Must remember it was our 1 wood and teams did just about everything they could to deny us of our strength through the middle given it seemed our biggest mode of success. They had half forwards pushing up as extra's, rucks hitting the ball long out wide to avoid an in tight contest etc and we still came out on top of contested possessions and clearances the vast majority of the time. He also had Cripps back up and running who our ITK's told us was partly responsible for his return.
Has he retired or thinking about it?
I think he might for a year or two to get some external experience but you know where he's going to end up eventually
I'd love to see Kennedy working with Harry and Charlie. He had an unbelievably big bag of tricks for a key forward. Set plays at stoppages for him to swoop in on. Extraordinary player.
Should always be looking to bring in new coaches and fresh ideas. Successful clubs are always recruiting new coaches and we should be doing the same.
We have the past two Coleman medallists playing for us and we have a goalkicking problem?? Think we'd have better ways of spending our money.
Lack of experience in pressure games, they will learn from it, people do realise we have hardly a player who has played in those finals type pressure games before? The club hasn't been involved in any of them in the past ten years. Those last two games were lost not exclusively due to goalkicking, it was just lack of experience at closing those type of games out.
Assuming Teague was on $400k - $600k a year and half of his wage, payout was paid in this years soft cap...
Joel's partner is apparently finally pregnant after years of trying. I suspect he might take some time off to spend at home before going into coaching.
If 800k is available as Tenacious speculates, that's going to get us 3 solid assistants. I'd shuffle the chairs a little...
