5th in his first year then 12th, 9th and 12th in his next three, two years of finals then 10th in 2006.
The rest is history, it took him 8 years to win the flag but it was worth the wait, they won three.
Bomber finished 10th in 2006 with 10 wins and a draw. Took over a team which finished 12th and 11th (with 9 and 10 wins) , the two years before his appointment and took them to 5th the following year with 12 wins and a draw.
We'll be fighting out bottom 2, hardly the same. Infact, we'll all be patting Mick on the back and offering him 3 years if he manages anything like Bomber's 2006 season, not talking about sacking him.

God knows what Swan was doing so probably not.
