Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XIV

[EnolaGay]

Yeah he had our forwards in '09 I think, he might've been oppo analyst in '10?

As an assistant I think he was highly rated and liked by most/all playing groups.

 

[eth-dog]

Odds that Ratten is the permanent coach?

 

[ILikeCheese]

Members calling into SEN wanting Robert Harvey as head coach 2020.
Ratten seems an obvious choice.

 

[Beerfish]

Ratten should hold out for an offer from norf.

 

[Albertross]

Ratten should hold out for an offer from norf.

So he can turn it down. Just for the lols.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Clarkson out of contract next season? If it all goes pear shaped with Woosha next year we should do everything to get him.

North,Saints,Blues will have their new coaches which would leave us in the box seat

 

[Zach Package]

Seriously good areas from Gorringe

 

[BrunoV]

Ratten confirmed as Interim.

That'll have Saints winning their next few if we go off what else has happened to interim coaches this year.

I'm going to say the Saints have no bounce in them. Maybe 1 game.

They've performed to the expected level, particularly given key injuries.

They're a bottom 4 side.

Worth it for the Hawkes board meltdown alone

Finnis always saying Saints finals are a must 2020.

Good luck next coach, no pressure at all.

 

[Runk]

Finnis always saying Saints finals are a must 2020.

Good luck next coach, no pressure at all.

If I was Ratten, who is basically auditioning now, the first thing I'd say to Finnis is to 'park your ideas on finals in 2020.'

That club is a headcase.

That is probably for the fans, I doubt their internal view is that rosey

It's just unneeded, I get they need to look strong and big talk to the supporters but maybe leave the definite talk out of the hero speech.

[ghostdog]

Scary news about Jack Higgins, hospitalised with a brain bleed.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Scary news about Jack Higgins, hospitalised with a brain bleed.

I'm sure there'll be plenty of memes made about his dumb demeanor but yeah, that's scary.

Hopefully he's fine and will be back playing footy soon

 

[GUMBLETRON]

Makes you wonder how often that kind of thing happened even as recently as the 90s.

 

[rumply]

Switched on SEN a couple minutes ago & they've got that most sanctimonious of FLOGS Dave Colbert (or whatever the ******* spelling is) back on. Yeah nah.

 

[doug85]

Nice Nat in trouble again injury wise, sounds like could be done for year yet again.

And west coast just handed him a 3 year contract extension

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

That is probably for the fans, I doubt their internal view is that rosey

It's about time clubs stopped telling unnecessary and obvious lies to it's supporters. I'd imagine few St Kilda supporters really believe finals next year is a likelihood. Of course they all hope, but that's different.

Just don't say anything rather than that, they just create pressure from the lie they told, regardless of what they believed internally, because the supporters and media hold them to account for those lies.

Tuned into MMM Aussie while he was on .

 

[Blind Turn]

Scary news about Jack Higgins, hospitalised with a brain bleed.

Haven’t looked into the story as yet but if it was a brain aneurysm then he’s;
a) lucky to be alive
b) lucky not to have permanent neurological issues

Not sure it's an aneurysm. I doubt it would be?

That guy is living in a world of pure imagination.

Bleeding on the brain rather than an aneurysm & listening to Balm yesterday, while it's still a very serious issue it's not a life or death type scenario.
