Good for her, but and this isnt to sound mean or anything, but what was her role at the club? i havnt heard anyone say like (when normally they lose a coach to another team) players or people will say he/she was great at such and such for X players etc, unless thats been said ive missed it, and hope i can get filled in on that
Think she was just in development on a part time basis behind our already existing coaching panel, gives her a taste but in reality probably isn't a great loss to the club.

Only in the role 10 months.
Hard gig for a woman. Early days, but probably started at the the best club, as far as culture goes, to delve into the coaching world.
she definitely read the game well , but that is only half the battle these days.

Ah fair enough, as mentioned good for her getting a HC spot
Pretty much how I feel. Part of the role was Geelong being a good corporate citizen opening up a chance for female development. Her getting a Coaching role shows that it probably has worked.
She saw our AFLW side come within a kick or two of a Grand Final berth this year - are the Eagles that much further back in the pack?

She wasn't coaching or aflw aside though and I don't think that was an option for her
True enough. But even the mere association with the Geelong Football Club will loom larger on her CV than anything else, eh?

Than a senior coaching gig?
Well naturally that comes later. But the GFC, CTTF! We play the game as it SHOULD be played!
NOTE: I have been on the beers. It probably shows.
I think it depends on her long term aspirations. It potentially puts her on a different pathway. The AFLW has a different level of money which brings a different level of professionalism. We'll see in the coming years if coaches jump both ways between the leagues.
I wonder how much does a Senior AFLW coach get paid relative to a line coach at AFL level

Articles about salaries means the usual grain-of-salt disclaimer applies, nevertheless:

She was on at least $100,000 at Geelong (probably a little more), with $50k of that paid by the AFL as part of the Women’s Coach Acceleration Program.
Cash splash: Pricey Pearce the cost of chasing success
Daisy Pearce is the shot in the arm West Coast’s flailing AFLW program needs, and if it took a Jerry Maguire-esque, ‘show me the money’ type deal? Well, it will still be worth every cent, writes Ben Smith.
