Paul Ford is a very good appointment and seems to specialise in the younger players physical development. The guy has some excellent AFL experience and will hit the ground running.
Just a funny read as a 20-20 hindsight piece. Note the article is dated September 4, 2004 a few weeks before his (Ford's) departure from Melbourne and in that days elimination final, the Bombers went on the beat the Dees by five points and Paul Ford was looking for new options.
