    Hill for 5/6 is a good deal. If you think he is worth more you are kidding yourself. I reckon we should forget Kelly. Get Jackson, best avalable mid and Henry.

    Coach Justin Longmuir

    There may well be a few of these stories coming out now. As I said in a another post. Carefully cultivated relationships with high-profile players that would serve him well PR wise but showed scant regard for anyone else otherwise. Narcissists are toxic.

    McCarthy could flourish under a new coach. I just don't think Ross was right coach for him. Him, Lobb and Taberner could provide a very potent attack. I am skeptical of Hogan getting back to full fitness. Cox, I think, is a bit lazy.

    List Mgmt. Ross Lyon - Sacked

    I wonder how many posts this thread will get to before the mods put it out of it's misery. Lyon is gone. Lets all move on.

    Preview Round 23 - Port Adelaide Power vs Fremantle Dockers - Sunday 25th August 2019 @ Adelaide Oval

    Hale has said in todays presser that the focus is on players getting out there and enjoying themselves. This pleases me greatly.

    Coach Poll Next Senior Coach

    Jlo for me. Has a good CV and is highly regarded. Has worked as a defensive coach and forwards coach. Only heard good things about him. Plus is a Freo boy and that does mean something.

    List Mgmt. Ross Lyon - Sacked

    Lyon was sacked simply because he was not good enough anymore. His coaching philosophies are out of date. He is a dinosaur. Add to that his abrasive and arrogant attitude that put many in the media, and even Freo fans, offside and he just had to go. Ross has one redeeming feature. He is a...

    IMO the greatest thing that could happen would be for Sumich to takeover the list that Ross built and win a flag. It would be a delicious irony.

    Team changes vs Port

    Hale has only got one game in charge and he does,nt want it to be a flogging. Would not look good on his CV. Steady as she goes it will be with perhaps a minor tweak. Cannot revamp the game plan on the last game of the season

    Coach Justin Longmuir

    For the first time in a few years I am genuinally excited about next season. Not that I think we'll win the flag or anything, but that there is a chance for real change. I am going to back the club in whoever they pick , bet it Suma or JLo or someone else. ⁰l Except Worsfold, Scott and Voss. Do...

    Sumich would not bother me. He certainly has credentials re devoping young talent. He is highly regarded by those in the know. With all due respect us here on Bigfooty, for the most part, know diddly.

    JLo for me. All the successful coaches have catchy nicknames - Clarko, Simmo, Bevo, Worsfoldo or Ratteno just doesn't float my boat.
