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.

Interesting read Bookie, good bit of research there. Ford and Craig are certainly in the same camp with that theory.

Will be interesting to watch how he operates down at CFC, although it may be a few years yet before he has to decide whether to put players through an increased mid-season training regime to ripen them for finals.

Demons faded this year too so it wasn't the training that was the problem....
