His 1996 Swans team had Tony Lockett. His good Bulldogs team had Barry Hall. He may not have developed these guys, but he had them in the side. He obviously sees value in them.
Rocket Eade is the man. I honestly can't see any good reason why he would not be coaching us next year. He wants to win a flag after going close several times at 2 clubs who hadn't won flags for generations as well as taking on the position when both clubs were on their knees. Port is a club that knows how to win flags. Sure it's in the shit now, but with all the changes going on and the Adelaide Oval a year away, I seriously think it will be an exciting place to be. A few good additions to our list, fitness, some luck with injuries and some decent coaching I can see Port going places.
