I do wonder though if Shaw will have the same amount of love and backing as next senior coach, if we lose our next 3 games, which is possible.
Pickers said on SEN last week that he hadn't received an offer but an enquiry .I believe there was a lucrative offer.
Right there.Pickers said on SEN last week that he hadn't received an offer but an enquiry .
That doesn't have to be a formal 'offer'. This is just semantics.Pickers said on SEN last week that he hadn't received an offer but an enquiry .
BloodRet huh? How fondly do you remember 1982?This will be news that North fans pretend not to care about but really are distraught inside.
That is the case for contracted players/coaches BUT Bard told us all for months earlier in the year that he ...'would do the right thing by the club'....ie if the club wanted a change he would accept a settlement and move on.Contracted for next year. If he gets a gig elsewhere, no need to pay him out.
If he doesn't we'll have to negotiate a settlement, which will have to be included in our Football Dept cap for next year.
I have no doubt we expected this.

He was being pressed on whether he had received a formal offer from North.Right there.

What part of ...doing the right thing by the club...are we missing here?
No doubt we were leveraged like I said. Pickers loves negotiation by media. Discussions have been going on for at least a month so hardly a snap decision by Longmire. Interesting that the media were suggesting Longmire was staying at Sydney for at least a week now. Agree re Archers trek around Australia although I know bugger all about what he is looking for.If your source's claim is true that we were very confident it would suggest that Longmire had agreed in principal or had given indication that he would give it strong consideration. If that was the case why did he sign so quick with Swans?
Horse was already in negotiations with the Swans when we enquired and with Pickers grubby hands all over it, we were leveraged. I dont think all the noise surrounding Longmire is a bad thing for us as it is a distraction for Archer's around Australia door knocking tour.
Keep your eyes on the road Rhonda as they say.
Herald sun article in the preview thread I posted.What's that from gr?
No - if he finds another job then he doesn't get paid 'twice' - that's the arrangement in AFL contracts.The right thing by the club would be agreeing to forgo his last year's payment if he finds another job. We contracted him until the end of 2020 so he is entitled to be paid that given he was clearly pushed.
Depends how we play in the supposed loses.
All hard games. If we turn up, crack in and give a good account of ourselves - I think most supporters will be understanding of the tough games they are.
Be soft and capitulate with large loses, that’s a different story.
Of course they are.That article says Longmires kids are in their academy
