Roast Sack Horse

[The King!]

Can we trade him to north? The more I think about it and calm down the more I actually just want him gone

Maybe swap him for Clarkson. Not that I'm a huge fan of him as a person, but he sure knows how to win premierships.

I'm surprised Horse hasn't resigned yet. What's taking so long. I would have thought it would have happened before Parkers news.

Much like Port with Hinkley, he's been told he's safe so why would he resign?

immediately?

Are they stupid?

 

[Tedeski]

Some of us identified his deficiencies years ago and have been calling for his removal for a long time

Those of us who did were shouted down by the majority, but we were proven correct

Sorry.
I accidentally came & Posted in the Port Adelaide thread. I’ll head back to the Swans thread now.
My apologies for intruding.

We got lucky that a succession plan from Roos-Longmire actually worked, because not many do. It's highly unlikely that we have the same luck if the Longmire-Cox succession plan happens.

Need a couple of young assistant coaches who have the desire to make a real difference and haven't been associated with the club at all. It's been the same voices for years in the coaches box.

Horse - Cox has a good feel!

 

[Tedeski]

I don’t want to be that club that pushes their coach. That would be a disgrace.
The guy has done all he can, better than 95% of all coaches that have come before him in the whole of the AFL.

We will never ever see our team play in 5 grand finals in 13 years under another coach.
NEVER!
You let such a person make his own choice to see out his contract. He has earned that right.
I love Horse for giving me a premiership as a supporter & for giving me some hope at least that we could win more.
It didn’t work out. Don’t hang him.

 

[Tedeski]

The only difference between Hinkley and Longmire is that Longmire gets us to one extra game.

Think I'd rather be Port, a hell of a lot cheaper!

No you wouldn’t.

 

[bedford]

I reckon he will announce at the B&F that he will stand down at the end of 25 and he probably deserves it

 

[TheGoatBaron]

No you wouldn’t.

Yeah who wants to be covered up by the tarps at a game?

Probably the sorter thing u say if u lose them 4 grand finals whilst giving your 100% effort ….sorry I love that you are trying to b the perfect supporter but your just wrong ,non competitive on the big stage on a number of occasions out weighs any home and away record he has I think with the talent he has at his disposal our scg record and support 90% of coaches could get us to finals ..

 

[sataris]

The question is, after 4 failed grand finals in a row. Is Horse the man to take the swans to the promised land?

Because bedders has threatened to burn down the SCG if they bring that traitor in.

How very circumspect.

I (waveringly) agree re: seeing out his contract.

I am, however concerned that he’ll seek an extension, borne out of a stubborn determination to “fix the legacy”.

And remember, the club has previously made absurd “he has the job for as long as he wants it” type statements.

 

[Swan4Life]

I really do encourage anyone who has access to espn to watch

Four Falls of Buffalo - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

in time you can look back and think what a gallant but flawed team. I feel like this might be the swans but for 2012.

That's not a valid comparison for mine.

Buffalo was a whisker away from winning the first one, lost the second by 13 albeit after a slow start, was badly slaughtered in the third and was leading in the 3rd qtr of the fourth.

The Swans, OTOH, were only remotely close ONCE in their four attempts.

The Bills head coach is still revered in western New York. The same cannot be said of Horse and his legacy.
