New year, new thread.

Decent that Freo waited until the end of our season.

Fremantle has signed Justin Longmuir as senior coach on a three-year deal, replacing Ross Lyon.

Fremantle has appointed Collingwood assistant coach and former Docker Justin Longmuir as senior coach.
Longmuir, who has been defensive coach under Nathan Buckley for the past two seasons, has been appointed for the next three seasons.

The Dockers were unable to finalise the process of finding a replacement for Ross Lyon until after Collingwood's season ended. Longmuir did not pursue the vacant Adelaide Crows coaching position.
Fremantle is set to announce Longmuir's appointment later today, when there will be a media conference.

Knew it was coming, but still annoying. Our defence was superb in the two years Longmuir was in charge.

Damn, was hoping we could hold on for him a bit longer. Fair chance we've had notice on this and hopefully we have a decent replacement in the works.

Heard Brad Scott had coffee with the club a coupla months ago. Is Ross Lyon likely to get a spot somewhere else? Could we just do a straight swap?

Would give the cameras something else to focus on in the coaches box....

Good luck to him. He's served the club well over the last couple of seasons and seems to have played a significant role in the shifting of the club's culture.

Great work by Justin.

Surely this surprised no-one?

This is a big loss.
Our defence has been A grade..

In the absence of an inside insight on field results is the only thing most fans can use to judge our assistant coaches. Undoubtedly our backline has been the best performed across the 3 lines (back, mid, forward) and players have shown some really good development.
 
Well done Justin, hope he does a good job, just not against us.
Was always in my opinion going to get the top job for a team, bit surprised it took this long.
Freo got a good one, if they don’t play funny beggars on him
