When do we call time?

[Gary Gutful]

Considering we have just conducted a wide-ranging review of the club as a whole, I’d say that process has already begun, so no, it’s not up for debate.

Is that the same one that most people have been critical of? A review is one thing. Implementation and follow through is another. We've all been part of review that goes nowhere and achieves nothing.

Are you just accepting that this process will magically sort it itself out? You can't arbitrarily decide that it isn't part of the discussion when it is still in its infancy.

The coaching issue absolutely needs to be prioritised because our current coach’s contract is up at the end of the year and whoever will be coaching from 2020 onwards will need to be making some pretty bloody important recruitment decisions with nearly 7 million dollars available at this stage to play with.

How do you not see that?

If we actually implement the review properly then we can probably stop panicking as much about the role of the coach as there will be proper support and governance around important decisions.

It was pretty hot at the start of the season.

How hot was it in the middle of the season? To the nearest decimal point is fine...

24.4 in the afternoon, 17.6 at night.

Well in that case he's f**ked.

P.S. I think if we sat down over a couple of milton mangoes we'd be able to concede a few things either way and find we agree on more than we disagree.

@Happy MEel is no fan of XXXX. You'd be arguing over more than who's coaching.

Yep, I have no doubt that would be the case. I get lazy after a few beers so I’d be easily convinced.

He’s right. Cat’s piss!!

 

[Twizzle]

I think we should give him till half time in round 1, we should know by then

 

[Gary Gutful]

He’s right. Cat’s piss!!

On that we actually agree.

 

[hineyrulz]

On that we actually agree.

Stop lying to yourself.

Footy clubs obviously value coaches a great deal. That's why they pay them the big bucks. There's nothing stopping the club from doing the things that you suggest are more important and also getting another coach.
And with that I'm out.

I don’t disagree with that. I just have higher expectations on who that coach should be.

Avenger suggested round 13 is d-day. Let’s say we are in the same position after round 13 with 2 wins and 11 losses. Do we keep him if a premiership winning coach isn’t available?

I don’t think anyone on here would be happy to keep him if we start like last year?? That would be idiotic imo, it will all be much clearer when we start 7 and 5

Call time, who would come, no one, well no one with a clue. Parra smells right now.

You would be surprised. There are only 16 head coaches jobs. Holbrook is the man I reckon. Lots would apply. Its probably a good thing the Maguires, Haslers, Bennetts etc are now contracted.

 

[Mr Angry]

Yeah I would be, Hence you keep Brad.

You smell. Smell of off fish.

Akin to a gummy on peps, no doubt.

What type of fish? Surely a marine biologist could be more informative when discussing their profession...."FFS!

I dont think so. Some thought Flanagan would be a target but I hope thats not true. Time will tell Sharkie.
