Dominic Fairchild went for 87 against the Cannoneers AND THEY LET HIM LEAVE. He is 31 now, which was most of the argument at the time. The fixture comes round again next year.
Across nine seasons: 10,688 yards from scrimmage, 143 touchdowns, 137 games. He got to 2,180 once. Not this time. For two clubs.
He is from Auckland, New Zealand. Ask anybody: he would rather be almost anywhere else on a Tuesday. Nobody planned any of it. He was cut twice before his twenty-fourth birthday.
The club is 4-3. Tank Callender is new. There is one year left on the deal.
Fairchild collects vinyl and is insufferable about it.
