Peter Sumich could be a chance

Didn't he not apply for our senior coach position because he didn't want to leave WA where his kids are/were at school? Not sure he'd come to be an assistant.

Sumich has already said he is gong back to the Eagles

 

[Dav1d]

Can we swipe Leigh Tudor?
Mostly just to really s**t Norf to tears.

 

[murphy2bedabest]

I would be looking guys like Ratten, Ayers, Collins and Aker also looking at getting Carey down there to work with Boyd.

 

[Dale4captain]

Every time a role comes up he explicitly rules himself out at the outset. It isnt a problem with him, but rather an open unwillingness to apply for the role.

There have been several instances where he would have been a sure thing. His approach has been one of trying to have a longer apprenticeship to avoid some of the challenges faced by many coaches.

He's got the Swans gig when Horse retires. He can afford to be selective when coaching gigs around the country open up.

Why Aker? Guys an untrustworthy, self-centred flog who has never respected peoples privacy.

And absolutely HATES the Bulldogs and let's everyone know it.

Well people here are saying that we should be looking outside the club and get away from that boys club.

Aker has coached his own team for a few years now, he has done the coaching course and has been very successful in his footy career. I do think he does have a very high footy IQ and if we think about some of the areas we are lacking kicking inside F50, kicking for goal and general skills. These are some of Akers strengths.

Could do a lot worst in a coach than Aker, but it might not be a position that he may not want.

 

[maddog37]

Aker is poison to a team.

 

[VitalDread]

Mark Williams has been let go by Tiges. Worth a look?

 

[geoffjennings79]

Just posted this in the media thread, just as relevant here:

Caro describes Bevo (and Lyon) as "despotic"... She should look up the meaning before she types words that sound good.

Own team? Yeah, North Albury in the O&M. Hardly a big deal. Fev coached his own team too.....

 

[Braybrook Son]

Sumich has already said he is gong back to the Eagles

After missing out on the Eagles head coaching job to Adam Simpson a couple of years ago, he basically told the Eagles to stick the club up their arse. So I don't know if this is correct

 

[Dogs Rule]

Highly doubt Aker would be Bev's cup of tea.

But, if we want the team to be a bunch of self-absorbed, egotistical flogs prepared to throw the occasional grenade into the team harmony, then yeah, let's get Aker.

Agreed. I reckon getting Carey for Boyd would be a massive investment and would work out pretty well

He was over the line as Roos' successor at Melbourne until Sydney said they wouldn't let him leave 1 assistant role to take on another assistant role.

So I see folks are keen on bringing Westy and Carey to the kennel? With Aker back to tell tales.

That could end well.

Said it preseason.If you invest so much you must give the investment specialized attention.

 

[Cudi]

And got suspended by the league as well didn't he??

Couldn't think of a less suitable guy for a coaching job with us than Aker.

*shakes head sadly*

 

[cecil]

West is no hope.... Damn average coaching CV

 

[spider1004]

Why do we need to replace him? The position seems redundant to me

 

[Tommycash]

I must admit I haven't liked the look of the exit of Stevenson and Monty.

Senior assistant coach is redundant? ...okay...
