Coach Justin Longmuir Pt 2

[Grape Bear]

Great press conference from Justin. Good but not a great performance, not satisfied with that. Not getting caught up in outcomes or potential futures. Staying in the moment and focusing on the next game.

Need to. Lots sore boys from today will be getting on a plane to Antarctica to face a Hawks outfit looking to rebound.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Obviously Richmond is currently bottom of the ladder but the 2 concerns I have left regarding coaching we easily accounted for.

Won easily in the wet.

Killed them off turnover even if we lost clearances.

It's looking really encouraging.

 

[Freo]

He seems to be coaching well.

Next step is winning big finals, and there has been a mountain of work on the mental side of the game to set the players up.

Don’t think we can win the flag this year, but a prelim is realistic.

Hawks 2008, Baby Bombers, Yes. We. Can.

 

[Clive Kepler]

Long way to go but it's great that he's starting to repay some of the club's faith.

 

[Raz]

just need to see consistency.

For some reason it been a fremantle trait for 30 yrs. We play well, we beat top teams . then lose games we should win.


So trying to be hopefull . but the 30yrs of broken hearts is going to take some healing before i go full Purple Rain and beleive in Wharfie time

If Adam Simpson wanted to stay in Perth, is it possible JL would want him as a senior assistant at some point?

hopefully not

Our assistants are doing well

Adam cna go help coach the AFLW West coast

Hopefully we don’t lose Jaymie Graham through this situation tbh.

I don’t think replacing him with a similar standard Assistant Coach is nearly as easy as people on here think. We need to find someone who’s both willing to come to WA and is either without a deal for 2025 or who a club is willing release. More realistically we’re probably offering another club’s development coach a promotion. Don’t think there’s much to promote internally tbh - I believe our main line coaches are quite highly rated tbh but not sure what’s below that.

 

[Mogumber]

Reckon Cox will be the next coach.
Hopefully we can pay Graham what he is worth, as the Toast will have soft cap issues. Apparently they can adjust over 3 seasons though, with the payout to Simpson

According to Wellingham, coz won’t leave Sydney.

And why would you? Stable, successful, likely the heir to Longmire in a few years.

If you were getting a $2mil severance payout would you go work with the lowly oppo down the road or go snort cocaine off some hot hookers bum in the Caribbean?

( not saying that’s what I’d do but it might cross my mind if I were in that position)

I honestly didn't realise it was a dichotomy but you've forced my hand. I'll take the 2nd option.

Now to get the $2m severance package.

I am not 100 % sure what a dichotomy is - but it does sound painful.
As good as the Caribbean Cocaine adventure sounds, if that is a requirement then I may stay on the couch this weekend !!

I'd choose option (a) but I haven't had the benefit of being exposed to West Coast culture.

I think if Graham was to go to West Coast we would look within and promote Mzungu to a line coach, potentially shuffling Boyd and Corey as we do it to keep it fresh for them.
Would allow us to place Corbett on as a development coach and keep him in the club.

Simmo said his family considered Perth home, NGL I'd take him if Graham left.

Me too…as a senior assistant and analyst he’d be tops

He was forwards coach at Hawthorn during a pretty good era.
Bit to work with, but he’d have a bit to work with here as well.

 

[Joao]

Not expecting Graham to get the job, tbh. Seems like he'd be 3rd in line at best given the relative reputations.

I suppose, but if you could pick which list to work with as a coach, surely nobody is taking West Coast over us right now?

Good point, but dollars speak sometimes.

 

[Joao]

Good point, but dollars speak sometimes.

True, but I feel like that is going to be less of an issue in the short term given they've got $1m (+tax) allocated to Simmo pounding margaritas on the beach over the next little while.
