If we hire an inexperienced senior coach, are we setting him up for failure? With too much inexperience around him. At the footy club only P Gordon has experience in his role, virtually everyone else is a rookie in their roles. The old saying goes 'you can't put an old head on new shoulders' is nearly always true. Look at all the 'favourite sons' that have crashed and burned in the last few years. And many of them had old heads around them. We need a Neil Balme type around the footy dept. The young coaches will think that they can do it, you do need confidence, but if the confidence exceeds ability? That's sets them back and us.
