Congratulations if true.

I think the clubs process has been well handled tbh.

Now hes got to get busy:

List - Walsh
Game Plan - changes introduced.....gonna be interesting to see how long they take to implement.
Salary cap
Draft.

No rest time Scotty....

No time and cant risk the off field media attention a new coach hitting the bottle at St Kilda woul bring.....

If we got Fevola and he ate a Salada it'd be front page Hun with headline:

If they've selected and signed him, why not announce him right away?

It looks as if the decision leaked 5 minutes after they made it, so why are they bothering to wait?

Anyway, good luck Scott. Unlike many on here who appear to have psychic abilities, I have absolutely no idea whether or not you were the best candidate, or whether or not you are going to make it at AFL level.

I reckon it'll be a very tough gig but i'm pretty sure that the players, fans, and everyone connected with the club will be 100% behind you. So go for it! Why not aim to equal Brad Scott's achievement and get a flag in 2012?

The club understands and are realistic enough to know it will get out...the official announcement is just a formality and for a new coach to put his philosophy and mission statement forward for the supporters and sponsors.

Good point.

Love to know who he is bringing with him and whether Harves and a couple of others will stay or move on.

The next few weeks will still be very interesting.

if i was the club i would bring in peter german as a development coach who coaches the VFL club and provides advice to watters.

max hudgton as a backline coach.

harvey probably wont stay so we need a midfield coach.

do we persist with kingsley as a fwd coach.

do we need a clearance coach?
