Peter Schwab - again.

[Gary Shadforth]

Thanks, BUBBALOUIS.

No apology needed, we've had a stimulating debate.

I think you're like me, cant wait till '04 season arrives.

Good luck, Gary.

The question really is can anyone else get more out of this team than Peter Schwab next season ? I don't think so and neither does the board (Dermie included).
I think the point is we can't put anyone (of those AVAILABLE) into Schwabbies role for next season and be reasonably confident they can take us up to for example top 4.
As we all know the clock is well and truly ticking on this Hawthorn team which is why I'm referring to next season.

Hear! Hear! Saaam, well put.

Gary.

The key word is AVAILABLE. Irrelevant to my original question are names proffered below:-
...
Gary O’Donnell, unavailable, still contracted to Brisbane.
...
Mark Harvey, unavailable still contracted to the Bombers as an assistant. Maybe he is too much of ‘one of the boys’ as ueber1 suggests.
...
Maybe available -

Robert Shaw, certainly not a contemporary coach, done nothing in recent times. (I could imagine a lot of flack flying around amongst supporters if he were appointed, given the tone of a lot of the discussion on this Board).
...

I believe that in most of assistant coach contracts, there is an escape clause that allows them to leave any time to take an AFL senior coaching position.
