Re: Hawthorn, Fremantle and Sydney
Hawthorn tradionally struggle the year after they have won a flag and I can see them struggling again. Buddy's gone, their list is a year older, the coach's message has been heard more often.
If anyone other than Lyon was coaching Freo I'd say watch for some complacency but I can't see that being a problem.
Sydney have to have a bad year sooner or latter but with Buddy and Tippett running around or them it ain't going to be anytime soon.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
