New assistant Coach and with a bit of luck the next Senior Coach!

Im not sure I particulary like the man but that's probably because he gave me a "D" in phys-ed even though I turned up with my clothes every week. (The fact I was really crap at it didnt help)

Personal views aside he seems to be a good coach and did wonders with the 18's a few years ago and should be a good appointment.

 

[Kenny_01]

Great news IMO.

I don't know enough about him to comment, though that hasn't seemed to stop yak.

 

[rgauci]

Great to see some changes. I think this guy will be a great assistant to CC. Hopefully help guide us to top 4 by next year.

Look at St. Kilda, they finished 10th last year. Was considered a disappointing year for them. Looks like we might follow a similar path.

Don't know much about the guy other than he's highly regarded..

Good to see us get someone we targetted. Lets hope the trend continues into trade week.

I'll second that! The colonel usually get who he is after even if he has to bring home an extra or two.

If Muddy Waterman gets the Job at Easts will Broadbridge be his direct replacement or will we be chasing another assistant ?

 

[YAKUZA]

Waterman is gone and not necessarily to EF, in fact he may only be an outside chance compared to some of the other applicants.

 

[Brickie]

Wasnt there a Vic bloke by the name of Dunbar that was working in the box with us during interstate games this year, Connelly wanted to take him on full time if i remember rightly but the board didnt approve it. Maybe he'll get a gig if Waterman goes.

 

[Boomhauer]

I don't think he is senior coach material, but i do think he will be of great assistance to the coaching staff, especially in the tactical side.

if we cannot get an experienced coach at the end of next year the three candidates for me would be

Peter Sumich
Garry Hocking
