News Balme - Norwood to the rescue .. Glenelg .. GAGF

[George CantStandYa]

Because you're not aware of the scenario's, doesn't mean it was made up

Try doing some research first, then comment

So Wayne, you had a crack asking for relapse to do research, he and others have, care to address it?

Because it would seem the honourable thing to do would acknowledge you were wrong rather than slink away

You can't except the Jar Jar Binks of this board to acknowledge they are wrong.

Nicks doesn't have Ken's H&A record and can only dream of being a finals choker. Whether Balme preaches patience or not (sounds like Wayne just made it up), Nicks shouldn't be the beneficiary of that. He's used up his 9 lives.

If our next coach sucks, I hope Balme moves on him in quick fashion. I don't want a repeat of the circumstances that led to our worst ever coach being one of our longest serving.

After round 2 this year Nicks will be our second longest serving coach
Clearly the worst W/L % of all of our coaches

Don't you ever interrupt him mid slink again

That's so insulting to Jar Jar

What's troubling is the amount of seasons he is going to need to get it to positive territory.

Let's hope for his sake the Balme influence is good

It’ll be the ears that are listening ( or not ) that could turn out to be a problem

Jeez you're not wrong. If he coached another 2 years he'd have to go 39-7 just to finish at 50%.

 

[FR0GGY]

I could handle that

All this talk about Balme's physical condition, but we are forgetting the Burgess factor!

In all seriousness, I hope he enjoys better health and maybe having a mentally demanding but not physically demanding role will be a positive in maintaining his health.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Is a board role something that would be of any interest to him?

Barely any hands-on football stuff there surely, outside the big appointments for which he could be brought in on a consultancy basis

Hasn't he already said he's interested?

It would be perfect, he says he wants to step back but still help. His voice would be the voice of someone with extensive successful football experience “you want to re-sign Nicks now? What the **** for???!!!!!!!” “To limit noise? GTFO, you’re all weak as piss, you’re fired”

Plus I’m sure he could sit on list management and oversee any football department decisions.

Roo is chairman of football strategy and list management committees, I'd think that provides plenty of opportunity for hands on without the day to day grind. Those committees set the agenda and the paid staff implement, ultimately the performance of the footy dept is responsible to those committees.

72 today.

Cool, a few years with us and then he'll be old enough to run for POTUS.

 

[jenny61_99]

So, is Balme really happening? Or still just wild speculation?

 

[Jarman3]

Cool, a few years with us and then he'll be old enough to run for POTUS.

A few more years after that he'll be old enough to play for Geelong.

 

[George CantStandYa]

And Roo has another year before he has to get off
