John Longmire: Asistant Coach??

[FIGJAM]

Mail is that he maybe 2IC to Mick next season.

Could be a very good appointment. Almost had the Aints job and is rated at the Swans.

Thoughts on Horse??

 

[The Dawes]

We want an experienced Assistant to replace McKenna and he fits the bill.
​

Could be a great get IMO.​

​

 

[didaka]

Would be a good get.

Rated good enough by certain people to have a main role.

 

[jerry springer]

he is basically the coach of Sydney,so he he would bring a ton of experience and new ideas

 

[Bloben]

Would be very happy for Horse to replace Bluey. I reckon he still is very much after a senior position and after a few years at Sydney would benefit from working under the longest serving coach in the AFL. He is also probably the most qualified of all the possible candidates.

 

[MagpieTrav]

Would be happy with this if it happened.. I would not be happy if we choose Gary Aryes..

 

[Quicky]

As long as we don't adopt the negative approach to footy that Swans have over the last few years.

 

[Jabso]

Seems to be happening a lot. The next coach in waiting gets overlooked so he moves to make his CV look more diverse.

 

[Optimax]

sounds good Longmire seems an intelligent man and has some coaching potential so yeah id be happy with that

 

[Jabso]

Still a very sketchy rumour, don't get your hopes up too high.

They are also looking at getting harvey in a junior development role

They are also looking at getting harvey in a junior development role

can anyone outline who does what...

e.g mick malthouse is the coach...
what is brad scotts exact role? etc....


who will replace richo? he was regarded as one of the best development coaches in australia?

 

[Jabso]

Brad Scott used to be a development coach who focused on the senior players but last year he moved to a more active assistant role. I think he is the opposition scouting coach.

Carrots is the forward coach.
Neeld the defensive coach.
Brown the VFL coach.

McKenna I think was the midfield and "senior" assistant coach (Second in charge).
Richardson was head of development who I think wasn't heavily involved in matchday (but was at VFL level)

 

[Vampire013]

I would be against it if he brought to Collingwood the crap style of football that Sydney play.
I would not want to watch that crap every week.
I want to see fast free flowing attacking football with lots of goals.
Leave the negative defensive crap to Sydney.

 

[Skade]

He might bring a plan B.

 

[MagpieDean]

He might bring a plan B.

I suspect G.McKenna and G.Brown already have a plan B, but getting the Great One to use it is a different matter entirely.

 

[Jabso]

Horse is under contract, but the word is that syd would let him go if he really wants to go. Yes Jabso has become a rumour monger.

 

[Mango Fruit]

I have heard up here in Sydney that Bangers (Harvey) and Horse (Longmire) go well on PIES

 

[grimlock]

Will cost you a 2nd round pick

Don't know how true the rumour is, but with Roos re-signing a contract till 2011 last week, he may see his future here as very limited.
