Robert Shaw Going Home

[Cisco Kid]

On SEN that hes going back to Melbourne... any thoughts .. replacements

 

[Lach72]

Geez, Neale Daniher would've been handy.

Sheedy? Not like we don't have any money

 

[dominguez]

Bondy's role has increased so we might not need to replace him?

Might need to replace Bond though, I think he is no longer an assistant but I'm sure he'll still have a role on match day.

Daniher would have been very nice to have back. I'd suggest we look outside the Essendon sphere, though. Maybe we can approach Robert Walls?

 

[Freo Shark]

Not surprising given his wife is there and Rosich is revamping the footy dept under Bond. We probably were top heavy management wise.

Perhaps theres a position for Shaw heading up an enhanced Melbourne Office including drafting, sponsorship etc??

Peter Bell ?? for either role ???

Im thinking micale might be a chance as well... just a whisper !!!

See, someone goes too far and we all lose an eye.

I doubt he'd be keen.

This is the way it stands at the moment:

GM - Football Operations: Robert Shaw
Coaching staff on the link as I can't be arsed formatting the cut and paste

http://www.fremantlefc.com.au/TheClub/CoachingStaff/tabid/8649/default.aspx

Bond is also listed as GM of list Development, so It's safe to assume that Smart and Lloyd come under him

 

[Bradesmaen]

I'm up for it.. I'll take us to the top!

What was Shaw's job apart from going to the media about MRP decisions anyway?

 

[dominguez]

lol, you like soft outside pretty boys so you don't get my vote! We'd end up with a bunch of blonde metrosexual pretty boys and breach the salary cap due to paying for all their manicures!!

lol, if only you knew me We'd have a bunch of skinhead soccer players from England who have been banned from soccer for their two footed leg breaking tackles

Being from Adelaide we might get the mullets and goaties ....

Just a bit off topic here but...i was just wondering if we had a ruck coach?? i was talking to a friend over the weekend and he seems to think we are one of the few teams who dont have one,

if not, do you think that it would help the % of taps to advantage for Sandi?? and if so, by much???

Earl Spalding = Ruck Coach...

Maybe the only club that doesnt have a ruckman as a ruck coach !!!

 

[tassie docker]

Cheers mate,

leave it to us to pay a bloke as a ruck coach who wasnt a ruckman

 

[freodog]

I've got a sneaking suspicion that Jacko will turn up as an assistant coach in some capacity. Lately he hasn't been slagging us off as much and whenever I catch a taxi with PR on when quizzed about his future he seems keen on an assistant role and says he won't be leaving perth he seems very coy about it.

Maybe he knows something we don't

God I hope not. If our players aren't confused already, they certainly will be with him. I've heard this rumour a couple of times too, but I simply can't find where he fits in? Scott has the backline, Wallis the forwards and German the midfield. Do our assistants need assistants now? I'm hoping he gets the gig at Souths.

Best news i have heard all day. There goes another part of the Essendon conenction and an A Grade wanktstick @ that. Look what he done @ Adelaide and Fitzroy, he is the most hated man ever at the AFC and i'm glad hes gone.

Now all the Essendon people we have left are Wallis, Solly, Kepler, Prior and Harvey.

Shaunny Mac to be an assistant coach isnt a stupid idea. Throw some money and tinkerBELL maybe.

I wouldnt mind the idea of Jacko @ all. Hes stupid as all hell but as a defensive coach could do the job fine IMO.
Hes a Freo boy too which helps.

Derbies would be much more interesting with some Chelsea Headhunters clad in purple!

So what do we do with Chris Scott? He's intelligent, doing a good job as defensive coach and has a contract? He's a Freo boy by my reckoning too - he's got one year up on Slappo at the FFC.

The Scott boys aren't from WA. Hows he a Freo boy???
And FWIW he is doing a sterling job with that backline, its about as leaky as an old hose @ the moment.

So Pav isn't a Freo person? This 'Freo person' crap is just that - crap. Do you consider yourself a Freo person wiz? You're not a WA person IIRC, so how can you be a Freo person?

All reports suggest he's doing a good job with the young guys and he is very well respected. Show me a backline that's working well in any of the bottom 4 sides. He's had Grover, McPharlin and Hayden all missing at various stages throughout the year. He's done well with the resources available to him.

Especially as the midfield has, until the last few weeks, been comprehensively pantsed on a weekly basis...
