Toast All things Paul Roos + Coaching: McCartney joins coaches

[Dark Avenger]

Every coach ever appointed by anyone is supposedly a great choice but there is no way of knowing until they actually take the reins. Some great players have made dud coaches & some less regarded players have made great coaches.

Agree. Being a respected player does help though - means the players might pay a bit more attention to the guy. I think Goodwin is a good candidate though - not an out and out gun with his head up his arse like Buckley or Hird, but a top quality player who can hopefully translate that into being a top quality coach.

And yet Collingwood supporters don't seem to pleased with Buckley a legend of their club. As for a lesser known player but an absolute gun coach, just take a look at Alistair Clarkson.

Agree with this 100%. I remember when the Tigers got Wallace, Dogs got Eade and Hawks got Clarkson. Hawthorn were absolutely ridiculed at the time for 'missing out' on Wallace. At a minimum unless they have coached elsewhere like Roos or Ratten how the hell could we have an opinion outside of gut feel. It's a decision that, dare I say it, we have to trust the club with.

Was just to say none of the other coaches in the league like hird. Well that's what I took out of it

I don't care what he does in his time as long as he is successful with us.

Maybe if we are lucky we will get a new Dee TV segment 'Simons Good Wins' where he tells us stories about the days of betting big and winning big, and hopefully he will chuck in a tip or two

Just came here to post a pretty similar pun. You get the feeling our club looked at his resume and were like 'Good-win? It's right there in his name! Promote that man!'

I do feel sorry for Paul Badloss though

Haha how could we possibly not win with a name like that.

At least we are guaranteed at least one 'good win' each season.

This post is disgusting.





Have a like.

Goodwin has apparently presented to the Board... if that's true I'd assume he'll be announced next week, the board surely only acts as a rubber stamp for Roosy and PJ.

With our resent success rate at board level I'd prefer they stayed out of it...

Completely different board now, I just hope it was an Excel table rather than a Powerpoint presentation this time.

 

[CWaffles]

So is this going to happen today?

Doubt it. You'd think we would have heard rumblings about it by now

Seems a little soon given that Roos on Friday said something about the search "stepping up". It would look awfully rushed if we came back 3 days later and said "search over!"

I think its a little further down the line than 'stepping up'.

I cant remember who wrote the article, but it was mentioned last week that Goodwin was 'one good interview away' from getting the Melbourne gig.

If that interview was referring to a board presentation, then I reckon we'll hear someone very soon.

 

[schmuttt]

If Goodwin has gotten the job, you'd imagine we'll hear about it this week. If not, maybe the interview wasn't successful.

 

[youngbear]

Assuming Goodwin's the man, it may wait until next week with the court decision of EFC v ASADA coming out on Friday.

Because Goodwin was/is a part of it (not that I think he's in the gun) the Dees may wait until the dust settles.

Knowing Melbourne we'll sign him for 5 years on Thursday and on Friday it comes out that he was the mastermind of the whole drugs program. And is banned for 5 years.
