Mega Thread The hunt for a new senior coach

[Eddie Dingle]

Yeah, this being Adelaide we'd have heard something about it by now.


I wonder if Bickley's still waiting by the phone for that call....

If it wasn't so ****ing tragic and I didn't think it would kill our club I would laugh if Bickley was appointed.

 

[Doctor Feel]

I reckon we will wait out of courtesy for both Leon and the hawks.

Agree. If he's agreed and signed a week isn't going to change anything. He's probably briefed on any immediate issues needing his input and this way he still has a week to piss into the ear of any uncontracted hawks.

Somehow I doubt we would get the same courtesy if the situations were reversed.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

That's fair enough but there seems to have been a lot said in the media *cough*Rucci*cough* about us having to tip-toe around anti-poaching rules that apparently do not exist.

Also if he has agreed terms then his commitment is now to Port Adelaide.

 

[Rexie J]

Anyone think Bassett is still a chance for a role?

Have never thought Bassett was worth any sort of consideration and after watching the Norwood/Westies shambles he should never be considered a (potential) AFL (assistant) coach.

Alastair Clarkson anyone?

OK........I'll bite..................why

Where was Clarkson an assistant coach prior to winning a senior coach job?
Which club appointed him senior coach?
When did they do it?
What is your favourite colour?

 

[missionpossible]

Roy Laird resigned

 

[Trewth]

Well I know I'm looking forward to a "Killa" season next year

(Yes I know bad shoop is bad, what'r ya gonna do?)

 

[powermacs]

Roy Laird resigned

Now for Bassett and our dream is complete.

Yep..........tick to each but is it 'beyond reasonable doubt' he would/might consider it?

More than happy to have him on board.

You do know that now you have pointed out his mistake he will be back pedalling at such a furious rate that he will forget to acknowledge his initial error.

And anoint Cameron/Eade/Ratten/Bickley/McGuire or whoever gets the job because he will be right.

No I meant Hawthorn appointed one of our assistant coaches and named him before the 2004 grand final so he stood aside leaving us short on the big day.

I'm not suggesting we get Clarko.

I really need to be clearer.

He will just attack us for not having the gumption to get the obvious choice barrow he has been pushing - Rodney Eade.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Strongly doubt it. Would love him or Ayres as defensive coach though.

When did you swing around to Ayres gp?

Another week and most of us will be n meltdown, I have worn the refresh button out on safari already, I can't take this much longer

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Leon Cameron PAFC coach.

Damn that excites me.

I just can't get excited by this. More zone footy crap coming our way

 

[BornPort]

I am constantly checking this thread. I get excited when I see it bolded, even though I know in my head it's probably another Terry Wallace joke.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Time to open up a nickname sub committee thread for Cameron?

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Some HawksTV footage of Cameron working with Michael Osborne (free agent )

Terry Wallace was no joke, he was at the airport and prince of Wales, I just lied about rucci being there

Fair 'nuff..........now I understand............I'll just go back to my warm milk and knee rug................and the Brownlow red carpet ladies.

A tad more seriously, I think the PAFC should implement a 2012 version of the Bob McLean style management in certain situations. But it's hard being ruthless when you are on the bottom of the pack.

Also stress, I believe KT is doing an outstanding job in rebuilding the club from the ground up.

What is your favourite colour?

Yellow. No wait, TEAL!

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
