Play Nice Bye Bye Brad #3 [Locked: BS signs 2-year ext. Aug-2017, tied to NM until end 2020]

[ozzyoslo]

You mean to tell me that trying to attract not 1 but 2 top players in the league may be dependent upon us have a solid and stable club?

Radical thinking this.

They'll burn you as a heretic.

Going by the crap spewing out all year from the media......thats exactly what will happen.

 

[ozzyoslo]

I had Hodge and Stevie J in mind, but I think that Hodge will go into media and SJ might be headed for GWS as per Mitchell.
The 2 I mentioned might be more realistic to coach at a team that they didn't play for

Hodge with his connection with the top dog at GC (his name I cant remember)........I wouldnt be surprised he ends on the AFL payrole wink wink nudge nudge to add some stabilty being and assistant at Gold Coast.
Whoever the coach is his placement there would keep players there to learn from him ...... even if he doesnt really want to go that direction (coaching) I think deals will be made later for him with a future role within the AFL establishment.

I'm still hovering around

You're the first candidate.

 

[Horizons_00]

I'm sorry if we don't get Kelly and we're not getting Martin I can't see why Brad should stay

 

[domiroo]

I have a feeling Scotts gone . He will be GC coach .

Let's play attack the person who says something we don't like.

What a fun game!

I was half-joking Stiffy.

Just find it interesting people claim that because NDS (and Drew) give Brad a glowing reference that it should impact on the club re-signing him.

Like as if he'll say in the media "Brad extended my career when Saints didn't want me, but I actually don't rate him so North should piss him off".

Drew would give Brad glowing praise after all he was gifted too many games in the latter part of his career

Lets hope so. There's been too much snake oil sold to these suckers.

 

[King Corey]

Well I'm not a hater but very unsure how I sit about extending Brad either.

Fail to land either target and I do think there might be a player perception issue about our club that's best reviewed against the performance of the club during the coach's final contracted year.

Let's face it, you could spin this to suit whichever way suits your narrative. We all know this - yes?

If 6 wins in the penultimate year of his contract was a pass then he doesnt get another go. Up until the bye we were okayish but then we fell away dramatically. The losses to Richmond/StKilda were as poor as I have seen in years.
On the other hand if Martin and Kelly do come across then yes he should get another contract as he would be a major reason why those boys switched across.

It means from the outside looking in, the club is an attractive place to be and the message being sold from within is that weve got our shit together.
If Martin and Kelly knock us back it means we are much much further behind than led to be believed and with that I think a Tudor or the like would be an adept replacement.

Collingwood loss was just as bad, or worse Taz.

I fear the latter could eventuate, would be a shocking result for the club I agree.

I put that down to the age of the squad and the letdown of a solid win against Melbourne and all the bum pats and high fives.
Happened after we knocked off Adelaide too.

If we get neither player across, i reckon we need to put the HC position up for grabs, not just hand it to Tudor.

Interview all and sundry, trim it to a final 6 and go from there.

Simmo might get the arse if they are 1 and done...

Coaches from Sunbury.

Well there you go..

Which surely would mean there is no reason we'd consider him, other than being an assistant.

Don't want Tudor - if Scott goes to the Suns we need a fresh voice and new set of eyes.

Try for the hail mary and go after Roos. If that misses look at a rookie coach - Barker or Dew.

IMO he will stay - if he is going then there would have been a plunge on Sportsbet from those that know. He is still $21.

He was down to $1.60 at one stage.

 

[Unity-28]

Gold coast bound i reckon.

Blown right out when it was found out he now has an extension until 2020. Barker is now $1.70.
