Bring on the 3 Bs. Burns, Balme, Bassett. Make it happen.
Pies also developed alot of their core youngsters over that 3-4 years even though they missed the finals the work was done to see them take a sharp turn toward success in the W - L column .Wasn’t that early in Bucks’ tenure? There were a few issues with the whole club during those early days of Buckley which weren’t in the control of an assistant coach.
So he was there at the same time as Ben Hart....?Pies also developed alot of their core youngsters over that 3-4 years even though they missed the finals the work was done to see them take a sharp turn toward success in the W - L column .
Point being it didn't just happen overnight so he deserves some credit for setting the table .
Have always rated Scott very highly as a player , coach and most definitely a man .
He is a very good get and will serve us well .
3 years overlapping ... are you asking a question or trying to make a lame point by lumping them into the same pile ?So he was there at the same time as Ben Hart....?
More a question - you mentioned Burns should get some credit fornthe Pies development after he left...does Hart get similar?3 years overlapping ... are you asking a question or trying to make a lame point by lumping them into the same pile ?
Fair call , if he deserves it then sure ... i have only heard good things from Burns time at the Pies and also from a few at WCE .More a question - you mentioned Burns should get some credit fornthe Pies development after he left...does Hart get similar?
Applied for the top job twice, been passed over twice, now taking on the assistant role. He must REALLY want to be part of this clubVery impressed that Nicks would take him on, knowing he’d applied for the top job TWICE.
I think the precursor to all this has Adam Kelly's fingerprints all over it personally, very impressive individual.Be funny if Roo is actually behind all this and we're all fantasising that Nicks suddenly took control of the club.
Roo's original appointments were good (Walsh, Teague). At some point he was infected by a brain parasite of bird like proportions. Maybe now that he's been deloused, he's regained his clarity of mind.Be funny if Roo is actually behind all this and we're all fantasising that Nicks suddenly took control of the club.
Kelly said a few weeks back that it was up to him and Nicks to build the new footy department.Be funny if Roo is actually behind all this and we're all fantasising that Nicks suddenly took control of the club.
I'm not too sure TBH, I thought he had just taken a step back after Covid hit and didn't travel with the team to the hub.This is twice someone has said this... I thought he’d already been let go from Richmond In the COVID purge?
Didn’t it come from Caro?This is twice someone has said this... I thought he’d already been let go from Richmond In the COVID purge?
Doubt its Nicks. In my experience it's common for the higher ups to make the calls but it's left to the team leader to break the news. He's probably lucky he's on a 3 year deal in all honestly.Roo's original appointments were good (Walsh, Teague). At some point he was infected by a brain parasite of bird like proportions.

Occam's razor says it's Nicks though.
I'd imagine Kelly and Nicks are working together tbh.Doubt its Nicks. In my experience it's common for the higher ups to make the calls but it's left to the team leader to break the news. He's probably lucky he's on a 3 year deal in all honestly.
I think the Kelly theory is more likely.
Walsh had a massive say in getting Teague and had requested him as part of his coaching panel. From memory they worked together at west coast and Teague jumped at the opportunity to work with Walsh again. Similarly Nicks would have a major contribution and say in who he’d want as an assistant. It’s up to Kelly to see what he can accomodate and get done.Doubt its Nicks. In my experience it's common for the higher ups to make the calls but it's left to the team leader to break the news. He's probably lucky he's on a 3 year deal in all honestly.
I think the Kelly theory is more likely.
Kelly might be looking at his watch. In seriousness though, I suspect there was some Roo input. Not sure Kelly or Nicks know Burns well enough to appoint him so soon? Whereas one who has interviewed him in depth previously and who is also known to make the calls...I'd imagine Kelly and Nicks are working together tbh.
I think even if Nicks wasn't on a 3 year deal, there's no way Adelaide sacks him after one, covid interrupted season. He'd get a minimum of 2 years in normal circumstances.
Not saying Roo didn't have input but it's likely they had talks with Burns months ago. Kelly mentioned changes to the footy dept. a while back in a couple of different pressers.Kelly might be looking at his watch. In seriousness though, I suspect there was some Roo input.
