    Coach Adam Simpson Megathread est. 2017 - Staying for 2024, Lyon’s Cryin’

    IMO the three questions to guide decision making are: What are the steps along the path the club needs to take to reach its next premiership? Can the club afford the financial hit if they were to sack Simmo? If they sacked him, how does the resulting penalty affect the steps stated in 1...

    Autopsy RND 15: "Another 100+ Loss" Negatives v Sydney

    Acceptance. Anger started a couple of years ago and now it's acceptance. Nothing is going to change with the current board in charge.

    The issues go deeper than that! Question 7: What is the focus of the football club, the board? Winning premierships or making lots of money? It's not immediately obvious what the overall plan/pathway is to win our next premiership. What are the milestones along the way? What is the mix of...

    One guy, or a whole handful of guys, sure. But the whole team turning up like it did for the last 3 years. Sure buddy, I know what's more likely.

    It doesn't reflect poorly on him, but the coaching staff as a whole.

    It could work! Thinking a bit outside the square but he might be able to have a role at the club (perhaps not as head coach) around helping our team/club build an identity around toughness and grit - something akin to what the Swans have. Something the players can buy into together and play as a...

    I think our needs are more immediate than that long term question. We're rebuilding and the club KPIs for him (or any coach sitting in his spot) should be consistent with that, assessing the coach's performance year by year. Or every two years. If he can't or won't hit those KPIs, then him and...

    Don't need to overthink it. A lot can happen in six years, Simmo might not even want to coach then. Think it's more important to figure out where we want to get to, what steps we'll need to take on the way, and assess our coaching need accordingly. One step at a time!

    Does it really need to be that hard to measure his performance, though? Now that we're mostly all on the same page with regards to the need to rebuild, where most of us differ is timeframe until we can challenge again. So, what performance measures/KPI do we need to impose on a coach while the...

    Can't say I miss how they focus on one little detail that isn't factually correct, and use that one nitpicky thing to ignore the key points of the post (or is that to distract everyone else from the key points?)

    Agreed. Too much baggage with the current coach/football department/current players. It's akin to a toxic workplace - both management and existing staff need to be cleaned out (obviously you'll need to keep the players who model the behaviours that you want the team to carry forward) or else the...

    Preview 2022 AFL Season West Coast Eagles Preview, Fixtures and how the club can contend in 2022 despite injury woes. More from Dylan82 on the second page.

    Thanks for your time and analysis - very interesting drawing together the issues with the current team/game plan/(coaching staff?), and accompanying data, into one cohesive picture. It's very informative and hopefully this can be used to improve the team going forward.

    I've changed my position on this. We should do the same, and either (a) get away with it like the other teams, or (b) if the AFL doesn't like it, they'll make a ruling on it and stop it in its tracks. Shouldn't be too hard to train into the players try it on occasionally.
