That's a massive upgrade on what we had this year.

Mego Red · Oct 26, 2020

I think we'll see some dramatic improvement with that lot.

Happy with that coaching group, huge improvement from where we were. And a bigger focus on development too which is very important with the makeup of our squad over the next couple of years.

Danger in Texas · Oct 26, 2020

Yeah I’m happy with that lot. Seems like a good bunch of coaches for a developing side

Much more comfortable with Godden as SANFL coach rather than mids coach, too

Mr_Moogle · Oct 26, 2020

Wonder if this means Binuk got sacked?

TRP1996 · Oct 26, 2020

We were all worried about Burton sneaking back in with a fake moustache, turns out it was Godden we had to keep an eye on.

Wouldn't think so. Binuk doesn't have anything to do with game day or coaching

relapse · Oct 26, 2020

Clarke has been here so long that I literally can't even remember anyone else ever coaching our rucks.

I know it just sounds like Chris Sheedy's role is very similar to what Binuk has been doing.

Rendell just confirmed this on trade radio

I Lost My Keays · Oct 26, 2020

Stoked with the lineup

Or anything of any use. Pure snake oil in this game.

MRB37 · Oct 26, 2020

Not sure we'd be letting Binuk go with a month to go until the draft.

Wah? Sorry, am I missing your gist here ... are you saying Binuk is a useless snake oil salesman?

MRB37 · Oct 26, 2020

MRB37 · Oct 26, 2020

Sounds like he might have just had his role scaled back if he's only working during trade period. He did our VFL scouting as part of his duties as well.

Yeah, nah, this comment won't age well at all.

How we going so far with his particular 'expertise'?

If I remember correctly, he came in around the time of live trading of draft picks being introduced (seeing he was primarily focused on that area and potentially some scouting/other trade work) and our live trading has been lights out good.

ftmch · Oct 26, 2020

Is it clear where Binuk will fit in relation to Chris Sheedy?

EDIT: Sheedy to come under Binuk I'm guessing.
