Very unexpected appointment, would have thought that Sanderson or Hinkley were the two top contenders
Not sure why they'd appoint a rookie coach with no exposure to the Cats when they still think they're a chance for a flag next year. May be worth putting money on them missing the 8 next year.
Resigning Milburn and trading Laidler makes even less sense now
bit of an over reaction, plenty of gun players left to stay in the 8, might be a challenge to stay in the top 4.
Although there are not many sides who appear capable of challenging the current top 4, outside of collingwood all appear to have peaked.
Not saying it will happen, just that you'd get some pretty good odds and it's certainly a decent chance.
Senior players peeed off that Sanderson didn't get the job, learning a new gameplan, best player has left, resigned all their aging players, on the decline
It would be worth a small wager
