Well if people can start a Sack Brad Scott petition, I can start a petition to appoint Shawry as the man to coach us. I say appoint him because:
I remember that the Sydney people swung the matter in Paul Roos favour, over the apparently previously appointed (verbally) Terry Wallet and that proved to be a very smart move by those Sydney people.
So let's get on board the Shawry for coach bandwagon. (now that I'm on it he's probably stuffed )
- The team is playing a new invigorated tough uncompromising brand of football.
- On his own admission he is a defensive minded coach and the players seem to be responding to that style.
- Three wins out of four is a great start, but of course that's a very small sample.
- Two of those wins were against genuine contenders, Richmond and Collingwood, though I hear the naysayers point out both of those clubs had good footballers out through injury.
- It seems that the players really like him.
- He unashamedly wants the job.
- He looks very composed in the coaching box at all times.
- He's happy to eat lollies in the most public of places and doesn't give a "you know what" about who sees him doing that. (Hope he's got a good dentist though he did play for the Pies and I don't think many Pies people have heard of dentists.)
- He's a premiership player.
- He was a battling half back flanker who understands much better what it is like to be a battler.
- He's nearly as ugly as I am, not that that is a prerequisite to be a good coach.
