Doesn't make sense to me.
Campo has already got them to the finals, so why take it off him to give to Woosha for 2 seasons, then give it back to him.
That's a step backwards to me.

Yeah I suppose
Shhhh. Let them keep thinking Adelaide is like Sierra Leone. Whatever it takes to stop these idiots from moving over here.
Seriously though I like cheap real estate, clean air and no traffic.

How cheap are we talking?

I paid $100k, next to a train line, and 200kms from CBD. Lol
Most of the talk with Campo not applying for the head coaching job has been due to his business and family commitments preventing him from having the time to take the role. Maybe that'll change in a couple of years? Anyway, unless Campo can prove that he can run his own ship, rather than steering the one that Walsh built I'm not sure if he's the man for the job or not. It's a massive thing for him to have stepped up like his has, but that shouldn't automatically mean he's handed the job from here on.
Shame about a lack of jobs and the highest unemployment in the land.

Woosha ain't staying in Adelaide beyond this season. His wife hates Adelaide and refuses to live there, hence why she has stayed in Perth since he went there a few months ago. She is happy to relocate to Melbourne though, having liked the city during their 2 yrs here when Woosh was at Carlton.
Of course her staying in Perth would have nothing to do with relocating and disturbing a family from one city to another for a relatively short period of time.
Woosha's initial commitment to Adelaide was to help them 'finish the season' and then move on. It was only when he got there that his batteries got recharged and now a return to coaching is on the cards.

Glen Jackovich on 6PR Sports Today announced that Worsfold is set to be appointed Essendon coach with former teammate Guy McKenna his assistant.

Jackovich must be following me.
Will he be a good fit for EFC?

To be perfectly honest I don't know.
I am not sure Woosha is a 'developer' of players and if I look at your list from afar (I just watch the game - I don't study it) I think your lists is a little shallow and in need of development.
When he first arrived Woosha took a list that was playing 'without passion' and turned them into a passionate side. At the end of Woosha's time the passion seemed to disappear, almost as if the players were not getting the Woosha message. Mind you it appeared as if Woosha lost the passion too - rumours of his private life, if true, may have been a contributing factor. Certainly it did appear as if the 'fire in the belly' was missing from everyone - players and Woosha alike.
With his record & reputation he will provide the club with some bounce and a surge. Whether or not it is dead cat bounce, or something else, only time will tell.
Unlike Simmo I don't think Woosha is a great media performer - I suspect there would be a need to a fair bit of media work involved in coaching Essendon.
I only hope your club uses a good process to make a realistic selection.

The club has interviewed several candidates and ruled out a couple already. I think this time we are atleast doing a bit of homeworkNice "process" Essendon. That governance thing is really working out.

He will bring along his former teammate McKenna as his assistant according to rumours.

Worsfold will not coach Adelaide and has declined the offer. The Dons look more and more likely.
The bf crew know better mate
