Rumour Assistant Coach Gossip

[jac147]

I don't know what qualifications any of the coaches in the AFL currently hold, but don't a fair percentage of them go straight from playing into development roles in either AFL, AFLW or some might do a bit of coaching from a state league level first? It generally all happens pretty quick for an ex player once they decide that coaching is the path they want to go down.

If they want to get into coaching would you rather that did a stint of grassroots at Bell Park before coming into the AFL system?

Pretty sure most clubs aren't any different to ours, didn't Brad Ebert go straight from playing to a development role at Carlton?

I think Brad had some tertiary qualifications (Sports Science?) that had got in last years with Port. All of our coaches are the result of getting developments jobs once their playing days were over. Training on the job!

‘Maybe’ is the new word at Port.
