What is the knock on Daniels? Obviously a good player and has done a good job as coach at Tat without getting outstanding results which is bloody hard in country footy these days

Very good player indeed. Word going around is he struggles at times with his interpersonal skills and his off field stuff has raised concerns in the past. Can really create divides in groups and I think from what has been posted about players might leave etc, there is probably some issues there. It will be interesting to see where he lands next year.

They do any follow up on Harrop? The Netballers should lock up their Mothers and Grandmothers!

Look and it shouldn't a life sentence from Coaching for him either but I thought it was a bit rough if Daniels didnt pass reference checks and Harrop did so soon.At the end of the day its easy to pick holes in most people that Coach but they do show some plums to put themselves in the spotlight even at Country Level and the appreciation for them often isnt where it should be.

Not sure why the knock on Daniels from you scribe. You’re the one that first commented on the Murray league thread that Daniels and White were offered the numurkah job as co coaches so you obviously had some intel. This was heavily thrown around on Saturday night as where jamo was going. Asked white and he said numurkah had offered him and jamo the job as co coaches but in the end they knocked the job back. Obviously some knocks on jamo as coach and I agree it was time for us to get a knew coach (not the way it was done) but coaching for 5 years as a young bloke or any coach for that amount of time people are going to have a crack at you or not like things you’ve had to do or make calls on. Like a few have eluded, he hasn’t done anything near as bad as what Harrop did at shepp...

Ouch! The Shepparton thing. The question is which flawed character should they go with?
I recall there was criticism of Daniels personality type back when he was at the Swans post premiership. That said, thought he did a fabulous job for the first part of his tenure at Tatura. The club had no money and loads of players left. Put numbers into kids.
Some really good posts on the topic of Harrop and Daniels. Unfortunately for Harrop he has been caught out doing something that has failed many before him...thinking with his little head! It has been the undoing of many before him and will continue to be the way. As with anyone that has made an error in anyway I hope that he has the capacity to rebrand himself.He will live with the decision for the rest of his life. Surely he won’t go down the same track again
Wouldn’t have thought there was any knock on him at whilst at the swans so much silver. He was great whilst with us. More the signing on then backflipping and leaving for tat might have left a few not so happy and I can’t comment much on him post swans.
I’m a bit on the fence of his coaching capabilities but his personality was fine whilst with us anyway.

Is it possible that Daniels was ultra professional and expected to much from non or semi professional players ? All the commentary appears consistent with what has occured with similar coaches in the past.
Hearing Lachie Smith is on the move?
I always find it strange that clubs employ a coach and pay players professionally but then turn around and say the coach was too professional.
Which players in the GVL are living off the payments from there club to be professional ?

Where to ?
As you'd be aware Ringo1 clubs are littered with players with differing levels of committment especially at GVFL level. I'm not for a minute suggesting clubs get rid of coaches for being to professional , however having a high expectation of committment from players can result in fractions.
Has been named as assistant coach at Ky so you might want to check your mail.

If you are getting paid you are regarded as a professional are you not?
Fair enough but If you are getting paid then the expectation would be that you are professional in all aspects
Of your time at the club.
Yes with out a doubt you would like the to act professionally, I was just thinking that a player at GV level isn't his profession it's a hobby/sport ?
