Rumour Phil Walsh to Crows

[Nemisis]

If it is Walsh I'd be surprised only because I never realised he wanted to be a senior coach.

I honestly don't think he would be a good senior coach. Has a lot of edges to his demeanour.

 

[Nelso]

If he got a head coach role we would let him go. You can't really stop them.
My only disappointment would be that we had to let someone go to bring him in last year.

Shaun Rehn will be pissed. He was very upset when Port had to let him go to bring in Walsh.

Last I heard is that Rehn is working on a mine site 500k's west of Brisbane and wants nothing to do with footy any more.

Just heard about this rumour and would be really pissed if this happens. I hope this can be debugged quickly! If it happens though, we should get Sanderson as an assistant as pay back!

Im not sure. All id heard is he was pretty much reclusive from the media. Tries to avoid it... hence why you would think he wouldnt want a head role.
That being said... sometimes theres an itch needing scratching

Whaddya mean we cant really stop them ? , we are a business not a training academy or a community welfare association , if they wont sign mutually beneficial agreements don't sign em . I know of a case locally where one partner wanted out of a business , he was paid out with the proviso that he sign an agreement to start a similar set up locally within 5 years , im not an legal eagle but im sure we could cover ourselves better.

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

He's gone then pfft more reason to bleed those campaigners next year

 

[ab56452001]

That is meant to be NOT start a similar business.

I could point out Daniel Gorringe or Paddy Ryder at this point.
It's generally accepted in the afl that you dont block assistants from taking head roles.

 

[Killer Power]

don't nit pick my comments so much , we are building well in the midfield going to take time to get perfect and every team has a massive run on in the midfield not Walsh's fault completely

Not saying its his fault completely, he is a very good coach. But he isn't irreplaceable. He can and will be covered if we are made to. Obviously i prefer not but losing a line coach is not going to close our premiership window.

 

[Power_boy89]

This has familiar feeling to the Richardson decision last year. Hoping its nothing but a desperate attempt. Really interesting as to who we'd get to fill that role though.....AGAIN

Generaly accepted , not by me , I don't think we should be so lax on this ,no matey matey with this , I reckon they get paid very well , so make em stick to contracts. Regards players clubs can and do enforce contracts .

ohh great... the baby with a mental limp is stealing all of big brothers toys now.

 

[loyalport]

Maybe ken will get to reunite with guy mckenna again

 

[ab56452001]

Choco , Primus , Sando etc , get the bullet and get paid out contracts = fair enough , Richo , Walsh leave early , do we get a breaking of contract refund/payout , bloody hope so ,piss poor contract management if not.

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

Get use to it, if we keep producing results we will have the vultures circling year after year.

 

[ab56452001]

That's what I mean , don't get used to it , play nasty cover our arses .

If i remember correctly we got 100k for Richo's departure.

 

[Doctor Feel]

I'm liking all this "it's his job if he wants it" stuff. It will be hilarious if he rejects them.

That was a special case because it was so late.

 

[chiwigi]

Hahahahhshahahaha nice one, the only person who will take them on is a Port assistant. Piss antry.

 

[Macca19]

If he goes, it sucks, but we will survive. You cant get around the 'we build a team, not individuals' mantra only to get our knickers in a knot when we lose an individual. We will move on and be stronger next year.

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

I bet their all getting hard on the yonder board lol, I thought they hated anything, everything & anyone that comes from Port Adelaide filthy phil
