OK I dont rate Mary either. Our assistants just given a job cause of their standing within. I agree. Terrible decision...butThat's easy.
Demetriou, Cleary (Clearly passed on us - in talks and he knocked back the position because we did not agree on the issue of control), Bellamy (was never going to leave Melbourne) McGuire, even Toovey .
I won't even underscore Hasler, Henry, Potter and others who are also better than Mary.
Whether you agree or not, all these guys are streets ahead of McGregor.
There has never been any urgency to upgrade the coaching function.
Even our assistant coaches have no coaching pedigree.
The principle is very simple.
As one of the premier clubs, we should hire the very best coach that we can.
McGregor has never fitted the bill.
Demetrious NFI..never coached 1st grade
So Cleary & Bellamy passed on us...we tried!
McGuire maybe..dont like his style ATM
Toovey, Hasler.....YES from me
Henry, Potter....are you sure about that!
OK you may get 3..You win
