I couldn't listen to Kelli Underwood - as knowledgeable as she is she just doesn't have the voice for it

I wonder if SJW's will be totally happy with a female coach for their club - I bet deep down they would not like it
But think about the ridicule on the Bay.If they were good at their job, who would care?

The problem here is you're projecting your own insecurities and issues onto other people. Not everyone has trouble seeing women in a position of power over men. Some fellows are secure enough in their own masculinity that they don't perceive women being involved in a male-driven industry as some hideous threat.
So you would 100% support a female head coach of your team
If she was a good coach, yes. I don't understand why anyone wouldn't?
Can you tell us how this process would occur of appointing a female head coach and are any clubs close to even trying it
Why hasn't it happened in Europe or America with top teams?
If a woman was a good coach, are you saying you wouldn't want her coaching your team regardless? If so, why?
What a stupid and generalised statement. Please back up this with some evidenceThere are certain things men and women are more natural. One of these areas is motivation and the ability to be strategical and ruthless and men are simply suited to this. Men's brains think in a way that suits high level competition
Its like going to war...there is no way I would want to fight under a female leader in serious combat situation

I'm interested in seeing it

Q: "So mate, how do you feel about winning the Grand Final?"
A: "It's good, but I feel it is tainted because the coach is a woman."
Well we just fundamentally disagree then. I'm sorry if you've lived a live where you've never been motivated or inspired by your mother, sister, gran, wife, girlfriend or a female co-worker, friend or manager. It seems a very limited perspective.
You now bring in irrelevant comments to cloud the issue. Stay on topic as there are many women who are inspirational
There are some areas that women cannot bridge the gap.
Do you want to see no genders in tennis and let only the best person win
So you are not worried whether or not your club's head coach is a woman You just don't think it will happen?Do you believe a female will one day play men's AFL
Can you tell us when this will happen
Irrelevant comment because if it happens the fans will be happy but it will never happen unless females are good enough to play AFL men's footy
So where's your evidence to back it up with?It's science dopey....men's bodies and minds think differently
Do you wear a dress?
If I were to stay on-topic I'd be talking about female commentators - you were the one that introduced coaching and politics into the thread. And you were the one who said men are more naturally motivational than women, which I think is untrue. As for irrelevant comments: no, women should not compete in physical sports against men because there is a physical imbalance. They should and could, however, coach and commentate if they are talented enough to do so because there is no mental element that men have over women in that respect, in my opinion.
So you are not worried whether or not your club's head coach is a woman You just don't think it will happen?
