Was thinking that. Their culture in backing each other nearly got him there. Melbourne really get behind each other. Think that’s been the biggest change. Their culture was a shambles not even a few years agoSo Ed Langdon joins an exclusive club of 5 players who win a premiership after leaving Fremantle.
1996 & 1999 - Peter Bell - North Melbourne
1999 - Winston Abraham - North Melbourne
2008 - Trent Croad - Hawthorn
2010 - Leigh Brown - Collingwood
2021 - Ed Langdon - Melbourne
This doesn't include players who won a premiership before joining Fremantle. Peter Bell played in 1995 for Freo so i have included him.
Btw i forgot Harley Bennell was at Melbourne last year. Imagine if Melbourne got him right and he played last night this forum would have exploded
