Starting to think the Roovolution might not be as well thought out as I'd hoped...

Fire Sando.... now what?

Who said "No news is good news". This is just bloody frustrating now.
The longer this drags on the more obvious it is that there was never a plan in place. They simply sacked the coach because he'd lost the players.
Just give Bassett the job, after all his early coaching career is actually more impressive than Clarkson's. Clarko started at the Dogs in 2001 and inherited a team that had just won the 2000 flag and had been finalists the 7 years before that. They won the 2001 flag and lost the 2002 GF before he moved to Port as assistant in 2003. Bassett started at Norwood in 2010. He inherited a team that had only made the finals once in the previous 7 seasons and were generally regarded as a rabble. He coached them to a narrow grand final loss in his first year in 2010, finished 3rd in 2011 and then won back to back flags in 2012 and 2013 before he moved to Essendon.

Oh FFS!
 
Bolton would be a massive punt.

In other sports there have been some great coaches who have taken a similar route to a top coaching job. The coach of the Miami Heat is one.

BUT is the AFL and more importantly Crows supporters ready for such a punt?

bloody oaf... what ave we got to lose... we can always go back to mediocrity!
 
Gee some impatient pricks round here. It will be highly unlikely there will be an announcement this week.

The club has stated its searching for the best candidate. Nothing has changed.
