Justin Longmuir: From No.2 draft pick to 'compassionate' coach

Published: March 10, 2020, 7 p.m.

It's a harsh judgment of himself given his body was broken, but new Fremantle coach Justin Longmuir says that as a player he failed to deal with the expectation attached to being a No.2 draft pick. Longmuir was physically spent at 26. Thirteen years later, he is about to coach the club at which he played 139 matches.
As you’re about to hear in this edition of In The Game, Longmuir says he is so much wiser for being dealt the toughest of blows as a player.
