Yep, can’t step up and can’t hold his nerve this bloke, not like a leader would.

Calls for a head coach apprenticeship are well premature, but let’s be serious here about who Luke Shuey is.

Footy is largely instinct, not all can deconstruct actions and teach others well. It's a very different skill.

It’s not just our talent identification that’s the issue, but also our lack of player development. I can’t remember the last time we had a late draft pick be developed by our club into a decent player. We seem to do the complete opposite of what we should be doing with players - for example, we take a guy like Brayden Ainsworth who was an inside ball winning player at junior level and we put him on a wing. He has the worst kicking skills in the competition. Why would you put him on the outside where you need good skills when he doesn’t have good foot skills? It makes no sense.

Johnstone looks ok

Michael Jordan could coach for beans

(Ginbey) Athletic profile but a slow thinking footballer with average skills at best. Hewitt - best in the glue factory?? Chesser is now very unlikely to come good.

Patience. Time will tell. Early days yet. Better to put your energy into slagging our 60+ game mediocre list cloggers.

Can you name one positive culture trait Luke
Shuey had at the club during his leadership??
His captaincy period was in line with the worst period in our clubs history so the culture he brought as a leader can get in the bin.

Shuey oversaw a drop in standards across the board. Clearly glass and hurn were actually installing minimum standards.

Differing interpretations of leadership as well, perhaps. I think he has shown he can lead by example onfield, but there’s more to it than that

30 game mediocre players soon become 60 game mediocre players. Ginbey is just an example of a wider issue, he isn't the problem.
Look at the number of players with well under 30 games that stood up very well under real pressure over the 4 finals. We have one likely one - one since Judd.

Cuz led by example onfield but took the team with him in standards. (not always good examples)

I honestly think the club would love to employ Schofield. (Unless a Chris Scott type is gettable)
But I reckon they are worried that if they do the fans and members might be worried its just one of Simpsons men and they can't get passed that problem with Schofield.

I have no doubt if Schofield was at another club her would be a lock for the job.

I can remember being thrilled when Schofield came onboard as assistant coach thinking at the time would like to see him take over from Simmo one day - as I was impressed with him both as a player (being a tough nut and all) and then his coaching at Subiaco - as to me he’s always come across as a no nonsense type with no favourites.

Petch has played more than 30 I think

 

[frenchconnection]

Wouldn't every coach (including assistants) have indifferent things said about them given they all have favourites and would be advocating for some to play over others?

I’ve heard the same thing about Montgomery although admittedly it came via Brad Hardy so I guess has to be taken with a grain of salt lol!

That’s the thing though too many of us get a bit impatient with young players not coming on as how many years has it taken for Waterman to show his worth. Occasionally you get players who shine almost immediately and then there’s others which take time. Can remember thinking Glass wasn’t much chop in his early days but then was made to eat my words as when he came on he came on very quickly.

World sport is now riddled with young high performing athletes. Possibly the strong focus on early talent ID and professional development short circuits the traditional kids into men journey.

Trying to create it, bring it into being by speaking it and pressing for it

In these parts he's highly revered for his journalistic nous and referred to as Splinterdick.

He’s a bit like a Lyrebird

Has a habit of repeating what others have said/written and framing it as if it was his work

Adam Simpson was a big fan of his work

WOODCOCK!!!
