But Broadbridge has naturally supported an independent coach, not necessarily the reigning premiership coach, taking on the interstate program. South Australia favours implementing its flag-winning mentor in the top job with former Fremantle midfielder Josh Carr, who led North Adelaide to the SANFL trophy last season, at the helm last weekend. Broadbridge guided the WAFL to the first win by a WA team over Victoria in Melbourne during the 2017 season and last year ended a 24-year drought in Adelaide when the Black Swans defeated the Croweaters. However, now the Sandgropers have had to handover to South Australia the Haydn Bunton Jnr Cup, named in recognition of the player and coach who had great football successes in both States. The WAFL and the SANFL are the only competitions still engaging in interstate competition. The VFL withdrew two years ago and the Tasmanian, New South Wales and NEAFL leagues lost interest after heavy losses.
