Re: I’m excited!!!

Richo initially declined to be interviewed saying he was happy at Port as Director of coaching, within 24 hours he changed his mind and presented.

Re: Why is Lethlean on the coaching panel??

That was in 2003, 15 years ago. Rocket was sacked toward the end of the season, Roos was the caretaker and did well, and instead of Wallace taking over as planned, Roos was given the job after a ground swell of support from the members.

Re: Hannebury - Indefinite

Not sure how hamstring awareness could be indefinite?!

A strain is maybe a week or two

A tear is 3 - 4 weeks, at worse 6 weeks

Hamstring Tendon off the bone 10 - 12

Dan is going to miss 18 weeks of footy with ‘awareness’ not even a clear injury

Sounds fishy?!

Re: Team lineup under ratts

Wtf called Nat Fyfe lazy

A competitive beast!!! Who attacks the the contest like an animal.

Blake has been at Stk Since 2013 which is 6 seasons

In Nat Fyfe’s 4th Season he won the Brownlow

It’s a silly comparison.

Mundy is a leader of men, and one of the most consistent players in the game.

Re: Why is Lethlean on the coaching panel??

What happened with Rocket and Terry in 1994?

Terry was assistant at the Bulldogs and about to take over as senior coach

Whilst Eade was soon to be coach of the Swans after Ron Barassi.

Re: Team lineup under ratts

Not really, he lacks competitiveness and aggression, he cruises around the ground waiting for someone else to give him the ball. Hopefully another club, preferably Freo see value in him and cough up a good trade for him. I was a bit of a fan, not ridiculous like some people calling him GOAT or the n...

Re: Do We Have A Rubbish Team And Will A New Coach Make A Difference?

Of course it’s my opinion, who else’s opinion would I write about?

But, if you give me a team, I’ll give you the three players if you want, then we can debate specifics

Re: List for 2020

I guarantee HM

Carlton will be contending before us, the coaching job there is seen as the most desirable coaching job since GWS in 2013. Which Cameron got.

BTW
Would hire Bolton in a heart beat, just not as senior coach.

Re: Do We Have A Rubbish Team And Will A New Coach Make A Difference?

Only GC has a worse list. We are just below Hawthorn, who are also rubbish. Carlton have heaps of Upside, with some really impressive talent, including who I think is the best player in the comp. Any team you name besides GC, I could name 3 players that are better than our best player, which is stil...

Re: Matthew Knights

He’ll probably throw his hat in the ring, but nope, we don’t want a failed coach.

Would be a good get as an assistant, but why would he leave the same job at a good club, to move to us.
