Nobody came with him. Goodwin joined Melbourne - Melksham / Hibberd came across after him. No assistant coach or player joined him (as far as I remember). David Teague has a better track record of pulling blokes across with him.

Also - how much gravitas / pull does he have with attracting experienced players to the club? I'm thinking not much.

Fair points...I was always surprised we never had any Hawthorn fringe players cross to us, its like he had an agreement with Clarkson that when
he was allowed to leave it was on the basis he couldnt poach any players.

we've got John o'Rourke and the terrier with us in varying capacities.

Does that count for anything??

ORourke is a spud and JR probably needs another pre-season with the players to judge his work.
