The point: 'who should coach the side?'

If you don't think it should be Worsfold, who should it be?

You wrote a list - that's great. But which of these are preferable to Worsfold?

What have Ratten and Harvey done to impress you?

If you think Worsfold should go, you should be able to offer a cogent argument about a replacement. Otherwise you're creating a problem and not a solution.

The point is I don't think Worsfold is the man anymore. He has been found out as a mediocre tactical coach. If we sign him on to coach again we are accepting mediocrity and will become irrelevant in the AFL landscape. This is my main point. If we sign someone behind his back it is not being fare to Woosha and we wont be able to talk to all the candidates as people wont be applying. He has to move on and the best candidates will apply.
 
"Nisbett said the Eagles would not be talking to Paul Roos about coaching the club next season."

What the ****? A quick phone call at least would be in order if we are looking around. You should be sent packing too, Nisbett.
 
about Ratten, I thought he got the best out of the team. He built a game plan around the lack of talls and run and gun. Had they had Fev in 2011 they would have finished top 4 and he significantly improves that team. They were beating quite a few quality teams but just lacked the superstar in the forward line.

Harvey was merely a name. I would hate Harvey to coach us.

What have Ratten and Harvey done to impress you? Why do people keep talking about Roos when he has given absolutely no indication he wants to return to coaching?

After performances channelling the spirit of 2009 & 2010 over the past fortnight, all in the context of this ultimately disappointing season, perhaps the emphasise should be on WHY John should have his contract extended as opposed to WHO should replace him. As far as I'm concerned, his race has been run.

That was until we got arse rammed by the Colliwobblers tonight...........I hope they don't resign him.
But with all the Essendon drama, freo in the finals , I don't think much will come of it...as previous poster said
If Woosha really loves WC and wants the best for the club he should just walk away.

Maybe they know Roos has already signed with Brisbane or Melbourne.

OK. Who should replace him?

Unless you can actually make a case for a replacement, how sensible is it to call for Worsfold to go?

What the hell does that mean?

Are you just mentioning people randomly? What kind of an argument is that?

I think Harvey was mentioned on the talkback radio station you guys have in WA, 6PR I think?

I'd love for us to go hard for Roos, hell we'd be able to throw money at him and much more so then Brisbane and Melbourne.

Does anyone think Harvey would be an improvement on Worsfold?

Why do people ignore the fact that Roos has given zero indication he wants to return to coaching?

Make a case for him to stay. Unless you can make a case for him to stay, you have precisely no rebuttal.

I think that Worsfold's record overall is good enough that we are not bound to let him go. In the absence of an outstanding replacement that's good enough for me.

Those arguing for a change need to make that case.

If we sack Worsfold, we have no coach. If you want him to go, you have to be able to say who you want instead. Otherwise, you're stuck in limbo with half an argument.

What is your opinion mate? Do you think Woosh should stay? I think the club needs a fresh face. Who that is, I don't know, ill leave that up to the more informed posters.

This all started last year when they let Nic Nat go on a holiday with a dodgy groin instead of getting operated on straight after last season. That put us back from the start. He is no doubt our most important player

NicNat is just one player. We can't be counting on him to carry us to a premiership. We need a complete team, which we clearly don't have at the moment.

I just said it. I believe Woosha isn't the man. Thus re-signing him is accepting mediocrity. We are about being the best not being mediocre.

I remember why we feuded earlier in the season now, you cant read.

I don't know what that means.

Worsfold's overall record is good enough that we are not duty-bound to sack him. And if no one can make a real case for a replacement, then it makes sense to keep him.
 
RU serious ??
WTF do you think is the coaches role in a team??
Would you think instructing players on positional set ups & skills would fit into the coach job description ??
People like you should just stick to playing CHESS .

I can read - the issue is that you won't answer the question.

You want Worsfold to go. Who should replace him?

As for our 'feud', it was more a case of you saying something stupid and then being forced to admit you were wrong. A feud implies a back-and-forth but it's one-way traffic as far as you and I are concerned.

If you stick with Worsfold, aren't you stuck in limbo with half a coach?

What does that mean? Are you talking to yourself?

Would you have predicted that it made sense for Port to appoint Ken Hinkley senior coach?

You're happy to say there's nobody better to appoint as senior coach as Worsfold based on AFL record? Are you currently warming up a crack pipe?

Turn it up.

Overall record? The three years in the wilderness between 2008 - 2010 were coach killers, if not for the favourite son connection. This season's efforts have effectively written off the efforts of the two. Your blind devotion is staggering, almost Essendonesque.

You really are a broken record on this and frankly you're showing a lack of understanding of how key personnel decisions should be made.

In the last few years we've seen several new coaches come in, all of whom were untried before they got the gig. So asking for a list of coaches from people is nonsense. I'm
Sure the next batch of Woosh's, Roos', Lyons, longmired, Scott's, Hinkleys etc etc are out there now plying their trade as assistants.. I'm not worried about a plethora of choices.

You start by asking why should Woosh get a new contract. So why should he?

And "no one to replace him" is not an argument for him...

So why should he be retained?
