Very true.
The club should put some effort into recruiting a couple of experienced on field leaders to help with the development of the youngsters and settle things down when necessary. I suppose we tried that with Kieran McGuinness but his unfortunate neck injury ended that part of his involvement.
It could be a good opportunity for recently retired AFL players who want a pathway to coaching and still have the ability and desire to play VFL.
