Strategy Back of House Discussion: Targets, Changes, Appointments & Facilities

Nope.

He's someone I do think of when I hear"Perthonality". Media types (social or otherwise), colourful crime figures etc not the coach of the Australian Cricket Team or State Treasurer.

Langer was an true elite level coach of a national team competing in an international arena. Light years beyond AFL coaching experience.

If he was so good why did C.A. only offer him a short contract which he refused to accept.
Wasn't he in Simpsons corner in 2023 when there was talk of terminating his contract.

He went full Brocky and the Polariser apparently

In 2019, he coached Australia to the semi-finals of the 2019 Cricket World Cup, losing to England by 8 wickets. It was noted before the game that Langer had got Australia to walk barefoot around the edge of Edgbaston before the match in a bid to capture "positive energy coming out of the earth"

they all moved on, but he brings experience at the highest level. Bit like saying Buckley has not status or knowledge of the game as he was sacked.

Wrong analogy Buckley has coached and successfully played Aussie rules at the highest level,
Langer is a cricketer who probably last played Aussie rules in Grade 7 primary school

[WCE_authentic]

Wyatt's a lawyer and former State Treasurer and Langer's an experienced coach who experienced a lot of success. They sound like the sort of people that should be on the board?

No we dont need lawyers/politicians or failed coaches with a permanent scowl.

I think you missed the point - he isn't on the board to provide football strategies.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Somehow we’ve reached the point where Langer’s experience as head coach of the national cricket team isn’t relevant but the circumstances of him leaving that role are relevant.

What a world.

WC probably make finals if Simmo makes the player's walk around barefoot

On MRP they'd all spontaneously combust.

Would force us into a full rebuild.

What is he on the board for ?

Not sure where the coaching discussion is going on?
Any thoughts on the three candidates and the most likely to get the job- King, Skipworth or MacQualter?
Of the three, King appears more hard arse and comes with Scott's recommendation...fwiw.

Can confirm he was an angry bugger on both sports fields then too. My younger cousin played against JL a few times, mainly cricket.

Can also confirm. I played against him in footy and cricket all high school. Bowled him out few times too if I don't say so myself!

bunga really retired, disappeared into the wilderness, then came back a year later as a coach
