Wanted to give this a bit of breathing room as to not get lost in the other discussion of coaches going on. I will merge it with the 'next coach' thread later.

David Rath interests me. Has very recent connections to a club that has a coach in limbo...please make it happen.

St Kilda Football Club President Andrew Bassat has announced the members of a coaching selection sub-committee, which was finalised at meeting of the club’s board last night.

Chaired by the President, the sub-committee will oversee the recruitment process which will begin immediately.

The committee includes Saints Football Director Dean Anderson, CEO Matt Finnis and General Manager of Football Simon Lethlean, along with the AFL’s Head of Coaching David Rath.

Can you tell us who or is it a secret.

Is Rath a direct AFL appointment?

Or did we approach him to consult?

I'm quite happy about it either way, this a pivotal appointment and St Kilda have an inclination to stuffing things up unfortunately...

I'd suggest he was approached as opposed to positioned with us, given he governs the L4 coaching program which was the program designed in 2015 to identify senior coaches of which Bolton, Dew, Goodwin were initial accredited coaches.

I would hope Scott is not a candidate. Committee looks compromised or at least is easily perceived as being compromised if I’m being completely honest.


One out of 4 are mates from what we gather. I reckon you have to trust the process. If he gets it he will deserve it IMO.
 
Have you ever been involved in any high level appointments? I’m going early that Scott isn’t applying.


Why? Because the footy manager is involved? I would hope so and it depends what high level appointments are. I picked the next king. Have you? This is a good game. We just lie to each other to prove we know something.

You’ve actually lost me plugger. My opinion is Scott isn’t applying, NFI why you are turning this into an argument. Have a good night.

So explain why? That's all I want. Ive given a reason I think why not. I gather because you think leathlean is involved he isn't applying. I then said i would hope the footy manager is on the committee whoever applies. Whats wrong with me wanting to know why you think he isn't. Argument? Really. No wonder the young are so soft these days.

You answered your own question. Of course I think there’s a conflict of interest with Lethlean on the committee but only if Scott applies. The fact that SL is on the committee suggests to me that Scott isn’t applying & equally the fact Roo is excusing himself suggests to me RTB is in play. Just my opinion.

That's fine but surely you expected the footy manager to be on it whoever applies. I certainly did. I would be very disappointed if it effected the outcome as there is another 3 on it.

imagine having someone like Ross Lyon reporting to a CEO and by extension a board that was so easily fooled by Richo. it'd be like a hot knife moving through butter. the resistance of a wet lettuce leaf.

Integrity of process trumps everything else. We are not going to agree on this, I’m not trying to dismiss you, I just can’t be arsed going back & forth. I do value your opinion.

You just continue to knock everything. At least you don't have to worry who coaches next year as you aren't a supporter.
