Coaching Staff Senior Coach: John Worsfold - Thank you John

[vast]

Surely the club has to say something soon right?

If he wants to go for family reasons and isnt committed fine but if he is and wants to see out next year at least and they honestly believe he has done a good job then just back him in for the last year of his contract.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

What a pointless article. Results are the reason why Worsfold is under pressure, not because he is an imposter.

Times a million.

What a shithouse article.

 

[Vindicater]

Jungle drums are beating that he will be here next year but with limited tactical decisions.

Rutten to take over in 2021.

 

[Milanista28]

We've gone backwards and we're meant to be ok with that?

12 and 10 105%
12 and 10 106%
12 and 10 95%

When can we ask questions?

 

[Maxabillions]

Yeah I’m not sure of his logic given Kevin Sheedy was from Richmond.

"Only success earns a coach some sort of acceptance by the supporters at a club they didn’t play for."

Sheedy won four premierships.

Do you think we would have seen a #standbywoosha hashtag if he had been in charge during the supplements saga?

Not saying that there aren't issues with his coaching but I think it's true he's under more pressure particularly from past players in the media than he would if he had played for Essendon.

I’m not sure there is acceptance for any coach of any club no matter who they played for if they can’t bring success.

Kevin Bartlett, Francis Bourke, Tony Shaw, Brett Ratten, Michael Voss. Didn’t last much beyond 5 years as coaches of the club they were premiership players and champions of.

 

[JayJ20]

Word going around that Worsfold will be our coach in 2020. You have one year to give it everything John. Don't waste it.

 

[JayJ20]

Not sure what interview he is talking about. I'm guessing Xavier.

 

[eth-dog]

See you Woosha, thanks for your efforts

Xavier Campbell has confirmed woosha to coach next year

 

[quotemokc]

I'm ok with it, either way Caracella and Rutten are going to be in the box too

 

[DapperJong]

He was always going to coach next year.

 

[JayJ20]

Confirmed.

 

[Fin ice Smuggler]

Xavier Campbell has confirmed woosha to coach next year

On channel 7?

 

[Old Campaigner]

He was always going to coach next year.

But at which club?

 

[DapperJong]

But at which club?

Obviously ours. We can’t afford to pay his contract out.

Plus he isn’t the biggest issue at the club anyway.

 

[Burzum]

We were never going to sack him. He'd only leave if he got an offer from Fremantle.

 

[Fin ice Smuggler]

What a roller coaster day? Aussies doing well in cricket, get smashed in cycling race, vfl start poorly, take control before looking likely to get run over til Jok goals, now WOOSH confirmed. God damn it!!!! I was on a high after VFL win

 

[Milanista28]

Hopefully Caracella and fit players make a huge difference

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Let's hope this is our Hardwick 2016 moment. I know Caracella is a start, but we must continue to surround Worsfold with quality.

 

[The Donners]

The fact it took this long to publicly support Woosha’s role (given all the media speculation) tells me one of 2 things, either it was a very close call or Essendon supporters are unimportant to the club.

Personally, I’m glad Woosha will see out the final year of his contract. We do however need to change what we have been doing.

 

[HirdyLannister]

I'm happy he stays, i don't think we have gone backwards.
Imagine if richmond sacked Hardwick early or geelong bomber thompson. this stuff takes time and we are on the right path.

The preseason will answer that, if they make an effort to change things on the training track then we can take it that the message from fans is getting through. I think the fans are more concerned with the performance of the players than the coaches.

 

[Cold Sober]

PRESS STOP. STOP THE BULLSHIT. HE'S COACHING NEXT YEAR. IF AFTER 3 GAMES NO OBVIOUS CHANGE. GOOOONNNNNEEE.
