Coach Coach for 2025

[ziad]

And the counter to that is Pyke has already seen Cox operate as a Coach up close and personal, I would think that would be a very telling reason why Pyke wants him at the helm.

Or, doesn't want him.

 

[Monocle]

Or, doesn't want him.

Or that too.

 

[Elite Pete]

Cant wait until after the GF to talk to Cox, has to be announced within days of the GF at the latest youd think so the new coach can be involved in player movements

A lot of decisions will need to be made well before then.

 

[mad_eagle]

to be fair to Barrett, he was all over the Pyke to CEO at West Coast move last year. He obviously has a decent source…

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

I still don’t understand the big attraction to him. If he had never ever stepped foot in our club would we be after him based on him being an assistant coach?
To sentimental for me.

He’s the senior assistant at the current minor premiers and a club that’s pretty highly regarded as one of the best operators in the league. He nearly won a flag with them two years ago. He’s one of the assistants that’s regularly in the conversation as a coach in waiting.

So yes, I think we would be.

He won a what with them two years ago?

Oh yeah, they lost that game didn’t they.

I drank far too much that day.

No flag at Sydney mate.

No flag at Sydney mate.

What’s worse, I originally had “he’s won flags as an assistant at two clubs”. I’ve got a vivid memory of him embracing Simmo in the coaches box after the siren in 2018, but it turns out he’d already moved to Sydney that year.

Now I’m doubting everything I’ve ever known.

 

[ghostbat12]

would not mind throwing kitchen sink at C.Scott (BODE coach, I know)! 5 years at $5m and see what comes of it.

few HJ stores - take them off Simmo maybe.

 

[Bender_]

Is it a bad look to hire the guy you have to beg to take it?

I’d rather have someone who wants the gig.

This sounds weirdly like relationship advice.

Gone with it twice in 5 days too. Confident

I had a brief chat with Coxy, walking into the MCG on GF day 2018, so you may well remember footage of him embracing Simmo on GF day, just not in the coaches box. He was definitely there.

You could have probably named half a dozen mids thats cox tapped to before you arrived at Matty Rosa’s name.
On a side not it’s crazy that one ruckmen played alongside three Brownlow medalist and two other blokes that were close to being one too.

There's a difference between not wanting the job and not wanting your current employer knowing you want out
No idea which it is but the more ppl we can put through the process the better I guess

Don't recall Rosa coming close to winning a Brownlow, tbh.

Already did a throwback prank from a decade ago by stealing Gov's keys and moving his car on the preseason camp in Dunsborough.

That would be about right time. Plenty of candidates to interview for senior and assistant roles between now and then as each club fails to progress. Next week 10 teams are done.

Schofield still hard to beat for the Coach position, Press Conference he seems a good fit ...
