We would have to do a lot of ass kissing to get Williams after we burnt him in the Worsfold fake process.

That's why I said we should go for Shotgun. They said we need a Mark Williams, they didn't specify which Mark Williams.

 

[Old Campaigner]

"It says the 'No Mark Williamses Club', we're allowed to have one"

 

[faible]

A stoppages coach is a huge hole that we haven't had filled for a little while and we often get embarrassed in there.

1 x Josh P Kennedy or David Mundy please.

 

[citizen-erased]

Anyone wanna take a punt on what a Clarkson coaching panel looks like

Cameron (Senior Asst)
Viney (Development)

Seem like two older heads he'd bring with him
Damian Carroll?

Wasn't that Tapping ? We have a stoppages guy as a forward coach

Tapping is our forwards coach. He was midfield coach at Brisbane.

Viney would be in a Neil balme type role

Tapping is our forwards coach. He was midfield coach at Brisbane.

That's what I mean, Tapping was/is a midfield coach.
I assumed when we signed him that he would be our midfield/stoppage coach.

But we put Tapping forward which I don't understand.

And we have his running the backline when he’s always been a forwards coach

Not if he is on team Clarkson. No way the coach appoints his boss.
The two I have hear whispers about for assistants are Viney and Roughy.
Small whisper but totally unconfirmed is Bolton as the senior assistant.
