New Sydney coach Dean Cox forces players to watch replay of crushing AFL grand final

New Sydney Swans coach Dean Cox has already made his players sit through a replay of their crushing grand final defeat to the Brisbane Lions.

Cox took over from long-time coach John Longmire at the end of last month, after Longmire shocked the AFL world and decided to walk away from the position in the wake of 60-point belting at the MCG.

Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Cox has revealed the club isn’t hiding from their abysmal display on the last Saturday of September.

“That was our last performance as a football club,” Cox said.

“It wasn’t nice to view it but it was nice to be able to move on, to be able to see it and hopefully implement the things we want to do.”

More to come …
