The Eagles made a horrible mistake by not only hiring Ken Judge, but not taking any other coaching applications for the vacant role.
Re: Neil Craig. There were reports that he had been given the senior coaching role, but when heard of the massive backlash from Eagle supporters he decided to pull himself out of the running.
Next time we need a coach, which I hope doesn't happen in less that 20 years we should ask someone who can see through things that personality tests and 2 hours interviews can never find out. For example Mick Malthouse was he first one to suggest Woosha to us. He knew the man very well. He knew Worsfold had the qualities to be a successful coach. To select a coach we need people with the knowledge of Malthouse or with the insight of people like Bobby Robson, the soccer coach of Newcastle (England). Six years ago Robson predicted that his personal interpreter and assistant coach (Jose Mourinho), would be one of the best european soccer coaches. Well yesterday this guy won the final of the UEFA CUP for his club (Porto FC), one of the most prestigious soccer competitions in the world. Robson knew that Mourinho was very keen to learn, had confidence in his ability, paid attention to detail, had strong personality and passion for the game and his work ethic was equal to the best. Exactly the qualities people with vision can see on Woosha.
