2nds Jaymie Graham appointed head coach of East Perth

[ziad]

If that happens is think we'd be the only club in the league with that setup

Clubs don't have a reserves coach that have any substantial input with the senior side as they're busy taking care of the ressies

Swans and some other (I have only observed the Swans closely) use key assistance to coach reserves on game day to ensure they are on plan and developing for their roles.

I don't know the people being discussed well, but I recall the melt when Pyke was appointed. he turned out ok. So I have some trust in the club.

 

[royalsfan]

Luke Webster sounds like the favourite if you believe thewest especially being a former EP player too .

I would be more than happy for Webby to get the job

Geelong and Matty Knights do. I think it is extremely important to have
a) a proper senior coach with experience
b) a senior coach who also has strengths in developing youth
c) some one simmo can trust to implement the same game plan and not worry about just winning.
d) To have all of the above the East Perth Coaching position can't be given to another "First time coach" or coach with little experience. Why don't we get Schofield from Subi to jump ship? Bring back a Scott Watters.

Personally I think a WAFL coach could easily help out with the coaching of an AFL club.

Would love to get Schofield as the midfield coach.

Would love to get Schofield as the midfield coach.

He's locking down the backline and playing on the #1 opposition forward right now.

Wouldn't be against it though, he knows the players code.

I think your reply was said with tongue in cheek. Just making sure you realise that I'm talking about Schofield, the current Subi Coach.

Never underestimate the depth of Dark Sharks stupidity

Is it? (Not being a campaigner, just don't know much about him)

I was sort of expecting to see Selwood named as head coach tbh.

 

[Natho]

Any chance of Schofield coaching at any capacity at the eagles? Or is he under contract at subi?

Has 3 years experience as a head coach in the VFL plus he was an ex player at EP with strong family links.

Plus he wouldn't take a pay cut to become an AFL assistant coach.

 

[Chris_6678]

Schoey has no desire to become an assistant he loves being the head coach at Subi.

Heard that at the East Perth presentations last night they announced that reserves coach Luke Dwyer has taken up a development role at the Eagles. Very good coach and an excellent appointment.

 

[ChampRevesby]

Other coaching changes.

So cox becomes the midfield coach and we don't have a stand alone ruck coach. Got a feeling NN might do some of the ruck coaching next year. Petrie could also be up for that position.

Nic nat will be on his mobile to Petrie at half time to tell Petrie how to ruck.

Couldn't agree more. Absolute gun of a coach.

Can also draw some similarities with Brendan Bolton in terms of his development and career progression.

Dwyer used to teach me PE in senior school. Very good teacher, one of the best I had.

Let's hope you went to a good school then because if "one of the best" teachers I had was now coaching at AFL level I would cry. Even my best teacher would probably be shitbox, let alone one of the best...

Given the amount of money my parents paid to send me there, I hope it was a good school.

Luke is one of those "if only" players. 3 or four knee recos, I loved him as a player.

Always looking at the next play. Mark, handball, hurt the chasing player...

Smart, smart player...

Hope he fails dismally

Not really...I always hoped he's come back to us in some capacity
