Re: Rob Harvey in the running for head coach role

Fully agree

Either Cousins or Harvey in the 09 GF for us, we win

Their experience and composure, gut running, skill and ball use would have been the difference.

Re: Skrobolak new Forward coach

Can you explain why a three time Best and Fairest midfielder and stoppage expert who coached the midfield in a triple premiership team, Was given a job as an assistant coach... to coach the forward line?! Are we in the business of putting coaches where they are suited best or are we up-skilling them...

Re: Rob Harvey in the running for head coach role

I remember a crucial set shot goal Harves kicked from near the boundary in the 05 final verses Adel, a game where he almost single handily got us the win, interstate, underdogs, Harvey at 34yo reigned supreme!

Re: Peta Searle in the mix?

Heard her coaching the girls at Sandy, a friend of mine plays for the Southern Saints

I think she may have found her level, not that impressed.

Re: NICK RIEWOLDT

I think Nick has a pretty fair understanding of the modern game, and the attributes needed for a senior coach... from a players point of view.

He would be beneficial on a coach selection panel....

He’s forgotten more about footy, than a board member would have ever known.

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

So we have 5 players that would get games at other clubs?! Is that the point you’re making? To me that’s an indictment on our list, and shows where we are at atm I think what the next 6 weeks will show AR wasn’t the only thing wrong with the club, but I suppose it will be the next coach who’s at fault

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.

Not really, he lacks competitiveness and aggression, he cruises around the ground waiting for someone else to give him the ball.
