The Geelong football factory continues to churn out quality success stories..For me the biggest tick for Pt Adel was the appointment of David Koch, finally a presence in the media and Eastern states with also a sound finanical and business understanding, and is already having an impact.
I spoke to REB about this a few weeks ago. Geelong have churned out some senior coaches from the Bomber Thompson era. Sanderson, Hinkley and McCartney all with senior gigs.
Similar to the Mark Williams stable of previous years that included Bailey, Hardwick, Clarkson and Primus.
They all have one under lying factor. Kevin Sheedy. Mark Williams and Mark Thompson were both heavily influenced by Sheeds and so it seems have their assistants in turn.
Sheedy, still having an impact upon the whole competition.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.
