Not-a-cluey Ratten to GWS as an assistant?

[PINNACLE HEALTH]

I'm not starting a rumour , just something that came to mind that may happen.

Silvagni is heavily invovled at GWS whom is mates with Ratten & now that Chocco Williams has departed to Richmond GWS are on the hunt for an assistant/developer.

It might be a good fit?

Well they'll need to get someone to do the match day coaching, who else is on the market?

 

[Lord Nicholson]

If I was Ratten, this is absolutely what I'd do. The GWS senior coaching position will be the most coveted when Sheeds is finished, which you would suggest is the end of next year. Proper resources, great kids, they're all signed up, solid playing-assistant system that they've set up, and the AFL at your back all the time.

Port is a mammoth task.

 

[reincarnated]

He doesn't have a good record in developing young kids. So they won't entertain him one little bit.

I'm not starting a rumour...but let me create and circulate information that is not based on fact.

I'm not starting a rumour, but I'm just asking if this is a possibility and not presenting it as a fact in any way, shape, or form.

Don't see any problem with the OP's work here.

[stugots]

Such a move has been discussed a bit in talk-back & I like the idea as it will allow Rat's to get out of the spotlight for a year or 2 & keeps his hand in the game.

Taking over Port would mean pressure is on from day dot & that might not be what he needs right now.

i am hoping your correct, imo not the right fit for the giants.

 

[The 747]

Noooooo I like the Giants, I like the way they play. Dont do it!

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I think they’ll be looking for a bit of a spruiker / personality as well for when Sheeds is gone. Not sure Ratten is that man.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Despite only being their second year, Bluey has copped a fair bit of heat this year though.

Cant. Stop. Laughing.

He will get a gig somewhere.

 

[Mutant]

I guess an option may be to come West, if Burns leaves WCE, then it may be an opportunity for him to get out of the spotlight in Melbourne. Did him and Woosha work together at Carlton?

 

[pazza]

Sheeds would in a heartbeat.

Ratts was still playing when Woosha was an assistant coach at Carlton.

 

[choo]

The assistant at GWS will have to wait 3 years.
Sheedy will coach as long as Malthouse.
Ego v Ego

 

[Enviable Tradition]

My prediction. Ratts will be overlooked by Port, will 'withdraw' from the race and immediately signed up by GWS. Then everyone will rabbit on about Ratten withdrawing from the race and port being a rabble etc. etc.

 

[Cudi_420]

I'd love Ratten to come back to Melbourne to be honest.

Cheerleading assistant maybe.

 

[Father Jack]

I'm not entirely certain why any team would want him. He's good at press conferences after being sacked, but what else? I'm sure GWS and Port will pretend to be interested though.

Burns, Cameron, Simpson*.

* My pick.

I actually would of thought the opposite. The baord screwed him over with the help of the media. He's done a better job than a number of coaches still in a job and a better job than a couple of assistants who got picked up after being sacked last season in Craig and Harvey.

Would be a very handy pick up for any club and I'm willing to bet that more than GWS will be talking to him.
