His weight none of my business, if that's the question.How did you feel about Dew?
Getting buy in from the troops is a key aspect of leadership. If you think that being morbidly obese has no impact upon that, then it's you with the problem.
not continuity above everything else.
For normal people it's got to be a distraction... because you need a job so you are out there looking for one.I’ve never understood how not renewing a contract before it expires can be a distraction from your job. They are supposed to be professionals and keep their focus on the task at hand.
If they can’t and it leads to poor selections or game day decisions then they’re not the right person. How would they hold up in a grand final under immense pressure?
There’s also an advantage for the coach if he doesn’t renew until the the end of the contract and he takes the team deep into finals or even the whole way. Imagine his price then!
He just looks like a thumb with a beard nowNicks looks cooler with a beard. Less thumb-like.
Without a photo reference... I would consider the following coaches as "obese" compared to their glory days.Imagine looking at that picture of Burns and thinking that’s a morbidly obese man. Ridiculous. That’s a very normal looking man of his age from what is probably an unflattering angle.
Yes he’s been fitter when he played but there could be a million different reasons as to why he might have a bit more fat on him and frankly none of them are anyone’s business but his own.
I see your point about driving standards but other than his personal health there is no reason players should be concerned with his physical fitness.
A coach can lead by example by arriving early, being prepared, presenting themselves professionally etc. Why would there be some creepy interest in his weight?
The idea that a coach needs to maintain their playing physique is ridiculous.
WTFWithout a photo reference... I would consider the following coaches as "obese" compared to their glory days.
Voss
Hardwick
Hinkley
Longmire
The GWS guy (having a mental blank.... probably due to my body shape)
Brad Scott
Mitchell
Fagan
Clarkson....et al
I have never heard of any negative comment about Scott Burns. In fact, based on the above list, he's prime to win a promotion to senior coach sometime.
Maybe even at AFC??...

Perhaps out of context. The post responds to 1770 earlier post that obesity can reduce a coaches leadership potential.what a weird post, did John Who steal your login?
That's a penis.gifHe just looks like a thumb with a beard now
Sure if your base line is when they were elite level athletes in their 20's.Without a photo reference... I would consider the following coaches as "obese" compared to their glory days.

People realise metabolism slows down after 30 right? I'm 37 now. I can't eat a block of chocolate or smash cans of coke without noticing an emerging pot belly anymore.
Would love to see all the comments where people were suggesting he should have played Centre square - rather than wing.
I am sure there were one or two, but that would be about all

Always the optimistIf they're waiting for Thebarton to be finalised this could take the whole season
Can anyone give me a decent reason we shouldn't just wait until the end of season to sign Nicks? I've previously said bye week would be logical but our inbred neighbours did something like that and it backfired.
