Highmore, Byrnes etc… perform well?

And the continued development of Wilkie etc…
Wilkie and Highmore have played well as soon as they got to the club. Limited exposure to Development coaches.

Byrne still a work in progress and too early to say whether the Development coaches will help him become a 100 + game player.

Because first it was Richo holding us back

Now it’s those darn assistant coaches

Next it’ll be the bloody Dietitian or the Fitness guys

Here’s a thought
Maybe, just maybe - it’s the list??

The state of the list, the composition of the list, the demographics of the list and importantly the health of the list!!!

Players make coaches look good
Not the other way around

I’ve seen average coaches win premierships but yet to see a poor team win one!
The very slow development of Coffield and Clark and Clavarino and the stagnation of Billings and Lonie and Long and Joyce suggests that the development staff do need to be held accountable. Players developed elsewhere such as Wilkie and Highmore and Higgins are stepping in and taking their spots.
Maybe these guys just were never that good.

Coffield and Clark still have tons of time to become really good players.
Yep, that is the million dollar question. Blame the recruiters or development coaches.
