No offence but i think you'll find Arryn is a good deal more erudite and knowledgeable about the game than hedge. This is a laughable postHi Arryn
You think?I'm guessing people don't know what orange font means.
I should probably have written (ORANGE FONT) instead.You think?
We actually have a decent teaching group in our coaches. David Hale is a teacher, Zane Littlejohn in a teacher, as is Rob McCartney. Plus the already mentioned Andy Collins.Two clicks and you will find Siposs has spent the past 6 years studying teaching, whilst also playing AFL, college football and NFL.
2016 - 2020 Bachelor of Teaching and Exercise Science with ACU crossing over to a Bachelor of Education from Auburn University between 2018 - 2022 whilst punting at college and then professionally.
That level of tertiary education is a huge standout compared to most AFL coaches, many of whom never studied beyond finishing high school, and then transitioned to coaching purely on the basis of the football CV and doing the level 1 course (which can be done in a couple of days). As a bonus, it's in teaching.
How many other AFL coaches have 2 tertiary degrees in teaching / education? Answer: probably none, but maybe one or two at most
Not only has Arryn spent years in the US college / professional football system, he has contemporary qualifications in education, teaching and exercise science. This always requires practical experience as a classroom teacher in order to get the qualifications.
I think it's a very shrewd move and he will be able to assist our "non-teaching" coaches, which is basically everyone except Collins, in refining their method of delivery of message and educating what we all agree is a very young list in need of clear messaging and communication.
