Preview Next AFC Coach For 2016 & Beyond

[Wright Away]

Having a big laugh at the 22 people who voted for campo.

Fair enough he is a caretaker in a horrific situation, but he stinks. Won't get an interview. Maybe, MAYBE, he is ok at being an assistant.

 

[Crouch#44]

That's the selectors fault, they've fallen into old habits now that Walsh isn't there to over rule them.

Grigg still holds no contract offered!

Seems a shame if our selection panel denie him a game to prove his worth

What if another club has come knocking and a trade is going to happen. Would you still pump games into him?

depends if you want to keep him...

To me, it would depend on the offer 1st. And what Grigg wants.

 

[Sanders]

Clarko took Hawthorn to 3 premierships.

Whoa #mindblown

 

[Sanders]

Ima just gonna say it

I'd be happy with Campo, particularly if woosha is staying as DOC

Disappointed you're not with me on the Jane Woodlands-Thompson train

You and I need to talk.

It could be a lengthy discussion, so perhaps some fine single malt is in order. (I'll bill the mods.)

 

[Footypie32]

As ambitious as this sounds, I think we need to get at least two of the coaches mentioned in the poll. With the exception of Woosha, I don't think any of them are the equal of Walshy and so expecting just one of those blokes to come in and put the club on his shoulders is a big ask.

If the mods are paying, why not go for the 50 year old?

 

[JimmyTheScoop]

I am warming to the idea of Woosha DOC, Dew as Snr Coach (Woosha being his mentor). Pyke is up there, but will he want to leave WA? Has anyone asked him, Perth media etc. No one will ever replace Walsh, so maybe we do go for a different model. People keep banging on about where Sydney are at now, but where were WCE when power got Walsh? Assistant coaches follow the Snr coaches plan, not their own. Dew has been involved in several premiership sides including Hawks and Swans etc.

My next question is, if we go for a new model, do we turn over a few more assistants? Where is our premiership window now? Can we still get there in 2 years? Next step is we go aggressive in trading and drafting. I want us to feel that we actually got the better end of the deal, and be tough mongrels to deal with to get our man/men! I believe this trade and draft period will really determine just when the window will open. I just hope the new coach can get his fingerprints on the list. I loved hearing that Woosha is involved in list management, surely that's a good sign. Just my thoughts, ask me tomorrow........

That may cause hot flushes

We absolutely have to keep Grigg. Our disposal efficiency has been an issue for a long time, and Grigg actually has some polish.

This is more a function of our players not spreading into space. And our structure at stoppages where players are not positioned on the outside.

Watch how Hawthorn makes space. Not every kick is lace out on the chest. The recieving player runs so it is easy for the kicker to kick to advantage. Yes they have good kicks, but our structures have exasperated our weak kicking.

You poor bastard.

Campo stinks.

 

[MRB37]

Rucci trying to get Campo to show his hand on the coaching job in the post match presser. Campo not biting.

 

[Rollerball]

Well however things pan out kudos to Campo for doing his bit getting the club through a tough time. Feels like he has done a good job getting the players to focus back on the footy.

 

[CROWS84]

So apparently Woosha through his hat in the ring for the coach's job in the presser? Delicious.

Wait. Wut?

Hey Sanders. You said you'd be comfortable with Campo as head earlier. Can you expand on that and tell the board why you think it should be a consideration? Thanks.

 

[Roo Lives Again]

Campo got us a great win in the Showdown, we beat Richmond, if he gets us another impressive win or two does that make him a shoe-in for the job?

No, he'd have to go through the process like everyone else. But it like having a gazette.

Did this happen? If so--I have to say bad form by Woosha. Campo deserves his 24 hours on this victory. I have no doubt Woosha is helping mightily in his role, but geeze so not the time/place.

Not sure where you heard that in there.
