No current season stats available
At least there's a Club now, which is unified behind its CoachEssendons the sort of club that needs a boss who creates divisions. Brad Scott is doing the same now.
Jade has failed at a couple of assistant jobs alreadyNot sure I am that excited by Rutten but any change is good.
Also not sure why he would take on the role, we couldn't offer him anymore than two years and he would know that Nicks is every chance to only last 12 months. I would of thought there would be more job security in Victoria.
Depending on what you want out of the role I'd go for someone like Jade Rawlings in a Senior Assitant role.
He has coached an AFL team all be in an interim capacity and can clearly coach himself. As far as I know none of Hombsch, Burns or Van Berlo have coached their own team.
I wouldn't have thought so either, most coaches only get one shot.I can guarantee you ....Rutten will never get an AFL senior coaching gig ....and there were big divisions around his last appt
I recall a few gaps in 2022 being due to suspension more so than injury.13 games in the last 4 years ....has never stuck 4 consecutive games together B4 getting injured
But he's made a lot of money NOT playing AFL
Generally speaking Twoomey is more right than wrong on most thingsHow good are his sources within Melbourne FC?
Being an ex Rugby player ...Preuss has a tendency to be over zealousI recall a few gaps in 2022 being due to suspension more so than injury.
Last time i recall seeing it was a hamstring injury but I feel he'd be a beast for someone if they managed to get his body right. Would add more over Strachan imo.
Love it in a ruck, makes the opposition second guess what they're doing a bit around him.Being an ex Rugby player ...Preuss has a tendency to be over zealous
Whose club is dropping back down the ladder? Dunno if I'd be using Essendon as a reference point for good decision making, in fact it would be the polar opposite for me. If Rutten's considered shit inside the four walls there, get him in as fast as we can is all I can say.At least there's a Club now, which is unified behind its Coach
If Luko goes public ans says its us and our F1 is part of the deal, we have to work 25 in there as well and do a package deal with a good pick back and get the deal done first. Melbourne can then take what scraps we have leftGenerally speaking Twoomey is more right than wrong on most things
Jade has failed at a couple of assistant jobs already
Someone should pin this post for commonsense. Well said.Our F1 is not worth pick 5.
First, it’s next year. A player picked this year can develop next year and even play next year. Unless it is immediately traded, a future pick is literally worth nothing for a year. Would you rather have $1000 now or $1000 in a year?
Second, the pick is unknown. The range is pick 1 to pick 22 or so (after academy and father sons). There’s a signuficant risk to the buyer they’ll get worse than pick 5.
So, it’s silly to say F1 = pick 5. It might end up being pick 5, but it’s worth much less.
Between 7th and 12th. Same as I thought this year.Where do you realistically see us finishing based on this year and current coach.
I agree with him - I think the Hawks will take a step back next year as sides catch back up with how to stop them.You have Hawks and maybe Carlton missing the 8. Have you not watched the Hawks this season. They should be closer to top 4 than out of the 8.
I think most folk have no problem with bringing ex-players back in if they've spent a reasonable amount of time in a good club environment and have proven coaching talentAmazing isn't it .....the board constantly blows up on nepotism for ex Crows players ....yet here we are advocating Rutten come back to the Crows as an assistant Coach
Why? .....give me a reason ....because all I can see is hypocrisy
We were short a coach anyway.Can live with Burns replacing NVB but I’ll be disappointed if he’s pushing Hombsch out. Would prefer we move on from him entirely.
Choke the dog?Why can’t the Giants walk their dogs?
Because they can’t hold onto a lead
Who knows, but the question probably isn't "what does Melbourne want"?How good are his sources within Melbourne FC?
Yes, I just completed a funded government study.Have you actually looked at Twomey's history of calls on us?
lol .. except Kristof doxxed himself, so I think you might be telling porkiesHe always thought you were Jenny
His record there is looking a lot better with time.I can tell you, the animosity towards Rutten at ESS was palpable .....hasn't the commanding personality
He's a very average assistant Coach
Done an excellent job at Richmond and very highly rated there.Amazing isn't it .....the board constantly blows up on nepotism for ex Crows players ....yet here we are advocating Rutten come back to the Crows as an assistant Coach
Why? .....give me a reason ....because all I can see is hypocrisy
I think Kornes is right when he says ex-senior coaches get put in the bin too easily in AFL. Rutten is likely to have more to offer us right now than, for example, VB or Burns.His record there is looking a lot better with time.
