Is that usual for the back line coach to only be part time?

Well since Dawson has left weve needed someone to spud it up in the backline!
Oh look a backhanded insult edited into the hawks thread title by a mod.

Even better news is that there are many photos we can post while dwindling away time until the draft.
Spud deserves some respect in this thread.....WHERE ARE HIS PICS? I will kick it off.

Frawley in Saints return after rejecting Hawthorn role
Jennifer Phelan November 17, 2014 7:51 AM
FORMER St Kilda captain Danny Frawley will be announced as the Saints' new part-time backline coach on Monday, after a last-minute change of mind over taking a similar role at Hawthorn.
The Hawks announced just last Friday that Frawley had been appointed as a specialist backline and key position coach, supporting Adem Yze.
Frawley, 51, was set to have the opportunity to work with his nephew James at Hawthorn.
But the former AFL Coaches’ Association boss has decided to return to the club where he played 240 games between 1984 and 1995, to fill a role that is understood to be greater in scope than the one offered by the Hawks.
Frawley was Richmond’s senior coach from 2000 until his sacking in 2004 and also has experience as an assistant at Collingwood and Hawthorn.
The Saints will announce Frawley’s appointment at a press conference at 10am in Seaford on Monday.
They are yet to appoint a new football manager after the resignation of head of football Chris Pelchen, and could decide to combine the duties of the vacant role with those Luke Beveridge would have filled as director of coaching.
Beveridge was appointed the Western Bulldogs' coach last week and went with the Saints' blessing, despite having not officially started at Seaford after accepting the director of coaching role mid-year.

Great news to have a fav son back
.
I had initial doubts just because what you could actually do as a backman when Danny played has changed so much.
I mean S.O.S is the fullback of the century but the way SOS played , chopping arms and holding on . He would give away 20 free kicks a game nowdays
But i guess Spud had a long run as an assis coach & then as a Senior coach up to 2004 so he will be well versed on the modern game.
For those here too young to have watched Spud play and have only seen or heard him being silly on radio/telly. Dont worry, he was a seriously great fullback. And a tuff loyal leader.
I think its good for new recruits to be around past champions to help them soak up history of a club.
Good move Saints
EDIT... i didnt realise that spud coached again after Richmond in 04. His 07/08 work at Hawthorn gives him even more cred

Bunch of winners on that Hawks thread...
I actually didnt realize Spud was at the Hawks in 2007/08.
For them to want him back when they are at the height of their powers goes to show how highly rated he is i guess.
I think im even more happy with him getting the job now
