said Russell is an exciting appointment for the club.

“Jordan has numerous years’ experience in a range of roles, which is really attractive to us,” Rawlings said.

“His strong character along with his experience from a playing and coaching perspective will be invaluable in helping us build on our talented list.
“He is a natural leader and he will be a great asset to our coaching group.”

Russell played 125 AFL games for Carlton and Collingwood from 2005-2013, before transitioning to Footscray in the VFL as a player and development coach.

He featured in the club’s 2014 and 2016 VFL Premierships, as captain in 2016 and on-field captain in the 2014 Grand Final.

has been offered a coaching position at NM, in charge of the midfield.

he was supposed to be coaching Footscray in the VFL next year, but will most likely accept the position at NM

he will be a great addition to the coaching panel.

Heard it here first ^^

 

[The Nostradamus]

All coaches locked in for the seniors

now just need a head VFL coach

 

[The Butcher]

Bulldog Moore replacement'ish? Let us hope he's an upgrade.

 

[Harris 10]

could kick a footy jordan

 

[speedy]

Did the dogs let him during the year or did we poach him?

Replying to my own post,
He was appointed midfield coach but was let go during 2020, then re-appointed as VFL coach in October by the dogs.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Hopefully no one sought him out and he applied completely independent of an external pressures or input.

Have the Bulldogs insisted we trade for him?

We’d be the only club without a vfl coach and it’s December

plus a lack of vfl players recruited/signed for next year which means we will be stuck mainly with teenagers who weren’t selected in the draft next week

About 50 AFL assistant coaches got the ass.

So hire 1 as the vfl head coach
Preseason is about to start

vfl program seems very unorganised

Do you know this for a fact? 10 Vic clubs, I'm guessing a couple of others might've punted their equivalents of Sexy Loader but not sure.

Not too concerned with our VFL list. After the draft we can look at targeting some players who can help forge a decent VFL unit based on their position or leadership.

Would hope decent characters like Tom Murphy are considered in this scenario.

Welcome to the greatest team of all.
PS don’t look at cunners ..... ever

Hey KC - let JZ have this.

He’s lost without Jmac to bag

Shut up.

He probably saw it on Seek. Still waiting for a response to my application.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Shut up.

^settle down nuffy

 

[Event Horizon]

Most of his coaching experience has been around VFL. Up until the last year or two. Hopefully he has enough experience for the role.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

^settle down nuffy

Serious question though. The DFA period isn't over for another two weeks and the draft hasn't occurred, so why would you expect our VFL side to have completed most of its recruitment?

We haven’t even announced 1

And players previously signed ala Tom McKenzie, toby pink have signed elsewhere
