Re: I'm speechless

I had grown to like the idea of Williams being our coach. I could certainly see that having a mature, proven person in the job had obvious benefits. I guess I'd found a way to welcome the idea that he was a bit different and to overlook what looked like it was going to be a dodgy process to appoint ...

Re: Surely not the next best coach

Why aren't we talking to Worsforld? Surely he's the best available coach! Left the Eagles to patch up his marriage woes Maybe the move to Victoria is just the tonic needed for him and his marriage? I'm neither 100% sure nor up to date on this but I believed that his missus had walked out and partne...

Re: Poll - who do you think should coach next year?

Probably prefer Tudor, but given that deep throat has said Williams, I'd be silly to spend much time expecting otherwise. (Can I sit on Pav's interview panel?)

Re: The Reasons re Watters

That is some list. If there are some elements of truth to every bullet point in jaxons' post then you are left wondering if there are good points. I mean there's not much left. If it was that bad then clearly the club had to act. Watters is never going to be a senior AFL coach again. He will strugg...

Re: So what is the club structure exactly?

I think that a big part of the reason that we have a Head of Football who seems all powerful is that our history of the Head Coach having all the power got us into all sorts of strife. Admittedly most of our issues happened over the last ten? Years when club/management structures have really been ev...

The leaking has stopped, but Caro has to keep going to feed her ego, or look stupid. She's now making a rod for her own back. Initially she was reporting what she was told by someone with an axe to grind. Now she's just making it up, to look like she knows all, and just looking stupid. Has it stopp...

Re: St Kilda 2014 Fixture

I can see why they didn't give Watters a contract extension. Minimum performance expectation should be 4 wins from the first 9, and possibly 5. IMO we really should be 5-5 after 10 and if we're not (barring catastrophic injury) then SW will have had his time. As harsh as that sounds. First 10 round...

Surely the only appropriate thing with de-listings is to tell the player/s involved personally rather than spreading it over a fan forum.
