Apparently the Dogs were impressed with how Pratt marshalled West Coast's backline to 3 wins in 36 games.

Can't wait for season 2024.

Was also backline coach during their 2018 Premiership. So could go either way

 

[glenashley]

Thoughts on Pratt?

I think he was part of the WC flag side coaching panel?

Probably more impressed with the way they won a flag based on the back of their “weagles Web” zone defence, and have been a mainstay at the top end of the ladder since he got there.

Their list is cooked lol you can’t blame that on him

 

[Struggle]

Is Pratt the guy who ate a few Barry Hall elbows to the face as he was running off the ground?

 

[VitalDread]

Surely that’s not an option cannot possibly be going down a coach.

Is Spangher staying in his role do you think VD?

Yep
Staying in the forward role

And straight away someone fires in with a negative post.
Sheesh ........ it may save some posters getting ulcers if they move on and select another team to support.

Backline coach for the 2018 premierhsip.
At times in the last two years they had up to 16 players injured and games where they ended up playing with 0 players on the bench and injured players on the field to make up the numbers.

There's a bit more to it than just 3/36.

 

[JTCWBFC]

Obviously good he was around in 18 - any concern about the recent years?

Or is west coast just a write off the last few?

 

[dergert]

Yep
Staying in the forward role

Nah you lie

Definitely the latter. When a team's midfield is thoroughly cooked and then most are injured, the defensive coach has no hope.

 

[Unorth]

West coast have been tanking (except against us), won’t hold it against him. Experienced, had past success, not from hawthorn, st bedes or bevo’s surf club.

Happy with that. Happier that the information wasn’t withheld for some stupid season launch event.

And seems to be quite the character!

Don’t read too much into the recent results.

C'mon the Eagles have played the most antiquated style of football for the last 5 years.

The best football teams play a high pressure & turnover style of football. The Eagles play style is slow keepings off which has been found out time and time again.

I think this also proves that Edmund is the Dogs journalist of choice to leak information too. I've always suspected it but now this confirms it.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Really happy with the Pratt appointment he will do wonders with our defensive setup

We had a defensive setup ???

Push high and jump high (into each other)

So he's a prat?

 

[Golden_6]

Pratt is definitely the type of appointment I was after for a line coach. Proven success coaching his own line, no existing ties to the club and has also coached the Eagles WAFL team for some added experience.

Isn’t that Simpsons fault?
