He-she Hagdorn the Premature has a shocking record so wont be surprised if it is announced this afternoon that Bailey has signed with the NSW Swifts.
Bailey was assistant at Port from 2002-2007:
2002 minor premiers
2003 minor premiers
2004 premiers
2005 6th
2006 12th
2007 runner up
2002-2004 they won more games than the great Brisbane side.
It's his own fault he got assed from the Dees, but would have been interesting to see what he could have achieved if he hadn't allowed his hands to get tied to the bedposts.
Skills as an assistant nothing to sneeze at though, even if I feel underwhelmed. Wouldn't be the worst appointment.
