No others are worthy
I notice the buses got a mention, footyhead will be happy with that.
That article is just a rehash of well known rumours couched in rhetorical questions and some worthless, sensational journalistic opinions. It also proves that he reads BF because he used the word "silly" a number of times.

Port Magpies, Redbacks
I noticed that we shouldn't get a rookie such as Cameron because Primus was also a rookie.

I guess we also shouldn't get a right handed coach because Primus is right handed.

Unless I'm mistaken, we generally didn't think Primus had been a standout assistant prior to us appointing him... perhaps he struggled as head coach (in part) because he just wasn't that good and didn't really have that much experience. I haven't heard a single serious assistant mentioned as yet with as little a coaching resume as primus had prior to him filling in in 2010.

But it is a 'dead end' situation for a rookie coach. I wonder who was the one of the drivers to get us to the 'dead end' position.:rolleyes:

Rucci continues to take the scatter gun approach to his frustrated hyperbole.

There seem to be enough mumblings now that Eade has not ruled himself out, but perhaps we are not yet convinced that Cameron isn't the best option.

Wonder which senior person they have in mind to support someone like Cameron.

So possibilities could be

Eade (Senior Coach), Cameron stays at Hawthorn
Cameron (SC), Eade (Senior Assistant)
Cameron (SC), insert anyone else SA +/- skype
Is Eade as an assistant really a possibility? I know he is a "strategist" at the Pies, but apparently he is contracted for another 2 years. I understand that they would allow him to break that contract for a senior coaches position, but why would they allow him to break his contract for a role that is not really a promotion of sorts?

Same with Cameron, I'm sure the Dawks would only let him go for a senior role, not an assistants role.

I'd go as far to say that we have absolutely no chance of getting both.
