He should have a very long leash because the list is toast. Clearly shown he can coach.

Hard to survive a long rebuild as a coach though.

Nisbett should go before Simmo. He signed his contract off.

I would give Simmo another year or two to at least start the rebuild or maybe he leaves for another gig? He can only coach who’s on the field, not his fault the powers at be wanted to go again with an old list.

Whoosh started the rebuild and Simmo then took it over at the start of the window just opening. Only fair to let him have a crack at building it up from the ground up.

Their elder statesmen are cooked and their young talent is non-existent. Tbh I'm not really sure what Simpson can actually do at this point to overcome years of terrible drafting and player development. Their list profile is shocking.
He never dropped underperforming players for years. He deserves the sack and hopefully no or minimal payout

Won a flag then went all-in for another one.

In retrospect it wasn't the right call.

Plenty been said that the Eagles wouldnt have won in 2018 without Sam Mitchell.

Check out how Sam is leading the Hawks and his style. Article on Fox

Mitchell providing opportunities to Newcombe and Ward on ball at the expense of midfield minutes to Tom Mitchell and O'Meara, their two best mids.

Playing them in their natural positions.

Meanwhile.........we look like Div 3 amatures playing old timers with opposition kids leaving them in the dust.

And the Hawks list isnt great.

During the week Simmo said that he didn’t think for one second of dropping Darling.

Now I know Jumping Jack has been a good servant for the Eagles, but if you didn’t give a serious thought about Jacks place in your side, it shows that you are prepared to make the tough decisions. Games for life.

Sure you may not need to drop Jack, but to not think about it ?.
 
This time you will have to do it without priority picks though.

Imagine some of the only times your club has been down you get given picks which allowed you to grab Chris Judd, Luke Shuey and Jack Darling.
You do realise if priority picks didn't exist we still would have had the picks that nabbed us Judd and Shuey. Darling would only have only had to get through North and Brisbane to get to us, such seems highly likely.

It's Sampi, Swift and most likely Lycett that go to different clubs.

Simmo has credits in the bank.
He's not getting sacked.

He's stuck in a shit situation he has no control over.

I think the issue is just the communication to fans.

Eagles fans seem pretty sensible. It's rebuild time.

Play the kids. Dont offer new contracts to Kennedy, Nicnat and Hurn.

Give them the respectful send offs they deserve.
