Been employed for a day and already told one of his bosses they need to shout the bar for their phone ringing.

That's just normal. You age pretty fast in a head coaching position.
That was also a shot in the dark, although, it luckily really worked out that he fortunately had the skills to manage a club, but he also had the benefit the team wasn't bottoming out before his appointment, and most of the players had finals experience.
But Simpson vs McQualter in coaching, Simpson is objectively the better coach, so it's a downgrade. This is like an apprenticeship for McQualter, which doesn't benefit the team. It would have been better picking someone who had already managed an organization, similar to Fagan before he was senior coaching Brisbane.
Yeah, very strange, especially considering McQualter spent more than twice as long as an assistant and was involved in more flags.A bit obvious saying Simo is the better coach. He was head coach for 10 years.
20 20 hindsight is a wonderful thing.
And there were plenty of doubts when he was appointed.
Give the bloke a chance.
Our journey begins - the future will tell a storyYeah, very strange, especially considering McQualter spent more than twice as long as an assistant and was involved in more flags.
Interesting smattering of players at the conference, including rotham witho and jackson nelson

If I was a career criminal and the new sheriff rode into town I’d be doing everything I could to show him it was worth giving me one last chance with a suspended sentence.Yeah rotham one was weird specially with all the Essendon talk, obviously hoping he can steal another year at the coasters.
Seen 3 flags, seen Melbourne and Ross. Fair background. He also isn't our list manager.Didn't really know what to make of Andrew, the background at the tiggers during thre 3 flags is the biggest tick in my books. Watched the presser and although he he was clearly quite nervous came off as engaging and trying his best to not sound like a cliche.
First order of business is delist Rotham/Witherden
Edwards Burgiel and Culley get one more.
Dont bend over for a 27 year old B grader and a bloke looking to pad his super with a nice 4 year contract.
It’s a bit of a generalisation, but VFL / AFL football, is littered with average to poor footballers that have gone on to be outstanding Coaches.
Pagan
Clarkson
Jeans
Sheedy
Lyon
Malthouse
Often those who had to work harder at their craft and think more about the game to compensate for their middling talent, have gone on to be some of the leagues best coaches.
Let’s hope we have found ourselves one here.
I see his age as a positive, will grow and mature along with the playing list. It's exactly what we need right now.
Didn't understand the calls to go and get some 50 year old seasoned coach, we need someone innovative who can connect with the younger generation.
Disagree, you get the best available coach. their age is of no relevance as long as they are up with the current game. Did you not just watch who coached the most recent premiership team?
Did you read the word "joke"?I see what you're getting at. When picking a coach it doesn't matter if they are shit at the job as long as they can act like they know what they are doing.

Nah. It's got to be Dean Cox.Incorrect. It’s Caro.
