Sando sacked - confirmed **** crows only ****

[Elite Crow]

Just wanted to express my sympathy to you lot...I think it's terrible, in fact, an absolute disgrace, that Big Footy makes you read this thread and even forces you to post in it! You should start a petition.

Amen nothing like hinted censorship

I suspect others will decide it for him. Or have already decided. Did he knock back any job offers so that he could embark upon his study tour?

Not that I recall. Everyone assumed Bickley would give him a job, but they're cutting back on their coaching department spending, not adding to it, because of that equalization tax thing.

He was going to 5AA?

Keep the thread alive, it's fun watching a few on here play in the sandpit then complain when the sand ends up in an uncomfortable place

I'll always have some sympathy. He's a young coach, nowhere near the finished article and we knew that when we hired him.

He needed support, we gave it to him and then took the training wheels off too early. That's not exactly the best opportunity to succeed.

He's only had 1 year before he was cut loose via Bailey not being replaced. Tough gig for any coach & add in the palour of the sanctions glooming over everything.

Doesn't matter who you are anyone would struggle.

That said even in 2012 I was never convinced he was a very good coach. But a very good coach would also have struggled.

I think his biggest mistake was not knowing how to ask, how to demand help. Was their a culture of thinking asking for help = weakness? Dunno. Maybe he was stubborn. But a real man manager knows no one is the finished product everyone needs help.

Im glad that Sando made me believe we had a chance of the unthinkable in 2012, yes to use the common phrase, within a kick of potential happiness.

No doubt he was dealt a shit sandwich with losing Tippett and the draft picks. But ultimately he had no game plan and a good coach should at least be able to implement that.

Looking back at him in hindsight, there was plenty of writing on the wall when he would discuss stats all the time at post match press conferences.

You evil sick twisted spiteful nasty person, what about the hurt youve caused to all those involved with your witty one liner?

No shit.

It appears his break so far has really opened up his thinking thingy.

 

[Donkey Magoo]

For me the scariest thing was that we flatlined this year, we didn't get better, I can handle 2012 being an outlier, I can handle 2013 being a reset, but I just couldn't handle the stupid losses like melbourne.
