Damian Drum – The Last One to Know
Damian Drum spent more time as the next AFL coach in waiting than he did in the hot seat given he was up for roles as coach of the Swans, Demons and almost had the Collingwood job before moving to Fremantle.
In one of the most notorious coach axings in AFL history, Drum learned of his sacking on live TV – just 9 games into his third season in the top job.
And yet, it allowed the former shed builder to embark on his most consequential role yet – two decades as a member of state and federal parliament.
