North Melbourne Sign Nathan Buckley as Coach

[AG]

So you admit to my earlier point that your club is going nowhere

You're coming across a w***er. I hate it when people say most clubs in the bottom 8 are going 'nowhere'.

What's with Sydney fans constantly trolling North Melbourne threads?

Just a guess but... Carey, Longmire, 1996, Shannon Grant. Perhaps a little of Greg Miller's ill-conceived SCG home games thrown in as well.

^^Glen Freeborn 1996 GF, second quarter.

If this is indeed true and is announced within the next week or two, what happens to Crocker?

It depends on if Buckley wants him as an assistant or not. Coaches typically have the say in who they take on as an assistant and the assistants usually rotate like a merry-go-round to get as much experience as possible.

I am sure there will be some sort of coaching role for him somewhere.

This is a funny thread.

All that has happened is that at the 1st meeting between the 2 parties, Bucks has said he wants a senior coaching job next year.

What would happen then is Nth would go away and prepare a thorough and professional presentation and proposal for Buckley, and then Buckley would make up his mind after this meeting.

No agreement has been made yet, as no club/company signs an employee on the spot after the 1st meeting between the 2 parties.

As bucks confirmed they met on Friday and that was their fourth such meeting ...

Welcome to last week, sunshine. Bucks has met with NMFC FOUR times.

The saddest day in the history of the Collingwood football Club except when Pants died.

Haha I was thinking of 96 but I'd forgotten about Shagga.

Aussie gun seems like a good poster though

Well, it is not confirmed yet. But don't be sad even if it is true, sometimes the chicks have to leave the nest. Maybe one day he will go back, it would be good for him to broaden his experience.

Going to close the thread for the time being given that it is far too much rumour and speculation and nothing to do with fact. Will re-open it once it officially comes out.
