We got Duursma for the McKay compensation and Comben looks like he will fill the role more than adequately, definitely been a win so far, and we need to take all of the small wins.


How many of his 10 games have been in defence?

Yep staying on the park is his first challenge, but if he can do that Im more than confident in the talent he possesses.

As I said small wins.

Surely you'll cut ties with him now?


If they sack him now he will end up at a club with a "strong culture (cough Geelong)" for free
