I've altered the thread title for accuracy's sake... Colbert's role isn't in coaching, but in a Melbourne-based roled of some kind.

(see here (http://westcoasteagles.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=307391) for the official article, which is wonderfully unclear about exactly what he'll be doing.)

from what i understand, he will be more of eastern states based informer for the club - basically giving woosha info on opponents, kind of like his eyes and ears on the eastern seabord

i would have liked to have seen him in more of a specialist or development role where his experience and character would be more of an influence - maybe this is leigh's foot in the door perhaps?

either way - i admired him as a player so welcome aboard!

Nah man the rewards for being a fulltime Dad are just simply unmatchable.

There is nothing better.

( Back to Back would be good though :thumbsu:)

P.S. Welcome aboard Mr Colbert.
