He's definitely been teaching Bytel. Their bond is deep and close (as evidenced by Hanners announcement of Bytel's debut). Much like Worpel and MItchell - The Saints ppl I know in and around the club talk about Bytel hanging off every word and on-training ground action of Hanners.

There'll always be debate as to whether we got playing value from Hanners but, I don't think there's much doubt that he's doing an excellent job in bringing the group along to a more professional/level of excellence way of doing things.
Well that really is quite encouraging.

Would be great to Hannebery back for finals. If he can get back to even close to his best, he would elevate us to a top 4 team
Hanners makes us a better team instantly with his excellent decision-making and skill execution.

As for the cost, I expect his contract will provide for the eventuality of long term injury and early retirement, if that should eventuate.
Why would he retire when he can limp through 5 games a year for his $500k plus.
Sort of like the blokes who hurt themselves water skiing on Sunday dose themselves on pain killers on Monday enter the workplace, clock on and go "s*** I've done me back". Compo, rehab, rinse and repeat!
I'll bet you've got a ski boat?

Well, yes and no. He's not there at the moment, is he.

But will be shortly. I believe.

You don't have to be there to coach do you? That would intimate that Roughhead has been ineffectual during the week and pre-game in his coaching and mentorship too as he's not back there yet either.
