I remember talking to Michael Maguire when he was at Melbourne and talking about how when they would have their video sessions and they'd have the spine sessions, Billy Cooper, Cameron Smith, and Munster, if it was Munster at the time or whoever was playing 5'8".

I think it was back before then there was Blake Green and whatnot were playing.

And

Whidip was another.

Whidip, yeah, there was a few 5.8s over time.

Anyway, and he said Billy was always the one that would come up with something.

Why don't we try this?

Why don't we try that?

And he was the one that just – he said he just saw the game another way.

And there were times you'd be like, wow, okay.

Where did he come up with that idea from?

And that's how Billy sees the game.

And that's what he's brought into his coaching here.

I think that's why his decision-making is so precise because he knows exactly the good coaches.

The one thing every good coach can do is they can tell you what a player will do for them in the team.

And they can also say, I need a player to do this.

Sometimes it's a bloke like a Capewell.

It's just to go out and make your tackles, work hard,

Don't try and be the superstar.

Do your job.
