Good depth though. If Freo get injuries to 8 of their small forwards all at the same time he might get a game.

love how they promote internally. They don't need to have interviews with outsiders. Theyve been interviewing Cox this whole time...

Well this answers the question of what a coach transition plan would look like if done by someone competent rather than Eddie McGuire

After so long an outside voice wouldn't have hurt them IMO. Like Scott for us. Doubt transition to Cox even registers with the senior players whereas ours were cutting short holidays etc as Scott being appointed shook them up a bit.
Its an interesting one which I guess over the next 2 years we will get an answer to.
Swans list, access to academies and home ground means anything less than PFs the next 2 years is a failure, and you would think another GF in the next 2 years should be on the cards too.
Does Cox have enough to help them get over this GF hoodoo?
In previous years this is the job a Clarkson/Hardwick would go for. List is primed but they just couldn't get over the final hurdle.

I had Longmire pegged as going to WC after he met Pike in about rnd14.

Hmm maybe if Sydney make a GF they will actually turn up now
Seems like a very decent bloke - those 2 humiliating GF's in quick succession would have knocked the stuffings out of him.
Glad he's not lost to footy.......

Yep, I'm pretty sure this is how the draft & rookie draft are meant to work
**** the rookie list needs to be changed badly

That's the very definition of "taking the piss"
It's long been known that a Crouch wouldn't play next year, the fact that St Kilda have played the system as they have, I'd love the AFL to turn around and tell then nope to an open list spot - they can keep Crouch for the season or play with the list one short

It really needs to be changed to something like..
1 You can't be rookied if you have played more than say 20 AFL games
2 Once a rookie you must be promoted if you play more than say 20 games over 2 years
I do like the change to allowing rookies for 5 years for long term projects so i would keep that
Is he really to blame for those losses though?

Hmm maybe maybe not we will see if Sydney get back to the GF whilst still have the same playing group
