If Simmo does go, I reckon it'll be end of next year. They'll want to give him a couple of years with the new assistants to see what he can do and WCE aren't exactly a club known for sacking coaches.
I’d say yes, the way it usually looks. Unless the resignation is prompted by a serious medical issue
Let's call it a "Langer resignation" or "Langer" for short, i.e., a sacking masked as a resignation to ensure all parties save face, but "we" all know better!
Maybe Ross Lyon, Saints to Freo?
Round out that group to a top 5 with our coach included and you’d be 99-1 odds to get it right

No. It is rare for a coach to resign
I cannot remember a Cats coach ever being sacked mid-season and I can remember back to Peter Pianto days.

Cats coach makes HUGE call on future after failed finals campaign
I think unless Geelong fall off a cliff this year, Scott will stick out his contract, potentially with a handover period in his final year if they haven't won a GF in that time. I wouldn't expect any rash decisions out of the cattery given how well they've been run over the last 15 odd years.
Fair call. You'd think WCE will have an orderly "transition" plan for Simmo rather than a knee jerk old fashioned sacking.
Yeah, I couldn't see a sacking happening, especially for a premiership coach. They wanted to re-sign Worsfold ffs and he had to tell the club himself it was over.
