit to let those that followed enjoy the spoils of his toil.

Still happy to direct traffic right up until the point he departed under the watch of a poetically full moon, those made of more genial stuff would have packed it in earlier. Throughout his draft year nearly two decades ago, the then fresh-faced Murray Bushranger held a desire to earn midfield minutes alongside fellow draftees Kane Tenace and Ryley Dunn. On a night that would ultimately be his last, the 37-year-old corralled, conducted and, once again, acted as the cooling conduit through the centre. Sinatra’s consistency with style and sound saw him win fanatics of all sensibilities, many of whom still spin his wax way after his final note was pressed.
