Hope he doesn’t hold a grudge for Ross delisting him.Matt de Boer, you champion!
No current season stats available
Dude.Great Appointment for Matty.. would love him to one day assume presidency of Freo.. good to see back of Dale Alcock.. no positive legacy.. presided over trading out a two time Brownlow medallist being traded to Brisbane.. sacked a very good coach and then appointed the wrong bloke as the new coach which should have been josh Carr..hopefully Chris Sutherland can get the club back on track
Richard Goyder should be put out pasture.So Richard goyder is leaving as the club's thought he was too stretched having commitments to Qantas, Woodside and f.knows what else.
Are they both replacing him ?
Matty i reckon would still love and have a soft spot for the Purple. He doesn't seem like the guy to hold a grudge. And probably knows moving on when he did extended his career.Hope he doesn’t hold a grudge for Ross delisting him.

Dude,Dude.
Josh Carr was nowhere near a senior coaching role at the time Longmuir was appointed.
He’d been dumped from Port and sent to coach (albeit head) in the SANFL.
When has a second tier coach ever jumped into the big hot seat?
If that was your point, that he would have been be a better choice of coach, then that is what you should have said. Instead you said they should have actually appointed him instead of Longmuir, which as Drago said was never going to happen. Has a first time AFL coach ever been appointed whilst coaching at the second level this century? Let alone recently.Dude,
the point is josh Carr would be a better coach than Longmuir.. his departure this year and the midfield took significant steps back..Carr was favored for Tigers job but declined because he has been sold a succession plan to take over from Hinkley
If Carr was so keen to be a senior coach why would he wait another two years behind Hinkley, makes no sense!Dude,

Because he has a wife and kids who want to stay in SA?If Carr was so keen to be a senior coach why would he wait another two years behind Hinkley, makes no sense!
Sure, but if you desperately want to be a senior coach you take (almost) any senior coaching position and certainly a club like Richmond. I think his family would support his dream.Because he has a wife and kids who want to stay in SA?
Surely not. If you want a job of which there are only 18 in the country you are definitely prepared to move for it and so is your family. You can't really be in the running if you're aiming for only 2 of them. Far more likely he choose not to go forward in the process as the likelihood of not getting the job was so high it wasn't worth the damage you'd sustain to your reputation in not getting it (E.g. Scott Burns).Because he has a wife and kids who want to stay in SA?
A Feeder Club, one might sayWell done Matt.
In addition to being highly intelligent with law and commerce degrees, he is an absolute top human being.
Once again the Fremantle Football Club is shown to be a breeding ground for future leaders.
