Yay, someone who managed to win a single game in the AFLW is bound to take us to glory .

It would be a training program to benefit her, not the men's team

 

[S.Patrol.G]

I wonder if Lauren was the most qualified and best person for the role, after an extensive application and interview process?

Even worse really.

Arnell wasn't exactly handed the Yankees Murderer's Row line-up.
She's building a young team from scratch. We weren't going to win the flag.

 

[Jonts]

Wasnt this news when she got the head girls job yonks again?

 

[Mundusa]

Even worse really.

Why would immersing our Women's coach in as much AFL coaching experience as we can be a bad thing?

I'm not quite sure of your point? If we are appointing a coach to work in the football program and coach our young forwards in the SANFL, I would expect it be the best person. If Lauren is that person, great, but it doesn't strike me as an overly extensive search. It's particularly concerning when our assistants panel is wafer-thin, apart from our next senior coach.

Sorry, I misunderstood your post, I thought you were addressing her Women's coaching role.

The same way underfunding the whole coaching set up is a stupid thing to do.

Not only that but we will also now have either:

A) she has nothing to contribute but will take time from an under resourced group.
Or
B) Be used in a position where there has been zero attempt to find the ‘best’ for the job.

The club are hoping for
C) she can contribute for the lowest cost possible.

Which is why we don’t win things.

Yeah, I mean it's almost like there's some cap on footy department spending, meaning clubs try to get creative with resources

If it's elite quality coaching, that's fine.
But remember who the coaches are that we are exposing her too

 

[Doctor Feel]

Lol our coaching line up is so bad. Nothing against Arnell but if this is what we are doing to top up our dire and empty mens coaching ranks...weve come full circle to bRyan Mcmillan.

At the cap are we?

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Yay, someone who managed to win a single game in the AFLW is bound to take us to glory .

0 premierships in 1 year is a hell of a lot better than 0 premierships in 10 years.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

My biggest concern with this is that we are taking a proven winner, and bringing her in to "learn" from a coaching group that thrives on mediocrity and "near enough is good enough"

 

[PatientMental]

If we're at the cap our club has embarked on the most poorly managed spend in the history of the game.

It's the 18th best coaching group but a fair margin

Gaslight me harder, daddy.

'There's a cap, so it's good we're only using 10% of it'
