    Newly retired maybe? Surely you're not thinking Rampe or Reid?

    It'll be nice IF Dew and Shaw come back to head the Academy. They are both good at developing young talent.

    Stoked Mark McVeigh is on board. I've been hoping this would happen for a while.

    Department changes now official on club's website. Only difference is Mark McVeigh is mentioned as Asstistant Coach rather than as Senior Assistant, as direct replacement for Don Pyke.

    Possible that Dean Cox could be promoted into that senior role instead?

    Heard whisper that Cox has rejected coaching overtures from WC, as he's seen as a candidate to succeed Longmire. Unsure of that validity.

    From an outsider's perspective, these seem like marvellous appointments. Perhaps it's only Geelong (who we've clearly modelled our administration on) who does succession any better than the Swans.

    Swans coaching staff met in Melb today and apparently Stuart Dew was present at the meeting….

    Don't think there's 'room' for Dew in the coaching box LOL

    He was highly regarded when last here so wouldn't surprise if he was invited to return, now of course with five tough years as a senior coach under his (very large) belt

    So you don't think monitoring skinfolds should be part of his remit?

    Colin O'Riordan takes over McVeigh's role as Male Coach at the Academy, after his stint with AFLW

    O'Riordan to guide QBE Swans Academy
    'Delicious' is a fun word to say
