Welcome to the Kennel - Nick Coffield

[Mofra]

I was strong on this trade and have been really buoyed by the early training reports.

I think he's clearly a best 22 player. His body seems to be working for him atm, so fingers crossed that continues!

It's the exact type of buy low, potentially for a high level player, we should be looking at every year.
The fact he plays in a position of desperate need for us is a massive bonus too

If I'm putting some of the pieces together correctly we had identified him as a potential target during the season and I would guess that has something to do with the discussions Power and his team had with Ramanauskas this year.
With a list management decision made to not re-sign Tim O'Brien our focus moved even stronger towards bringing Coffield in.
.

It also seems that when Power was spotted at a Collingwood game watching ?Ginivan? Power was actually watching Coffield!

Reading that Khamis is playing back also probably spelt the end of O?Brien (along with Coffield recruitment).

It's a bit vanilla I guess but I appreciate that he didn't give his former club a whack over anything. I'd imagine a lot of players once they leave suddenly decide they didn't appreciate certain things about their former club (like many of us would with our workplaces) but unlike Dunkley last year and Hamling this year (with Freo not us) he's kept things nice and simple. 'I just felt like I needed a new start' is pretty much the perfect line for him given his injuries.

I love how happy he looks in his Bulldogs jumper. Ive got a good feeling about this trade
