Bluemour Melting Pot XXXII - Reaching fever pitch! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[mrkyuss]

Yea, they never said "only" an experienced coach.

Sayers expressed his preference for one

Backed himself into a corner too. With fear of training wheels anti supporter sentiment. Voss did a Steve Bradbury…

Not really.

By forming a coaching panel with people like Diesel and Parkin if they elected to not go with an experienced candidate it doesn't contradict anything.
If anything it shows he has the maturity to listen to others if they deemed it the right choice.

Don't let your personal preference get in the way of reality though.

B70 any inside word why we made it clear that we were only looking for an experienced coach yet backed ourselves in a corner and only ended up interviewing one (who is no good). This driven by Diesel and Parko?

You are misreading into the media misquoting Sayers. Listen to the presser again.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Kingsley looks jacked.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

You are a fellow Leeds fan too. Awesome.

Still think Voss will be coach, but if it's Ross Lyon, I would be surprised and delighted.

Rather Voss. Everyday.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Sayers had his chances at the start to make the captain call on Ross. It would have been bold and decisive!

Now he has other people working through a process, he has to back this process in now

All will be forgiven soon, if Ross enters the process though

 

[BlueTongue]

Who would you rather keep out of Samo and Fisher?

TBH I think SPS has more 'Potential' - but the unknown is his effort - is he faltering due to being played out of position, or is it all too hard for him to make an effort. He has flashes of brilliance, but unfortunately I think Fish has hit his ceiling.

 

[bluerooster]

For him to nominate WC means someone at WC sees an opportunity.

SPS is a 360 degrees player. More suited in traffic and stoppages, not half back. Rarely turns the ball over.

Some people here are bagging his inconsistency. But they also must explain why other high draft picks in Dow, O'Brien, Setterfied, Kennedy(until recently when played in correct position) have been in the same boat. We could also throw in Cunningham.

He decided to go. Not us letting him go.

No-one is saying they're champions, out of those Ke

Personally Id be pushing Fisher to nominate for a trade way before LOB

Worst post I've seen, and there have been some bad ones. LOB, hadn't got it,he has been played in his preferred position but just isn't up to it.

Oh woah poor SPS... got played basically for 4 years straight without question or being dropped... should’ve had stints in the magoos earlier but the coaching staff kept showing him the faith and putting him in the ones. He wants to go, great.. he don’t want to be here the he can go and enjoy the ageing Eagles where the whole WA will be scrutinising his lack of aggression and dinky kicks a lot more than we have.

 

[Funk]

Well people wouldn’t wanna hear what Damien Barrett has said this morning, sounds like a blues fan in denial ...

Your first mistake was listening to that clown - and it went downhill from there

Sayers wants finals next year and said they needed an experienced coach for that, after Teague was sacked. As Tom Morris said on On The Couch, Voss was recommended by the selection committee due to being experienced despite Kingsley interviewing extremely well. First timers were interviewed but were never getting recommended. Voss was the last remaining experienced coach available so it was essentially a Bradbury.

Goes to Cook, who has the final decision, and will speak to both Kinsgley and Voss in the coming days.

 

[Funk]

And what exactly does our bifocal, purple friend have to say for himself today?

Actually Barrett does look rather like a WIGGLE............

Harsh but fair.

You can't deny we've stuff up the last 2 years of development tho.

Will all be in the past in a few weeks time.

 

[katmanblue]

SPS is not close to Williams as a footballer.

More reliable. Hardly missed hardly any games to suspension or injury.

[Beast__Mode]

I would have to question the quality of the process if a candidate such as Yze isn’t at least spoken to.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

Uh-huh.

You draft a player as a midfielder, after they show midfielder traits. You proceed to play him in the back pocket for 2-3 seasons. Said player asks to train with the mids, and trains with the mids for the majority to the entirety of each preseason; said player's attitude to training and/or the club isn't and hasn't been questioned. He's played ones since he came to the club. He's done what he's been told.

At what point do you cease blaming the players for the pattern of pushing young and promising mids to the flanks and the pockets for their own poor development and look at the ******* sitting in the coach's chair?

I dont disagree with you there are multiple factors. Coaching decisions, player development, self assessment and personal improvement - internal and individual skill development. Outside factors, bad advice etc

 

[Garters]

Woah, just saw that Cam Bruce is heading to QLD. So, right now, our only "coaches" left from the 2021 season are Luke Power and Daniel O'Keefe?
We have effectively stripped out: Barker, Teague, Stanton, Amos and now Bruce. Noting that at the start of the 2021 season those that have departed were the entire match day coaching team. Luke Power was strictly development and O'Keefe the VFL coach. So, the review and new board have effectively said, the entire match day coaching panel for 2021 was, lets just say, not very good. Sigh...

2022 is going to be very interesting indeed. Whoever gets the main gig, is starting from a loooong way back. We have the trade period and national draft coming up and the new guys may be asking for directions in the corridors of Ikon Park.

Lets be positive, this is just about as clean a slate as it gets. I really think we need to get the team together pronto!

All pretty damn exciting! Love a good clean out. Pretty happy TBH. Newbies in the hot seat, some draft picks, a trade or two. A hot unlocked summer, beers over Chrissy, big pre season, irrational optimism red lines and then rnd 1.....?. TBC!

 

[BlueTongue]

So why not wait?. Like Arrow, I’d love to change his mind. He can be salvaged.

Maybe it was a directive of the new incoming coach...?

 

[Jimthegreat]

Rather Voss. Everyday.

One was a success, the other a failure as a coach. You went for the failure.

 

[BrisbaneCFC]

According to 7 News Cook is talking to both Voss and Kingsley in the next couple of days.

Im sure one of the ITK's said he'd been told thanks but no thanks earlier this afternoon.

 

[zeggie]

One was a success, the other a failure as a coach. You went for the failure.

I'd prefer Ross. Still worried we'd get a few years and he'd leave us even worse off. Happened twice before. Genuine concern of the panel (and Cook) right now I think. Cook huge on building culture.

 

[TwiggleyFanClub]

SPS won’t survive under the diesel expectations. He’s conditional but I did love him nonetheless.

I loved him for maybe 1/2 a dozen games. The rest of the time he sh!t me to tears. Such a waste of talent.

 

[Accidental genius]

Cook will be seeking your input soon. Please wait by the phone until he calls.

Wishful thinking.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Luke Edwards for SPS....
