all true, but then young idiots who over-rate their own importance think they too should be able to get away with things.You know the thing with guys like Shaw and Swan were they didn’t keep causing issues (that we know of). Also, when players from other clubs are recruited and asked what surprised them the most at Collingwood, the answer was always the same. It was how hard Swan trained particularly during the pre-season. Sure guys play up. But if they can separate it and maintain their professionalism then they are given chances. And also the learn quickly what’s acceptable.
the hardest trainer in the group also applied to Cousins, making me wonder if there was something in the stuff he took or it was pure coincidence?
