We already did. Well Geoff , anyway
Hunt played better under Griffin, the best we’ve seen from him. He was very average before that especially considering his price. It is clearly a mental thing with him. I didn’t see him gripe when Mary left. I’m worried he will revert to his old ways now his friend is gone. Maybe it’s best for us if he does go and the new coach can work with Sullivan or hit the market with all that cash.
He has already been told he can reapply for the job if he wishes
He is not indispensable. His best is behind him and he is using up valuable cap space. We need someone with clever ball skills and game management, so offloading him makes sense. If we let him go make sure the buyer picks up at least 70% of his wage as we have to derive some monetary gain from him.. after all he has cost the club some 7m.
If Carr gets us on a run & we win more than we lose he’ll pick up a gig somewhere if he’s not retained by us. Early days but I like him a lot.
I'm not saying too much because I don't want to put the mockers on him. Win, lose or draw, he is on a hiding to nothing but in fairness, it isn't his absolute fault in getting us relegated down to the bottom of the ladder. He might have contributed as an assistant, but we know that the biggest problem has now no say in the matter.
In Hook’s 3 seasons as starting head coach he’s had different assistants each year so i don’t think attributing blame to assistants has any merit. Obviously Young & Hornby knew something because they both bailed when Hook was appointed.
I know right? And just to add to that sentiment…Bennett has lost 2 grand finals…Bellamy has lost 4 grand finals…Carr has never ever lost a grand final as coach…just think about that!
