"There was a heavy emphasis on getting guys who not only could play good football but were of tremendous character," Peter Gordon said.

Buckley has been taking us down the same path for a while now. Good times ahead...

Cloke isn't and never was in that sense.

Tom Liberatore has potential though.

Buckley also said we are closest in style to Bulldogs.

Once he learns how to structure a side, implement a viable game plan over a season and forms better relationships with players, watch out!!!

That flog peter Gordon has always struck me as a first class dickhead anyway, an annoying little whingeing prune.

The dawks don't use this policy. They have the biggest one as their coach. Then there is Hodge, Lewis, Burgoyne, Mitchell, Duryea.........
