Don’t know he’s untried but I think he’s a player’s coach not unlike Fagan is for Us plus he’s great at building a list great get by the Kangaroos

One hopes that his debut as a senior coach goes better than his debut as a player.
Noble's debut AFL game for Fitzroy was in Round 6 1991 against Hawthorn at the North Hobart Oval. It didn't go very well. The Hawks went on a goal-scoring rampage, kicking a massive 36.15-231 to destroy the Lions (11.8-74) by 157-points, Fitzroy's worst ever defeat in their 100 seasons of AFL/VFL football.

Excited to have this bloke and Blakey on board
both seem very well respected in the industry
hopefully Roosy takes up a mentoring role also

The next messiah.
Interesting to see how it goes, considering he was aiming to be a CEO last month and is now head coach of the biggest rebuild in this club’s recent history.

I'd say the millions of dollars poured into Arden Street this week is the more telling factor.

Coaching options thin on the ground, it would seem, and North, taking a safe option in reaction to their previous reactive decision.

Collingwood's best assistant applied.
Unlike your best young talent though, we weren't able to facilitate an escape from the unfolding disaster at Fort Eddie's Ego.
Who was that?

Banger Harvey.
Hope he does well. I've always thought North were the media's easy target. For the budget he had, B.Scott was great. Can't wait to see them go alright under Noble/Blakey and co. Best of luck.

Of course North would take the cheap option who can multi task and perform both the head coach and head of football roles.
Really? About as stupid a comment as has been posted this year, which is saying something.

No, that's not what's happening.
I do note that your mob have fallen off a cliff since he left though.

He Has not set the world on fire in his roles assistant at Carlton and Collingwood.
For where North is at, and for organic development of their youth and rebuild, David Noble is absolutely the right guy for the Roos.
