it will be nice to have Bob in Perth. I think he will fit right in hanging around the South Fremantle strip alongside Tim Winton and the other great thinkers down there sitting and pondering about life.

Fyfe, Colyer and Murphy will all enjoy each others’ company as deep thinkers. It’s a good get for the club.

I'm not sure what the Head of Football Operations and Performance does, but you don't hear many bad things about Bob Murphy. I worry that he's a bit inexperienced but he doesn't seem like someone with a big ego who'll go it alone. He seems like someone who would be great as part of a football operations team. He even said he missed the "us" vs "them" part of football. Well, hell, if you want an environment that's us vs them, you've come to the right club, mate. The bulldogs are a small fish amongst the bigger Vic teams, which I would imagine would give him a good perspective on how a smaller club can be successful.

I also love that he's hungry and ready to go. He'll want to knock this out of the park as his first gig outside post-football, non-media. I'll be interested to hear WHY he chose to come to Freo specifically.

I really like this hire.

Yeh, you can’t underestimate club captains as well, in particular those who are in role a long time. They are highly educated by the clubs in everything to do with leadership & make fantastic mentors, so he will be great for Fyfe & our younger leaders coming through.

Ive had a few discussions with Ben Stratton recently & the extra time the leaders put into the club compared to the standard player is huge & the education they receive is second to none. It sets them up for careers out of footy or in this case with Murphy, perfect for a football environment.

It wasn't in media, it was discussion within the industry

I don't have any inside information but I remember a fair amount of pies supporters laughing about the "worst kept secret" once it was announced.

Great article.

It's a shame that idiot Mark Readings has joined their podcast. It used to be quite good.

Am I one of the few that enjoys the change? I think Readings contributes well to their discussions.

You are a Grade A Douchebag.

But I respectfully disagree with your opinion.

yes I agree. My favourite part is how he panders to West Coast and uses every opportunity possible to leave a drive by on Freo

Impressed with his use of the word ‘bollocks’.

Hey Dale147 - have you got the article about Mundy saying we can cover losing Cerra internally?

Cerra replacement to come from within at Dockers

Fremantle veteran David Mundy believes outgoing Dockers midfielder Adam Cerra is “not easily replaced” but the club is well placed to fill the void internally.

edit - scratch that, found it on the Cerra thread - thanks.

Basically says eat 4&20 pies and Tucker can replace Cerra.

You are oversimplifying his message - he said Tucker and Blakely.

 

[Deveraux]

I think the main thing is pies

Blakely and Tucker are heading to the pies?

 

[theGav56]

Pies are good Tucker.

Over and out.
