As for coaches I would be looking seriously at Jarrod Schofield.

That was 2 years ago yes? Things may have changed now??We already did and he told us thanks, ............ but no thanks.
Maybe no quite that politely..... but he declined the offer none the less.
his son is about to be drafted to port so i highly doubt he's going anywhereThat was 2 years ago yes? Things may have changed now??
So far these ppl have left:
Rosa
Van Berlo
Warthrop
Some other analyst name escape me
Even long serving Paul tucker is moving on!
surely we are looking at replacing some of the roles.
And Simmo of course! And that previous Freo coach -not sure if it's worth paraphrasing anything he said?It's not the first time a Victorian has had their eyes opened once they came over to the West (Mitchell said similar things).
We also have Rosa to replace.Vozzo said in his interview on ABC, that we aren't replacing van berlo and will reshuffle coaching internally to cover.
Doesn't sound good, a necessity due to covid costs and 'letting go' of staff? Although with our large membership, surely we could afford a decent midfield coach?Vozzo said in his interview on ABC, that we aren't replacing van berlo and will reshuffle coaching internally to cover.
Problem is you would have to pay top $ to have a person move over to be an assistant. If family is involved and they are stuck here with boarder closures and such then its even harder.Doesn't sound good, a necessity due to covid costs and 'letting go' of staff?

He could possibly be a great addition to the coaching ranks ..

Socialism at is bestA lot of clubs will be reducing their coaching size - it's not about what we can afford, but the spending cap for off-field costs being imposed by the AFL.
Surely Simmo gets some credit with his assistants?Good experience for JG to go through the process if he's applying for the top job. Doesn't mean he'll get it but if he has ambitions to get to the top level I'm sure it'll be a valuable experience.
Simmo is the new Clarko in that respect. We are also a very well run organisation and I suspect that's both why coaches like to work with us but excel here.Surely Simmo gets some credit with his assistants?
So far Longmire & Pyke have or had a senior gig. A chance Graham could go for a top gig.
I hope the club uses that as a selling point to get coaches over as assistants.Simmo is the new Clarko in that respect. We are also a very well run organisation and I suspect that's both why coaches like to work with us but excel here.
When you're not winning games you're not likely to have your staff poached either. Need only look at what happened when Dimna cleared out his coaching staff at the end of the 2016 season and put some new minds around him. Now they're getting coaches pinched too.
