I'm not sure it's the coach who decides how much money gets to be spent.
The reality is BA was set in his ways once this front office joined.

BA was happy to do things his way which may have meant not enough was spent on maximizing specialist coaching like a Gasnier. Where BA was happy with his cliche & staff on a budget economy.

Yes we brought in Johns & Ennis but both lasted 12 months and i dont think they were too invested just there for an extra cash grab.

Sarantinos & McDuff did say all the resources are available just like it was for BA when they selling themselves to potential coaches when they sacked BA.

Where someone like Ryles has come in and gone i want 2 x attacking assistant coaches, 1 x defensive coach lets promote Cayless to the full time coaching staff and with work him not against him.

Ryles has embraced & sees the club for what is and wants to try and maximise everything he can.

BA was stuck in his shell & i don't think embraced that part of his coaching and maximise that part of the club.

He was there to manage the players.

So Ryles has the same number of assistants that BA had....no difference, 3 assistants plus Cayless.....

Sure, BA picked his staff, just like Ryles would have. But the CEO and board would have to sign off on any of these decisions. They were prbably happy to go with BA's staff because they were cheap and they were getting decent results.

Ryles has probably come along at the best time for himself. The club will have more money to spend now that the COE is almost completed and can throw it at the football club personnel. Would they have done the same thing if BA was still there? We will never know. What we do know is that they upped their expenditure after our disastrous 2018 season. They may have done the same here. Maybe they wanted to spend some money to get new staff but BA dodn't want to and that's why he's gone. I don't f**king know. All I know is that I like the way the team and this new season seem to be progressing so far.

I hope we do well.

It's not the coach's job to decide how much money he can spend on staff.
That's up to the CEO and board to decide. If they've decided to spend more on staff this year then awesome. Will mean we can get better people in those roles.

Why this year? Why this year are the same board and CEO willing to invest more???

I don't know.
But judging by their spending spree throughout the club as a whole (junior development teams, etc.) it seems they have.
Maybe they have had more money allocated tot hem from the Leagues Club. Maybe they have finished spending money on the COE so can focus more on the staff now. Maybe they've just decided that after two years of missing the finals they might have to open the purse strings to get back there again.

Whatever it is it's very exciting.

Doesn't the Leagues club give no money these days to the football club???

Ryles has totally transformed the club on and off the field in just 6 months.

Interestingly, the club also realised they needed to spend more after 2018.
