Roast Coaching discussion thread

[PerfectFooty]

That article states that Essendon have denied that their decision is made. I wouldn't be rejoicing just yet

I'd assume it's made and they are denying because it's stealing their thunder. Remember when an article came out Roos had signed with us but the MFC denied it and then announced it the next day. Whoosha will be announced after grand final week i imagine

It's worth noting that Goodwin finished 3rd in the AFLCA Assistant Coach of the Year award.

Ahead of Bolton, Dew, etc.

How the **** do you measure that?

Good question. Who on earth could give an educated non-biased vote on such an award.

I think you award everyone equal points of mid range then award credits and deficits. A Melbourne assistant gets a small deficit for an advantage like Hogan, and credits for problems like Matt Jones and Bail. Plus other factors like Bolton gets credits for shortness but Goodwin gets recognition for his paralysingly weird voice.

No. I have no idea. Who came in ahead of anything anywhere anytime goody? And, come to think of it, would I even recognise their names?

It's voted by players and fellow coaches - although they only vote from each club,.

Woosha to Essendon so McCartney stays!

Maybe - surely they are appointing a number of people for the coaching panel? i.e. maybe assistants too? Craig just decamped off to Carlton so McCartney could feasibly still take up a spot at EFC

Assistants under contract can't be poached unless it is for a senior role - the Dons will have to pay us out if they do.

Is that right? Good news then. I think McCartney is important to us.

Yup. Was why we couldn't get Dew.

True, but Macca is listed as Brendan McCartney - Development and Strategy Coach - could a senior assistant role at EFC be considered a promotion and therefore able to be poached?

Why would Woosha need a senior assistant?

Designated fall guy in the event of further scandal? Dunno really but they seem to have wads of folding and little sense

What does the SS bit stand for?

What does the SS bit stand for?

MFC Supporter Syndrome. That feeling of whenever something good happens at the Dees it will inevitably be taken away, probably in the most painful way possible.

I've made a bargain with the Gods that I will stop (so long as Jesse signs a nice long contract)

 

[Topkent]

Woosha will take Guy Mckenna if he wants a senior assistant, Premiership team mate who was doing a pretty good job at GC

Bloody love Daniel Cross

 

[Tulip]

heck yes, role was made for him after Miller left.

 

[Topkent]

Might be the only runner in history to go back with the flight to mark a ball

Whoohoo

No one better - was worried he would take his skills back to the kennels. Good news. On the basis of that I'm going to re watch the GWS game - one of three wins I have saved from 2015 (note: fox footy replaying Rd 1 2015 at 11:30 PM Sunday night)

Not surprised Cross got other offers, happy he chose to stay with us.

You may not be playing Crossy but you're still very much helping us get to where we want to be. Thanks for staying with us
