No surprise at all. Can't really stay on the coaching staff of the guy who beat you out for the Head Coaching job, can you?

From the looks of things it'll be a completely fresh coaching panel next season. For some reason, that's exciting.

Is Longmuir staying? He'd be just about the only one.

Should be chasing hard for Voss as senior assistant/mentor to Simmo, in my view.
 
Does anyone know if Voss is 100% at the Pies?...if not he would be a perfect senior assistant.

I suspect Burns has taken the job that Voss was earmarked for.

If they do end up together at Collingwood they'll have plenty to talk about:

On Gillette Trade Radio, former Western Bulldogs champion Scott West says he has decided in the past couple of days to resign as coach of VFL club Werribee and seek another opportunity as an assistant coach at AFL level.

Just got this quote from the Trade radio website, I would be surprised if we haven't spoken to him, would be a good fit in my opinion, although I certainly would not be opposed to Voss as well as mentioned by a previous poster I would think that Burns just got the job that Voss was in the frame for.
 
No surprise that Burns is leaving.

Means that Longmuir is the sole survivor from this years coaching panel.

Three new assistants now required or Simpson is going to be a very busy man

As someone with head coaching experience I think Voss (or someone like him) becomes a vey important person to target as a senior assistant since we are going to be light on for experience otherwise
 
I would have thought Worsfold would be the ideal director of coaching.


I would not like John Worsfold as director of Coaching if I was Simpson, maybe in a year or two but certainly not now.
He has to do it his way and any ties to previous coach must be cut.

Fresh start must mean fresh start.

Eagle Scott West applied for the Essendon Coaching position and he is also been linked to a position back at the Western Bulldogs. Before Werribee he worked as a part-time midfield coach at Melbourne. Scott indicated he would travel anwhere to get an assistant coaching position: We probably have spoken to him if he developed our midfield to the way he played he would be a good get.

FORMER Collingwood captain Scott Burns has quit his role as West Coast assistant coach to join the Magpies coaching panel.
Burns, who played 265 games for the Magpies between 1995-2008 and captained the side in his final season, will work as an assistant under former teammate Nathan Buckley.

The Pies are restructuring their coaching panel after director of coaching Rodney Eade took on the role of general manager of football, vacated by Geoff Walsh mid-season.
 
I look at our football department and I see a sick Danniher, a first year coach and Longmuir. This could get very ugly.
Don't worry too much about Daniher, he'll still be good for the club in handing over.

Has Mark Harvey (ex lions) got a gig as an assistant somewhere else? Why no love for him as an assistant?
 
If it was a quarter as reflective of the way West played we would be a much better side;).
Disagree with this so much, completely overrated player........
 
I'd say our midfield is already highly reflective of the way Scott West played.
. West was a tough "in-and-under" midfielder who was hard at the ball, especially around the stoppages, and was regularly one of the leading possession accumulators in the competition. wiki

...but didn't do a whole lot of damage with his high number of possessions, that's the knock on him.

Reminds me of someone, can't quite put my finger on it...

They must have meant the Batman guy. :confused:
