News Coaching Thread: The Hardwick Era

[Mini GF]

Not really
If he has serious ambitions regarding senior coaching we're a graveyard for that at the moment
It's no reflection on his love for the Club or the players

If it surprises me then it surprises me. Not making it up.
Reasons-I knew him back in the day (admittedly last century) and he is fiercely loyal, he absolutely loves the GC to the point where I’m very confident he will retire here at the very least, he’d be hell keen on being here when it turns and I reckon he’d be want his kids to have their entire childhood here rather than uproot them.
So I’m surprised.

I was never excited about the idea. Why do you have to constantly be nasty in your references to The Coach.
The Club didn’t snare him. We didn’t snare him.

Be pretty hard to get him out of Melbourne

Old mate on 7 mentioned list management amongst other things he will do at St Kilda.
We wouldn’t have been offering that.
Anyway I’m so indifferent to this news. Don’t care.

Says a lot about our club that we can’t get anyone to come up here that has an offer from any other club.

Unless we’re the only suitor, or they want to come home to the Gold Coast we’ll never win.

Pretty confident Eddie will go to the blues and Burgoyne will stay with the hawks now.

These blokes have lives in Melbourne. It is hard to uproot them to move to the GC. Unfortunately the world doesn't begin or end with footy.

Yeah- not sure how a guy like Burgoyne with teenage kids could contemplate a move up here

 

[Brenton87]

I'd love to see Burgoyne in Suns colours, hopefully it comes into fruition

 

[SandyToes]

Correct

To force a better negotiating position with his current employer perhaps

And get a free holiday on the coast.

I wonder if the club would go after Brendan McCartney as either senior assistant or coaching director.. former teacher was at geelong in their peak years went to the bulldogs done the hard yards for beverage to win the premiership and been at Melbourne but doesn’t obviously get along with Goodwin

That's a long flight in economy

 

[eppo67]

No chance anyone from the Suns coaching division will get a senior gig whilst we fail so bad on the field

Absolutely l'll be flabbergasted if he gets it

 

[GcSunsfan]

Missed out on the Freo job will he stay at the Suns now or head off to Essendon

Poor Solly
Hopefully he can hang in there with us until we get some success
A true Club champion who's never worn the red gold and blue

Love Solly, bet he's feeling a touch hurt but his time will come.

Noooo thank you, everywhere he has been the club has been rubbish. Melbourne 11-13 Essendon 13-14, Carlton 15-17

 

[thurls64]

I was told John Blakey was locked in to come in that role

 

[thurls64]

It would not surprise me to see Kevin Sheedy pop up in our corner in 2020 either

Needles Sheedy thinks Essendon have had a bad trot in the media, he would melt under the pressure of being a Sun

Really that's interesting.
