Mark Williams as asst coach?

[pickettline]

Should North try Mark Williams as a new assistant coach. I understand that he is a great teacher/mentor for the younger players in the group. Worth a look?

 

[The Nostradamus]

yeah I like the idea. Strong figure that won't be afraid to voice his opinion. Plenty of knowledge to impart

I'd say yes ... but what happened at Richmond?!?!?!?

 

[deano28]

Does his best work with the kids , he'd be a great development coach . But I'd rather we get John Blakey in for that role

That's why I'd say no

S**T game style has hurt Richmond as much as anything else . You've got Reidwoldt sitting in your forward 50 get it in quick & the bloke will kick 80 goals , but No Dimma would rather chip sideways/ backwards ... Possession game only gives teams time push back and clog up space . Unbelievable when you think about it

 

[scooby1279]

agree with development coach but no need for him to sit on the boundary line like he did at Richmond.

 

[King Corey]

Yes a voice of dissent at North would go down well.

Reminds me of Brad Scott. North always had 3 talls up forward, but instead of kicking it in long and fast, we p1ss fart around, giving the opposition time to get back and flood our FL.

Never take an assistant from a club that has struggled to develop or achieve, there are reasons beyond the players that it is that way. He also underachieved with what was an exceptionally talented group of players at Port. Not saying he has no value, or might not have learnt or grown from his past experiences, just don't want us rolling the dice to find out.

 

[Horizons_00]

No....

 

[Jack Bradley]

No

John Blakey will only come to North as head coach not an assistant and we know that's not going to happen get Choco Williams to North to coach the new VFL side

 

[Palmezzz]

Would absolutely love Choco but unfortunately after his tenure at Richmond I don't want him. Also just had to post this. Legend!

 

[Shinboner roo]

I know jake batchelor and played against him a few times. Good bloke and always up for a chat. I once asked him who a real slave driver amounst the coach's what's dimma like ect. He said chocco goes psychotic and is a nutcase if you miss a kick or handball at training! So our disposal by foot and hand sureley wouldn't be good for his health

 

[Heaps of fun]

I feel like he's a moron that could help us turn Dumont into the next Reece Conca. Hard pass.

 

[gokangas]

This is a difficult one for me. I reckon he has a lot of experience to offer but can he be managed? Seems like the sort of bloke that would want to run the place.

[arden station]

There's a reason GWS got rid of him - he gave a lot of people the sh!ts

[Shermanator]

Too old school.

You gotta pat them on the bum now not grab them around the throat.
It's no wonder the young lists didn't gel with him.

 

[chaelsonnen]

Get Paul Roos or Lethal.
Roos to coach the Roos. I like it.

And a decent player in his time......although I witnessed a young Brian Wilson give him an absolute bath one day at Arden St. Still shake my head at the decision to let him go.

Was that around the same time he started the Beach Boys?
