Strategy Who should be our next coach?

[Milo Cyrus]

Skipworth and Cox would be on the interview list.

What are we seeking? success or just more mediocrity.

 

[BunjiMac]

Someone who is not clearly learning on the job, but trying the hardest to pretend not to be.

 

[1990crow]

My number 1 is Buckley.


But what about Rutten?

Has worked under Hardwick and Mark Williams was at Richmind as well.

Currently with Yze at Richmond again.

His tenure at Essendon was not too bad. Got them into Finals, and likely sacked because they thought they had Clarkson.




Pretty good coaching pedigree.

I'm not sure I would trust anyone other than Buckley to completely change the cultural failings of the AFC and attract good people.

 

[Pugsley]

Look at Norwood since he’s back at the club

He brings success.

 

[Pugsley]

I'm not sure I would trust anyone other than Buckley to completely change the cultural failings of the AFC and attract good people.

With the gig he has now, it would be hard to pry him out of there.

 

[WeeBlake]

He brings success.

Maybe he could replace Roo or Kelly

 

[Harris1991]

He brings success.

Would Bassett have the strength of character to choose his own path or would he fall in with the herd?

 

[clinto69]

I reckon Buckley if we could get him.

 

[clinto69]

My bias would say Bass but I don't think he ended on good terms with the club.
If we offered it to Rahilly, would he return?

Rahilly, is left field but I kinda like it.

 

[Pugsley]

Would Bassett have the strength of character to choose his own path or would he fall in with the herd?

He isn't a yes man.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

I don't think he's compromised his thinking ever

Probably part of the reason he's currently out of the insustry

 

[clinto69]

If we did go Bassett do you think a lot of people will say "it's the same old boys club blah blah blah"?

I am on the Bigfooty app, there is a picture that I would prefer not showing up for this thread.
Anyone else getting an unsavoury picture showing?

 

[Pugsley]

He is assisting at Norwood.

 

[aabp1978]

Buckley by a country mile. No chance he moves though. Board wont move on Nicks anyway, but if they did will be another Port assistant coach….

not that i know of.

 

[Geoffa32]

He brings success.

In the third best comp in the country.


No success at Melbourne, Essendon or Port while there.


Bass has been great for Norwood. As a coach, that is his level.

Box Hill Premiership Coach. Then Alister Clarkson's stoppage/midfield coach. Now similar role at Richmond.

Am I right in saying that Buckley did neither play or coach a premiership?

I think he has an unfulfilled desire in there still. Competitive beasts are born that way.

Buckley surely still has SA connections and roots. It's not like he's being asked to move to Russia! Additionally, he's a guy who has been prominent in the football spotlight all his adult life. He'd cope with the Adelaide media circus. He might even like it

I think Buckley is a sure thing to advance the chances of us becoming premiers.

 

[WeeBlake]

I'm not sure I would trust anyone other than Buckley to completely change the cultural failings of the AFC and attract good people.

Literally no one? Or just no one else on that list? I’d take Chris Scott in a heart beat.

 

[1990crow]

Chris Scott or John Longmire wouldnt choose to leave their current roles to join the Crows.

I am not against it. It's prying him out of that cesspool called Melbourne.

 

[Mutineer]

Corey Enright and Ben Matthews have done decent apprenticeships.

 

[WeeBlake]

Longmire, sure, unless he wanted a fresh challenge with a worse list.

Scott I’m not so sure. Their list is no better than ours imo, and still skews old at the top end. They might win this year, with some luck, but I think their prospects for the following five years are worse than ours.

 

[1990crow]

I could get around Enright. He'd have to be given license though.
