Dignity. Class. Respect. Brad Sewell.

Hawthorn's Sewell retires

Tommy, my stock market insight is as good as my footy tips: I only ever get 50% right.

I was lucky enough to be taught finance by Dick Brierley, as in the co-author of the Corporate Finance bible by Brierley & Myers. I can still remember him saying – to every students shock – that he never invested in the stock market. He called it a “random walk that no rational man could predict”.

And for the record, I have great respect for both Buddy and the Swans. Buddy grew up in the wheatbelt of WA not too far from me, so I consider him “one of ours”, much like I did Doug Green (East Fremantle and South Melbourne champion), when I was a boy.

I just told it as I saw it – a view held by many Hawthorn fans I talked to.

Buddy's insult will cost Swans the flag
