For those of you who are younger, Malthouse began his coaching with Footscray in 1984 and coached the team for 5 years. We only made the finals once and that was in 1985 going down in the prelim by 10 points to the Hawks. We really should have achieved more but a few injuries to star players really killed us.
The 1985 team was one of the best I have seen, with some great imports from WA like Andrew Purser, Brad Hardie, Jim Sewell to name a few and of course the great Simon Beasley.
Malthouse was still learning the caper with us and set himself up for a fantastic coaching career.
Record at the Doggies was Still pretty good,
Coaching 137 games, with 69 wins, 66 Losses and two draws.
