I'm just relating what happened. It is what it is.
Yeah. So still not his fault,unless you are saying Williams wasn't in charge.
That's nothing compared to his Walsh accusations on the Port board.
This person really is filth.

Oh, now I am truly concerned for you.I thought you'd heard the story as to why?
The answer is that other teams would go full on defensive when it looked like they were getting flogged. Hawthorn could have easily beaten Sydney and West Coast by 120+ in 2014 and 2015. Unfortunately, Phil Walsh told Mark Williams that he shouldn't do that at half time because 'it's the grand final and it's a spectacle for the game'. It was after that debacle that Walsh and Williams had a falling out and Walsh went to West Coast.
It's why Williams has never been given a head coaching job anywhere and never will, even though he's a premiership coach and quite good at developing players. He let his assistant and his own ego prevail against what was good for the club he supposedly loved.
Yeah. So still not his fault,unless you are saying Williams wasn't in charge.
Then thats even worse.
Isn't it enough for you to be the laughing stock of the Port Board already, or are you trying to emulate that deed on the Adelaide Board??I'm just relating what happened. It is what it is.

Williams hasn't had a head coaching gig because he's a loose cannon that no club wants to trust with the top job.At what point did I say it was his fault? I just said that he told Williams not to go defensive because it was the GF, and Williams listened to him - which is why Williams hasn't got another head coaching job anywhere.
I didn't blame Walsh at all, he was just giving his opinion as an assistant. Williams holds the record because he was too weak and insipid as a head coach to put his side before his ego battle with Phil.
Who's the hot girl in Janus' avatar???
Jesus.AA caller praising Paddy Ryder for being a great role model for indigineous players................um yeah
So 2007 led to Choco not getting another coaching job and yet Port re-signed him in 2009.
More Janus bullshit exposed.
How do you do this?Just did a reverse image search on his avatar
At other clubs obviously. And quite frankly, the board expected Williams to turn down the offer they made to him in 2009 - the issue was that half the board wanted him gone and half didn't want to sack the son of a club legend because they feared supporter backlash. So they put to him a contract that was half his salary, hoping he'd reject it and they would be able to get out of the situation.
But he didn't - once again, because of his ego.
Basically, the issues stemmed from being too soft and not decisive enough on every level.
Or in other words...'meh'.

A lot of Brazilian soccer players return home after not being able to adapt to Europe, if I'm not mistaken. Although it's probably a small minority among the total who make the move.
Over here, it's almost always an excuse to avoid the stigma attached to going for the money.
Janus why did you ignore this one?So Geelong at half time had 24 scoring shots and kicked 11.13. At what stage did Port want to go defensive, in the first 5 mins?

Outstanding if thats actually how it all went down. Walsh rolled the dice with Choco's career .. and Choco agreed to it. He'd already lost, he no longer cared ..I'm just relating what happened. It is what it is.
